Upgrading from a Package-Based Distribution of Web Server 7.x

To upgrade from the package-based distribution of Web Server 7.0 (in Java ES 5) or 7.0 Update 1 (in Java ES 5 Update 1) to version 7.0 Update 6, apply the patches for the appropriate platform, as described in Upgrade in Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Update 6 Release Notes. Before downloading and installing the patches, you should review Migration and Upgrade in Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Update 6 Release Notes, also in Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Update 4 Release Notes.

Note that the upgraded installation is not exactly equivalent to installing the file-based ZIP distribution of version 7.0 Update 6 because it represents a package-based upgrade, not a file-based installation.
