Simple check list to upgrade older version of DNN to DNN 4.41 or DNN 4.5 - Backup Database, Backup All Files (in case for recovery)
- Rename web.config -> oldweb.config
- Extract DNN4.5 installation files over current installation (overright if file exists)
- Delete web.config, Rename release.config -> web.config
- Open web.config and oldweb.config in Text Editor (VS2005 prefer)
- Copy "SiteSqlServer" line under <connectionStrings> from old to new
- Copy "SiteSqlServer" line under <appSettings> from old to new
- Copy "InstallationDate" line under <appSettings> from old to new
- Copy "machineKey" line under <system.web> from old to new
- Browser the web, it will automatically upgrade.

Don't forget your object qualifier if you used one - otherwise the database upgrade will fail and you'll end up with a load of empty tables alongside the existing ones and think you've lost your sites!

Your procedure does not seems to be right. You have to use 4.3.7 installation files overwrite your current files. Change the configuration settings, then load the site. It will do an upgrade instead of new installation.

If you have some custom modules installed, do not forget to copy sections under sections

It looks like you have used a third party module (dnnstuff). You have to include the settings from old web.config to the new web.config. Or you can ask for the module developer for help. Thanks.
