What are the proper stsadm commands in sequence to force an upgrade to a SharePoint solution. I have tried
C:>"C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\web server
extensions\12\BIN\stsadm.exe" -o
deploysolution -name "MySolution.wsp"
-immediate -allcontenturls -allowGacDeployment -allowCasPolicies -force
followed by
C:>"C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\web server
extensions\12\BIN\stsadm.exe" -o
execadmsvcjobs
It seems to deploy and shows the solution as having a deployment time of when I push these commands but my files don't appear to get updated and new files don't appear.
Am I missing something? Do I need to do an IISReset /noforce after processing these commands.
Thanks,
Josh Lewis

The proper way is to use the -o upgradesolution command. In most cases there is no need to retract and delete the solution and reinstall it. Be sure and follow it up with an -o execadmsvcjobs as usual.
