It's probably a good idea to go through intermediate version for the upgrade. For example, 1.5 -> 1.7 -> 1.9 -> 1.11 -> 1.13. You may be able to make bigger jumps, but going two versions up should always be safe.
You should never need to do this -- upgrading directly from any previous MediaWiki version to the latest is the recommended process and should always work unless something's broken.
I just did a quick test upgrading a fresh 1.5 branch installation to 1.14 branch, and the update went flawlessly.

The last attempted database query was: "SHOW COLUMNS FROM `archive` LIKE 'ar_namespace'" from within function "". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'mywiki.archive' doesn't exist (localhost)".
When I then browse to the wiki I get the following error:
from within function "Job::pop". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'mywiki.job' doesn't exist (localhost)".
These seem to indicate something's wrong with your wiki database -- some of your tables are missing. The 'archive' table was already there in our 1.1 release, and should certainly be present in any working 1.5 installation.
The 'job' table was added in 1.6, but the updater hasn't reached the stage of adding it yet at the time it's checking the archive table's indexes and fails.
