I think I've looked everywhere for how to upgrade from 1.9.1 to 1.9.3 and I can't find anything. Is it as simple as downloading the 1.9.3 files, transfer them up to the server, then running install?

OK...I finally found the instructions, but they're not for 1.9.3 as far as I can tell. Is there a step by step for 1.9.3 upgrade? This is what I get when I try to install. http://arkansascycling.com/betaforum/install/default.aspx

Don't take it personally but that error is just basic ASP.NET knowledge, you have a long way to go. You can fix that problem by simply reading the information presented to you... turn custom errors off in your webconfig if you want to view ugly error messages remotely. Doing this will just get you to the actual error message, and then you'll have to work it out from there. I don't know anything about the 1.9.1 upgrade process, I've just been using YAF 1.9.3 from a clean install so I doubt i'll be able to help you any further.

I usually use the Simple Machines software, but couldn't this time due to server limitations. Maybe I'll just do a clean install of 1.9.3.

So now I'm working through the errors, which so far have all been permission based.
