chefry, for upgrade do not use old versions like 4.01 and 4.2. use the most recent
stable version from any developer.

To Upgrade from older newbb versions 1.x 2.x 3.0.x
==========================
1- close your website. (highly recommended) be sure you be logged in.
2- get a backup from your old newbb database.(all XOOPSPREFIX_bb_* tables)
3- get a backup from your old newbb/images directory to save your custom old images. Also get a backup from any changes you done in files.
4- IF EXIST get a backup from your old newbb/include/plugin.php
5- delete your old newbb folder located in modules (or rename it to newbb_old)
6- IF EXIST delete old newbb folder (templates) in htdocs/themes/default/modules/newbb AND htdocs/themes/YOUR_THEME/modules/newbb (or rename it to newbb_old)
7- upload the newbb to htdocs/modules/newbb (upload the compressed file and decompressed via Cpanel is the best way to insure all files are correctly uploaded)
8- go to your admin -> system -> modules -> newbb -> upgrade (important: wait until you see the report page)
9- go to system -> maintenance -> clear all caches
10- change the default settings to your desired in the module preferences and newbb/include/plugin.php and IF EXIST based on your old back-upped plugin.php. Set the permissions in newbb -> admin -> permission for all groups one by one. pay attention that webmasters group has all accesses regardless of permissions. using a non webmaster test account is recommended to test the permissions for each group.
11 - dont forget to open your website again.
so when you are insure that you have 3.08 up and running well, you can delete newbb folder of 3.08 and upload/copy newbb folder from most stable version.
then you just go to admin -> system -> modules -> newbb -> update and click on update button.
