Hi Steve, Thanks for your reply.

No, it shouldn't be a difficult upgrade. > I downloaded and uncompressed 2.5.5 from Plone.org (strange: it downloaded as a .tar.gz, but it wouldn't gunzip; had to rename it to just a .tar file), and it seemed like just a collection of Products. So I extracted its contents in my Products directory (in Linux), and this created a new "Products/Plone-2.5.5" folder. I suspect that's not the proper location: these need to overwrite the existing directories in Products/, but that doesn't easily happen in Linux when moving directories. So I had to delete all the existing, relevant directories in Products/ (without deleting anything else) before moving the extracted, new directories there. I then fixed ownership of the new directories (chown -R plone:wheel .), and restarted the ZEO cluster. I then had to go to Add/Remove Products on the Plone site, re-install a bunch of upgraded products (Archetypes, PasswordResetTool, etc., although this claimed to "upgrade" my installation of kupu v1.4.4 to 1.3.9?), and restart the cluster again. Unfortunately, after all that, Site Setup still shows my Plone site as "Plone 2.5.3-final", and the problems with folders still exist. I must have missed a step?
