During upgrade from 7.6.0 to 7.6.2 we receive this error at the midway point of the upgrade, the connectivity tests succeed when but when clicking OK to proceed from that dialog the patch installation fails. The following error is found in the install_log.log:

When checking login manually at the midway point, logging into Advanced UI with known correct credentials gives the error "The credentials you provided cannot be determined to be authentic"

There is also an error reported in futuretense.txt at login time:

COM.FutureTense.Common.ContentServerException: ContentServerException: (Unexpected runtime exception) Error code:GENERIC SERVER ERROR

At this point, if the 7.6.2 version of cas is undeployed, and the 7.6.0 version is deployed, then login with the same credentials succeeds.
