I see this requested all the time, so I figured I'd blog how I proceed with upgrading a DNN Instance.
If you're upgrading your DotNetNuke instance, here is a list of simple steps to follow during the upgrade process.
First tip, test the upgrade on a staging site first, pull a copy of the database and files down, try the upgrade, make sure all your functionality is still there. Then upgrade production (backup everything first)

I'm normally the sales and marketing person here at Engage, but as a former .Net developer I still dable with C# (mostly as proof-and-concepts and / or prototype apps) and I still work on the occasional client project using DNN. In using DNN 4.3.5 templates I ran across a weird bug I wanted to post to help anyone having the same problem. (Don't worry, I'm also reporting this to DNN in Gemini).
Here's the situation, I created a template of a site using 4.3.5. This site the template was created for had several pages and I choose to export content and was using a host level skin (not sure if that mattered with this bug). In one of the skin folders I had backed up the skin after making changes on the server to the stylesheet and had a zip folder in my skin folder.

This weekend I attended the Tulsa TechFest and had the opportunity to sit through the entire Ajax/Atlas track. While it wasn’t the focus of every presentation at the fest, I have decided to focus this post on the new Microsoft ASP.NET Ajax web development technology, which currently is out as a Community Technology Preview.
