    Because it's phpBB, back up your forums. I wrote a tutorial here (NOTE: I'm el canadiano on other forums).

    1.) Download the upgrade script from your version.

    http://www.phpbb.com/downloads/olympus.php?update=1&sid=ea867aa44e240accdb0715a641349fd7

    2.) Using FTP, upload everything in the upload section (if there exists a folder)

    3.) Run the upgrade script (which should be in the install folder).

    4.) Redo all your file edits.

    It shouldn't be hard.

    What isn't working? Just upload the update files and visit yourboard.com/install/, and run the wizard.

    i tried this already and installed the files but it did not update.
    i even had two other people try it that build websites and they couldnt get it either.
    maybe i can let you try and see if you can get it?
