Restart the instance before installation if the instance is in update mode (when the instance was updated from an earlier version). Adobe recommends a restart if the current uptime for an instance is high.
Before installing, take a snapshot or a fresh backup of your Experience Manager instance.
Download the service pack from Software Distribution.
Open Package Manager and click Upload Package to upload the package. To know more, see Package Manager.
Select the package and click Install.
To update the S3 connector, stop the instance after installation of the Service Pack, replace the existing connector with a new binary file provided in the install folder, and restart the instance. See Amazon S3 Data Store.
Dialog on Package Manager UI sometimes exits during the installation of the service pack. Adobe recommends that you wait for error logs to stabilize before accessing the deployment. Wait for the specific logs related to the uninstall of the updater bundle before being assured that the installations is successful. Typically, this issue occurs in Safari browser but can intermittently occur on any browser.

Below is a list of features and capabilities that are marked as deprecated with Experience Manager 6.5.7.0. Features are marked deprecated initially and later removed in a future release. An alternate option is provided.
Review if you use a feature or a capability in a deployment. Also, plan to change the implementation to use an alternate option.
Area | Feature | Replacement |
---|---|---|
Integrations | The AEM Cloud Services Opt-In screen is deprecated since the Experience Manager and Adobe Target integration is updated in Experience Manager 6.5. The integration supports the Adobe Target Standard API. The API uses authentication by way of Adobe IMS and Adobe I/O. It supports the growing role of Adobe Launch to instrument Experience Manager pages for analytics and personalization, the opt-in wizard is functionally irrelevant. | Configure system connections, Adobe IMS authentication, and Adobe I/O integrations via the respective Experience Manager cloud services. |
Connectors | The Adobe JCR Connector for Microsoft® SharePoint 2010 and Microsoft® SharePoint 2013 is deprecated for Experience Manager 6.5. | N/A |
As Microsoft® Windows Server 2019 does not support MySQL 5.7 and JBoss® EAP 7.1, Microsoft® Windows Server 2019 does not support turnkey installations for AEM Forms 6.5.10.0.
If you are upgrading your Experience Manager instance from 6.5 to 6.5.10.0 version, you can view RRD4JReporter
exceptions in the error.log
file. To resolve the issue, restart the instance.
If you install Experience Manager 6.5 Service Pack 10 or a previous service pack on Experience Manager 6.5, the runtime copy of your assets custom workflow model (created in /var/workflow/models/dam
) is deleted.
To retrieve your runtime copy, Adobe recommends to synchronize the design-time copy of the custom workflow model with its runtime copy using the HTTP API:
<designModelPath>/jcr:content.generate.json
.
Users can rename a folder in a hierarchy in Assets and publish a nested folder to Brand Portal. However, the title of the folder is not updated in Brand Portal until the root folder is republished.
When a user selects to configure a field for the first time in an adaptive form, the option to save a configuration does not display in Properties Browser. Selecting to configure some other field of the adaptive form in the same editor resolves the issue.
