To upgrade your Concrete5 installation from a previous version, do the following
(**note, if you are running a version before: 5.3.2 you must first upgrade to 5.3.2 and only then will automatic updates behave. **).
Archive your database and your web root...just in case something should go awry.
When ready, replace your "concrete" directory with the "concrete" directory contained in the latest version downloaded from SourceForge.
Go to http://www.yoursite.com/index.php/tools/required/upgrade (Note: if this does not work, try http://www.yoursite.com/index.php/tools/required/upgrade.php)
Make sure to follow any pre-upgrade instructions (for example, Concrete5.0.0a4 requires a jobs/ directory be created in your webroot.)
Finally, when ready, click the Upgrade button.
*NOTE: In order to upgrade to 5.5+ you must have upgraded to at least 5.4.2.2!
