Because I had justed started out with owncloud (few files) and I was getting nowhere with an upgrade (short attention span) I decided to put together an all new owncloud 7.0.4 by doing the following:
1. Downloaded owncloud_7.0.4-3_all.deb to my desktop
2. From the Hub created a new LAMP Stack instance (all this on the EC2).
4. From WebMin Package Manager I used the 'Install a New Package from uploaded file' option selecting the file I downloaded in step 1
5. It fails because of dependencies
6. From the Web Shell I executed 'apt-get -f install'
7. When prompted 'Keep the local version currently installed'.
8. This will not only address the dependencies but also install owncloud.
9. Go back to WebMin under the Apache Server and change the port 80 and 443 Virtual Servers to point to 'var/www/owncloud'.
10. Stop then Start the Apache Server (from Webmin - top right).
11. The first time you start owncloud use the further instructions at the web site in Step 3 to get owncloud to use MySQL instead of the default SQLite.
I have limited Linux CLI knowledge so this minimized the amount I had to do (and it worked).
ownCloud 7 install instead of an upgrade

2. From the Hub created a new LAMP Stack instance (all this on the EC2).
3. From 'https://www.howtoforge.com/owncloud-7-installation-and-configuration-on-... I used the instructions on how to setup the owncloud MySQL database and user.
