Total newbie here.  Ok, so I just installed 5.0.1 online (webhost4life), and as soon as I logged in as host it said "Update available".  So I clicked that, it sent me here, which led me to download the 5.1.0 Upgrade package .zip file.

Now what?

  • backup files and database
  • download upgrade package and unzip/upload onto your site hierarchically, overwriting existing files
  • browse your site.

I thought you had to replace the webconfig file in the package with the existing one on your website.

If you are upgrading from a version >= 4.6.2, please stand away from manually editing web.config, this will be done by upgrade wizard now.
