Are there specific documents to run an in place upgrade from AEM 6.1 SP1 to 6.2? I did not have success when trying to unpack AEM 6.2 quickstart over the 6.1 crx-quickstart directory. Please advise.

Thank you

No you dont have to upgrade to SP2.

I followed the below steps and it worked for me without any issues.

1. Go to 6.1 folder and copy the 6.2 jar file

2. stop the 6.1 instance and double click on 6.2 jar

3. it started successfully with 6.2 version and prodinfo is shown properly as 6.2

Make sure you have the right version jar.

I copied the AEM_6.2_Quickstart.jar to the same directory as the AEM_6.1_Quickstart.jar , stopped AEM, ran the start command java -jar AEM_6.2_Quickstart.jar -r author,crx3,crx3tar,nosamplecontent. I'm not able to to doubleclick since I'm running on red hat 6 cli.

The initial AEM 6.1 installation I performed that doing the unpack. Not sure if this has anything to do with the upgrade process?

I know the jar file is correct because if I unpack jar file in a new directory it works: java -jar AEM_6.2_Quickstart.jar -unpack

I attached a picture to better show the directory.
