Are your folders CHMOD writable? I just did a back up and my folders weren’t visible in my blog. I could see them via FTP on my public web space but I couldn’t access them through wordpress admin interface.
Check CHMOD on your wp folders.

Thanks for the comment, KatGirl
I checked the permissions of the folders
cp
wp-admin
wp-content
wp-includes
and they were all set so that I could read, write and execute and the public could read and execute so I think all is well on that front.
This is unbelievably aggravating.
Am I supposed to do something after I upload the entries using MySQL and phpAdmin? Is there a step I’m missing?

Any and all pointers would be appreciated, including to links to other sites that explain how to do this.

I found this thread helpful:

I’d still appreciate an explanation as to why it worked though.
My wp-config.php file had database information that I had not added to it so what I had to do was update the database with the information from my new mySQL database for the new blog and somehow that resulted in the old entries reappearing (?). I don’t get it!
It makes no sense to me.
