Resume 5.6.1 upgrade

[davidm3236497]

I had a typo in my startup script to resolve an issue with file handlers when starting up the new 5.6.1 jar for the first time. Is it possible to start the service with a flag to resume the upgrade from 5.5 to AEM 5.6.1?

Thanks

If it is publish instance you want resume rerun upgrade I would advise to start from beginning.  If it is author add [1] to start up or follow [2]. After upgrade completes remove [1]/[2] which ever you followed. More details how it works refer http://dev.day.com/content/ddc/en/gems/upgrading-to-56.html

* From crx explorer create/set the /var/upgrade/status/upgradesExecutor.forceUpgrades property to true.
* Stop and restart the com.day.cq.cq-upgrades-executor bundle from felix console
