I have a forum running 3.8.4* with a database of 385MB (extracted). I took a backup of the database (via the AdminCP) to an .sql file (385MB). I copied all the vBulletin folders and files to my harddrive. I need to change hosting/server* so I arranged for that. I then use Plesk to create a new MYsql database. I then used the Sql PhpAdmin facility to IMPORT the data from my exported .sql file to the database. Apart from the fact that I had to physically break the .sql file into many pieces* because the total was just too large to accomplish in one pass. So I broke the file up (using a text editor) into about 12 pieces* and then imported each of them. This all finished successfully. I can now look at the database (via Plesk PhpAdmin)... all the tables are there* and they all seem to have the correct number of records. I then FTP over all my backup vBulletin files/folders to the new server. Again* successful. So when I try to visit the site* I see there are no forums displayed... but I do have 30 of them in the database. Also* when I login as Administrator* I do not see anything of value in the "Options" "drop-down" list. And all the "Administrator" items don't exist either. I didn't bother to look at any other items... I just know something is WRONG. What did I do wrong ? What should I do to fix things? Thanks for any and all help. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So I got a suggestion to ask my hosting company to do a restore using SSH. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks for the suggestion. I have asked my hosting company to do as you ask. In the meantime* I have been able to get things going* by doing a little more work myself. First* I verified that all the tables in my extract/backup were actually imported into the database. Hmmmmm.... I was missing 2 tables. So I imported that data. Then I did a "Repair" tables* and a "Re-Index". That fixed things... we can now use the forum. BUT (of course* there is always a "but")... my Admin Control Panel has some "Strange" things. I am attaching a screen shot of a sample of it. Notice that some of the Left Menu bar items have asterisks surrounding them. Yet* I am able to invoke those items. Notice that quite a few of the phrases are absent... they are just not being displayed. Some of these are associated with listboxes* some with radio buttons* some should appear between two "brackets" ("[]"). Also* although none show on this screen shot* some Button faces are blank/empty* so I don't know what they are supposed to do. I think there are some "phrases" missing... yet when I look at the "phrases" table* and I compare the extracted file which I reloaded from* there are 10931 phrases in both. So obviously there are some other things missing. I have reloaded 159 tables. I don't receive any messages about any tables missing. Any thoughts on what is still missing (or incomplete). I really appreciate the help. Attached Images
