Hi Anupriya,

Note: I'm unfamiliar with how things worked pre:1.5.2

Your data exists in 2 silos: assetstore + Database. So you
don't necessarily need to get the application layer up (DSpace), just to get
the data you have up to date so that it works in the latest release of
DSpace.
Before trying this, be sure to make a backup of your folder directory, and
database.

I would look at the upgrade notes.
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC/Upgrading+a+DSpace+Installation#UpgradingaDSpaceInstallation-UpgradingFrom1.0.1to1.1

The steps that are needed are to run database-schema upgrade scripts, they
can be run command line from psql.
Additionally there are some java upgrade steps to run, it might be possible
to take the 6 or so .java files out of the DSpace source and run it directly
as java classes. Or perhaps to have the latest version of DSpace installed
on the machine, and change the config setting to connect to your
old-version-database just to run the java upgrade step on it.

Good luck, sorry I can't be of more help.
