Hi @Alex 

When the prompt comes here

Existing installation directory:

Give the input as

/opt/atlassian/confluence

This should take your installation directory and replace it with 7.15.1 version.

Kepp the backup before you upgrade the instance

Thanks

Hi, 

I had the same problem recently, and the pasting of the directory, worked and managed to upgrade the installation. 

Additional Question perhaps you can help - To avoid this pasting of the directory in the future installations, did you perhaps change/modify a bin/config file in the system so that the correct directory is prompted immediately? 

I am asking because I am finding it strange that the directory shown on the installation is non-existent in the system. And it is definitely not the issue of the version because I installed the version twice before this particular time, and it did not show me the wrong directory on the other Servers. 

Thanks in advance.

@Alex ,

Is there a reason why you installation directory is different from your existing installation directory? Maybe that's something worth looking into.

Thanks,

Ben
