Hi Howard,
Note that I am not an OC expert but I will try to answer your
questions the best I can.
*Question: Backup of what, exactly?* You should always do a backup of
your database and data files even if you have done that 100 times in
the past.
*Question: What permissions? *The permission you set initially when
you installed OC. Here is a link on how to install OC that could
futher help you with your permissions question:
http://doc.owncloud.org/server/4.5/admin_manual/installation.html#ubuntu-debian
and a simpler version for Ubuntu is here -->
http://forum.owncloud.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6713
*What files ? *The new upgrade files you just downloaded
*How do I do this ? *After you are done backing up your database and
Data files copy and paste your new upgrade files into your OC
installation directory
* How do I know that they are "correct" ?* If after you've done all
the steps below and you load your page and said upgrading your OC
instance :) is all a matter of testing it it does not hurt to try.

Hi,
I'm trying to understand the following instructions which are
somewhat perfunctory:
Update is to bring an ownCloud instance to its latest point
release, e.g. ownCloud 4.0.6 ? 4.0.7.To <http://4.0.7.To> update
an ownCloud installation manually, follow those steps:
. Do a backup.
Question: Backup of what, exactly?
. Unpack the release tarball in the owncloud directory,
i.e. copy all new files into the ownCloud installation.
. Make sure that the file permissions are correct.
Question: What permissions? What files ? How do I do this ? How do
I know that they are "correct" ?
. With the next page request the update procedures will run.
Question: What does "page request" refer to ? What "procedures"
are being referred to?
Thanks,
Howard
