- Download and extract a fresh copy of of drupal 5.6 into c:\work\smv\download\drupal5\. This will create a drupal-5.5 directory with the core drupal files extracted.
- Disable (offline) the bluehost original / production site using the Site Maintenance module.
- Upload via ftp the drupal-5.6 directories (all except sites, files) to bluehost /smv/prod/smv. This will overlay the core drupal code with the upgraded version on bluehost.
- Upload via ftp any updated modules/themes under from (C:\work\smv\download\drupal5\modules\) to bluehost /smv/prod/sites/all/modules/. This will put any upgraded modules/themese on bluehost.
- If disabled, login with url ending in /user to display the login screen. Need to login as user/1.
