Refering to this page:
http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/installation/upgrading

At the end of the page, it says to refer to the next section, but the next section is for a 3.5.x to 3.6.x upgrade. I'm just trying to go up from 3.6.2 to 3.6.6.

What is the procedure? Does anyone have a link?

Hi,
for upgrading you need to run the following:

update/common/scripts/convertxmllinks.php -s your_siteaccess
update/common/scripts/updaterelatedobjectslinks.php -s your_siteaccess

and of course before the database update scripts

These are the steps I have used to update 4 eZ sites from 3.4 straight to 3.7.3.

Create database
Copy database from live site
Install eZ
Use eZ upgrade tool and phpMyAdmin to synchronize the old data to the new database structure
Manually set the "container" flag on the custom classes and folders for the system (there is probably a script for this)
Copy the templates from the live site, change ownership and permissions
Update override.ini
Update template priorities
Copy the stylesheets
Integrate new CMS into existing site

The only odd thing was that the variable name $name didn't work well with 3.7.3 and I used $nname instead

Install eZ
you mean the setup? Or what are we talking about?

Manually set the "container" flag on the custom classes and folders for the system (there is probably a script for this)
But where is this done?

/usr/bin/php update/common/scripts/convertxmllinks.php -s news_admin
/usr/bin/php update/common/scripts/updaterelatedobjectslinks.php -s news_admin

Look at this topic:
http://ez.no/community/forum/install_configuration/upgrade_from_older_versions_than_3_5_documentation_missing

Read carefully all upgrade documents. For 3.4 -> 3.5 yes you need to upgrade to 3.4.4
What scripts to run and in which order are described in upgrade docs.
