I must apologize for assuming a program would work properly. Any new posts over the past couple of days are most likely gone. I had found the "new" installation was missing several thousand files so yesterday I re-copied all 18,000+ files, again, and told the ftp program to skip any file that was already on the new system. Filezilla, in it's infinite wisdom, went ahead and REPLACED all files so basically the forum reverted to it's state at the time I shut down the old forum.
Just wanted to give a heads-up since this has already affected a couple of folks.
The bright side? This morning there were no additional errors in the error.log complaining about a file not existing so hopefully things are back to normal.
