I am updating from 1.1.8 => 1.1.9 then I am doing the 1.1.10

The last time I upgraded I blew my site up and had to start again. Do I do the database first or last? Or don't matter.

Uninstall as many mods as you can, use the large upgrade package and do the upgrade. Then go onto the next and so on. This might help:

Thanks Bigguy. I have that in my favourites. I use a theme and already have many xtras that package manager don't work too good and it is much easier doing them manually(without the install errors). That way I can find a problem(hopefully) if it don't work.

If you installed all manually then just use the large upgrade and away ya go. :)
