I want to upgrade. tutor to latest version numeg(v14) from juniper(v10).  
As regisb. suggested first I need to upgrade to lialc(v12).

But i am not sure which upgradation method i need use.

```auto
   pip install --upgrade "tutor[full]==12.0.0"
   tutor local quickstart
   and 
   pip install --upgrade "tutor[full]==14.0.0"
   tutor local quickstart

```

Or

```auto
   pip install --upgrade "tutor[full]==12.0.0"
   tutor local upgrade --from juniper
   tutor local quickstart
   and 
   pip install --upgrade "tutor[full]==14.0.0"
   tutor local upgrade --from lilac
   tutor local quickstart

```

Hi @chethan4046,

Upgrading from previous versions isn’t so simple. You have to upgrade incrementally. Also, I seem to recall seeing a note that you have to upgrade using the installation method you used the first time (curl or pip). Since you have Juniper, you most likely used `curl`.

I wrote a set of instructions for my team starting at version 12 that will provide a starting point.

- You’ll have to use the same process to go from version 10 to 11 to 12.
- You will want to read the [archived Tutor discuss site](https://discuss.overhang.io/) if you run into problems upgrading from version 10 to 11. Any problem you encounter will probably be documented.
- I recommend making incremental backups in case the upgrade fails (prevents you from having to start back at version 10).

See upgrade instructions here: [https://docs.tutor.overhang.io/install.html#upgrading](https://docs.tutor.overhang.io/install.html#upgrading)

1. Get the Tutor version and make a backup. We’ll start with version 12.

2. Download and upgrade Tutor version 13 (Maple)

3. Download and upgrade to Tutor version 14 (Nutmeg)

4. Enable the `custom-settings.yml` plugin and fix any problems

5. (optional) Clean up all build caches and old images.

6. Lastly, rebuild the images for the latest version of Tutor to include the XBlocks

7. Save the current instance if everything works
