- Installing patch BZ-1113339 on top of the patch for EAP 6.2.4 results in a following conflict. But as per article [[1]] (https://access.redhat.com/solutions/275683) BZ-1113339 was released after EAP 6.2.4 though, so the install order according to is correct.:
[disconnected /] patch apply /path-up-to/BZ1113339.zip'
Conflicts detected: org.jboss.as.web:main
Use the --override or --preserve arguments in order to resolve the conflict.
