HI

Download the patch files
go to admin ->Upgrade Wizard and upgrade.

The best way to upgrade your system is using the silentUpgrade tool.

Can silentUpgrade run on a hosted server with no prompt access?

You need to execute silentUpgrade.php file with necessary parameters,from the shell.

I ran silentUpgrade via cron and I am now not sure if it worked or not.
The red banner stating I should upgrade is now gone but when I click the 'About' at the top of my installation it still shows 5.2.0e not the 5.2.0f version

I setup a cron with the following & set to execute at a specific minute on the hour, about 3 minutes ahead of time....then I waited.
cd /home/crager/public_html/crm; php -f /home/crager/public_html/crm/silentUpgrade.php /home/crager/public_html/crm/SugarCE-Patch-5.2.0f.zip /home/crager/public_html/crm admin

should last parameter, the admin access at end be a server admin, mysql admin or sugarCRM admin?
