I have seen that wiki page but notice that it doesn't have any implicit instructions for upgrading 3.2.x to 3.3.x. I have tried the upgrade process using the tar package but encounter errors throughout the process which led me to believe there may be a better way to go about it. Please let me know if you can think of anything. Thanks again!

I have looked fairly extensively through the upgrade documentation on the Eprints Wiki page but was not able to find any decent information on the best way to upgrade from our current version to the newest. Any tips or ideas for how to proceed?
