I dont see this particular predicament and would like to ask for help. I diligently followed the Coincashew update guide and got both of my relays updated without much of a hitch. I move to update BP- and get to where I have copied into the bin but when I check to ensure the proper version- it comes back 1.27. (mainnet-config looks correct) Im getting the idea something is not where its supposed to be and feel pretty close to boogering up something worse. ---

Here is a quick how-to note for CoinCashew fellas to upgrade to 1.29.0. This 1.29.0 release is an important update to the node that provides the functionality that is needed following the Alonzo hard fork. All users, including stake pool operators, must upgrade to this version (or a later version) of the node. IMPORTANT: As usual, don’t forget to backup your nodes before starting these updates. STEP 1 - Clone the latest source and… ---

I actually did. I tried both tutorials and get the same result on my BP, that may be what is causing a problem? I ran this one start to finish exactly and still get the 1.27 return at the same point. Is there something else that may need to be deleted? ---

Perhaps the bash file? Or perhaps u copied the binari files in another place? ---

I think this should be nano .bashrc or nano $HOME/.bashrc and check the export lines, compare with another node U can also compare the cardano-node and cardano-cli from this folder cd /usr/local/bin ls -l ---

Type `which cardano-node` and see if that path corresponds to the one where you copied 1.29.0 binaries. ---

`which` tells you where the CLI is picking up the executable from… You have 2 solutions, either copy the binary to the location `which` is telling you the binary is at (~/.local/bin) or fix the PATH env variable… ooor remove the binary from `~/.local/bin/`… and it’ll pick the one from /usr/local/bin …your PATH is configured to look for binaries in `~/.local/bin` first ---

How would one go about fixing the PATH env variable so it looks in the usr? I have removed the file from the .local/bin ---

In case you are a bit lost and are afraid to mess up something the safest solution is to copy the 1.29.0 binary to the location where 1.27.0 is located. For the `sudo cp $...` commands replace `/usr/local/bin/` with `/home/cardano/.local/bin/` ---

Thank you for the prompt help. Absolute beginner here and fear of messing something else up is real! Picture a monkey poking a computer with a stick and a rubber spoon. I appreciate it
