I'm running Nagios XI on an offline Centos 7.6 server
I tried upgrading from 5.5.11 to 5.6.2 by downloading the latest RPM from https://repo.nagios.com/?repo=offline
I run the upgrade script which completes successfully and when I do:
rpm -qa | grep Nagios
All the Nagios RPM's are on version 5.6.2
However, when I log into Nagios XI web interface, it still displays "Nagios XI 5.5.11" in the bottom left of the browser.
I've tried rebooting the server, but get the same result.

I found the problem.

As I'd rebooted the server, the original nagiosxi RPM no longer existed in /tmp.
To get around this, I had to complete the install with:
