Hi, this is a big jump. Please go through all the upgrade notes, starting from https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA044/JIRA+4.4.5+Upgrade+Notes and follow it step by step. In particular, go through the upgrade notes for all the versions in between.

There have been database and other changes.
