Hi,
I'm new to this and have a test environment that I would like to upgrade to ver. 3.5.9 (same as our prod environment).
I have searched online to see if it is possible to do an inplace-upgrade, but haven't found anything.
How should this be done?
* Inplace-upgrade
upgrade binaries, service
* new install
install new version side-by-side, backup old and restore to new, new service, uninstall old version...
What is the recommended approach?
One more detail:
I have a evaluation version installed (3.5.6) and I want to change this to a test version (3.5.9).
I have generated a new license key for this.
In the first link you provided it refers to download the exe version of the Windows installer
Upgrading Confluence on Windows
- Download theConfluence 'Windows Installer'(.exe) file (for the new version of Confluence) from theConfluence Download Center.
This link gives me only the evaluation exe file...
Can I use this file and change the license key afterwards?

Well, that exe-file does not seem to recognize any existing installs. It will only create a new install.
Any tips ?

Sorry, that first link would have probably taken you to the latest version of Confluence (4.1) rather than version 3.5.9. Version 3.5.9 is available from the download archive http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/download-archives and I'm guessing you'll need the 3.5.9 Standlaone (ZIP archive) which is available at http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/downloads/binary/confluence-3.5.9-std.zip , but if you're running clustered and/or EAR/WAR then download the relevant clustered/EAR/WAR version instead.
You can still upgrade in place, but as 3.5.9 doesn't come with an automated installer you'll need to follow the instructions at http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Upgrading+Confluence+Manually, or if you're upgrading an EAR/WAR version follow the instructions at http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Upgrading+Confluence+EAR-WAR+Distribution
Hope that helps,
Andrew.
