It’s not necessary to update your install one nightly at a time. Some introduce fixes, but cause other problems. I understand your concern with not wanting to mess up any customization you have done, but this is part of the risk you take when working with beta version software.
So far, Jan20 is working for me. If you’re updating to a nightly released after Jan11 from one before that date, run the /wp-admin/upgrade.php page.
No one, answered to my question. QUESTION: Where I can find previous 1.5Beta Nightly versions? Like 16 Jan 2005, 17 and 18 thats the only ones that I need!
ASNWER: They are nowhere that I know of. Why do you need them?
Because, I currently use 15 Jan 2005 – 1.5Beta version and I wanna upgrade to 16 Jan, then 17 Jan till…todays version 21 Jan 2005 1.5Beta! I used to download them from http://wordpress.org/nightly/ but they have deleted them in one night! Need someone to help me
parisgv – you don’t need them. Really. Each and every nightly is a standalone install.
PLEASE understand that when your install breaks, that help here is limited now. Stick with what you have if it works right now.
There is absolutely no reason you need to do that. Just grab the latest nightly and use the changelog to see which files have changed since the version you currently have.
For example, if you’re running the Jan15 nightly and you want to upgrade to the Jan21 nightly (i haven’t added it to the changelog yet since it’s still 5 hours from locking), then just upload the files named under Jan16, 17, 18, 19, and 20. The latest nightly has all the latest versions of every file that’s changed since any earlier one, so you don’t need to waste time updating from 5 versions in a row. Just note all the files that have changed and upload them from the latest nightly.
so, there is no link somewhere to go and download previous versions right?
then just upload the files named under Jan16, 17, 18, 19, and 20
>> the problem is that they have deleted those files for more space at the url i used to go and download them (i mentioned it on my 1st post) and dont know where to find them now
Can you explain precisely why you need these builds ?
READ MY PREVIOUS POSTS! Don’t ask again and again, just read, it is easy!
parisgv2: you don’t need to update daily in sequential order. there is no point in doing that. just take the latest one and update to that one.

Let me try to…
What you DON’T NEED: You DO NOT NEED to upgrade in sequential order. You DO NOT NEED the previous builds.
What you DO NEED: You ONLY NEED to upgrade to the current Nightly Build. You ONLY NEED the current Nightly Build.
