How to overcome "Failed to Merge Ears" error applying 6.5.16

[MarkAtArtech]

Greetings All,

I have encountered an issue trying to upgrade an AEM 6.5.12 JEE server running on Windows 10 Pro.

I was able to install 6.5.12 with Java 8.

To get the CFP installer to run, I had to add an Environment Variable "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS"  set to "-Dos.name=Windows 7".

I have updated the installed version of Java 11 with no change in the error.

Does anyone know the answer to this riddle?

The LCM Log is below.

Thanks

Mark

@MarkAtArtech 

The configuration step is failing on "Failed to merge ears" with the error msg - java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/io/FileUtils [0].

This missing class is provided by the commons-io-2.5.jar library but this jar is not present under <C:\Adobe\Adobe_Experience_Manager_Forms\configurationManager\lib > based on the classpath set in the ConfigurationManager.lax file.

You can mitigate the issue by copying this jar file from ..\sdk\client-libs\thirdparty.

Hope this helps!
