I have moved a blog and now even though all the php files are in the database, the posts are not showing up in the wp blog. I have re-installed wp, and re-installed each .php file to the data base. I originally had trouble with the comments file as it was 24 megs, but that is now working. Now the posts are not working.
What am I missing?
Everything else seems to be there (comments, ads, links), but it gives me this:
"Sorry, no posts matched your criteria."
I've also tried other themes, with the same result.

There are no PHP files in the database. There are tables in the database which store your posts, comments, setting, etc. Did you backup your database before the move?

No, the owner did not. I pulled the table data from the old database. I've looked at all the files download from the old server. They all appear correct and in fact work once I've uploaded them to the new database. It's only the post file that does not work.
The wp_posts table would house your posts.
Might update your permalink structure via Administration > Settings > Permalinks.
Yes, the posts are in the wp_posts file. Updating the permalinks did not help.
Try disabling all plugins and change to the WordPress Default theme.
I already tried that. I did have the plugins on when I installed everything. I turned them off and tried the default with no success. Should I dump and add the wp_posts file again?
Guess you could try that but can't imagine that will work.
You might want to provide a link to see the problem.
Hmm, no Categories, no Archives. Might want to start over and review Moving WordPress.
