About 99.9% of the time its not the vbulletin update itself. Its probably a modification that will not work with the new version of VB.

If you have an older modification on your site, like a shoutbox. And you try to update the forum software. Sometimes that mod will crash your site. I had this happen with my forum a couple of times. One time it turned out that the shoutbox I was using would not work with the new version of VB. So I had to remove the shoutbox, update VB, then update the shoutbox.

Before you update the forum software, you have to update all of the modifications you have installed. If you dont, and one crashes your site, you have to roll back to the previous version of VB. That means restoring the database to before the updates, and reuploading all the previous VB version files - it gets rather time consuming.
