I tried upgrading DNN from 4.9 to 5.5, step-by-step as the www.godaddy.com website suggests. This ended up creating an error, so I erased the new version of DNN, and restored the backed-up, old version (4.9.0). However, I forgot to backup the database as well, so that now seems to be stuck in 5.2.2. I tried upgrading the DNN version to 5.2.2 as well, but that didn't work out. Here is the error message that I get (also visible on www.AbundantHealthPotential.com/dnn): Upgrading DotNetNuke Current Assembly Version: 04.09.00 Current Database Version: 05.02.02 Any help would be greatly appreciated. - Thank you!

Here is a follow-up to my previous message. While installing the full 5.2.2 version resulted in an error, installing the 5.2.2 update instead allowed me to at least see my website again, and log in to it. However, all modules are "gone" now, except for the  le. In every module, I get an error message such as: Error: Welcome is currently unavailable.

I'm not sure that there is a solution for you.  You really need that web directory that you erased after the upgrade.

Perhaps your host can find a complete backup from before you did the upgrade?  If so, that will be your best starting point.

All of the "content" of your site is still in the existing database, so please don't delete that.  Make a copy and save it.

The next thing that I would try to do is to get some things working.  If you can make a working installation of 5.2.2 somewhere, you should install all of the modules that you were using on the site.  Then, copy their directories from the Desktop Modules directory to your site.  Next, copy everything from bin.
 
If you can do that, you might get some things working.  Then, you start working off the problems as you encounter them.
