plesk upgrade

[ashwin_acharya]

Hi guys,

I am trying to upgrade our server from plesk 7.03 to 7.5 on a win2003 platform. Now I have been successful in restoring the
backup file created on plesk7.03 to a plesk 7.5 installation in test environment(as the upgrade from 7.03 to 7.5 has been always disastrous for me) . But
the above thing is not tested in a live environment so I needed to
know will there be any problem if I do as I have explained above
or will it work normally .

Thanks

Ash

First of all you should install latest updates for Plesk 7.0.x BU
Update available from http://download1.swsoft.com/Plesk/Autoupdate/bu7.0.x_update051005.08.msi
After that you can create full backup and perform upgrade. At the time upgrade process is strong as it can be. Otherwise you will be able to install fresh Plesk 7.5.6 and restore backup.
