Mysql and old data
So this one is new to me, and I'm hoping someone here can show me the light. I'm sure it might possibly be user-error, but for the life of me, I CANNOT figure out what the problem is. I have done literally hundreds of migrations like this before and never had a problem until now:

Background: Last night used cPanel's pkgacct functionality to create a cpmove file for a 10GB account. Moved package to new server and restored and everything was working beautifully. Had client test it and he immediately pointed out that his site was missing many forums created over the last several months, and had some forums that were deleted many months ago. On investigation, we found many other similar quirks (Plugin settings had reverted to those from months prior, for instance).

So I fired up mysql on the command line and started digging in the database, and....the data looks FINE there. Those missing forums exist, and the ones that shouldn't be there...aren't. 

I did a manual backup of the forum database from the old server, copied and installed on the new server, and same thing...


For reference, this is a large vBulletin forum that we're having these quirks with. I have worked on this for literally 5 hours straight and I just can't think about it anymore. Please tell me that there is some sort of cache that I need to clear or something. I have never had a problem like this and google is not yielding any results for me.

Thanks in advance.
