    Thanks Michael. I forgot to mention that I did unpack the .tar file with the 7-zip utility after reading about it here. That is what I uploaded to the elefante installation. That upload had NO effect on the site. One thing I noticed was that even after unpacking with 7-zip there was still one very large file in there that remained a tar file. The database info did make it into mysql but I have no way to tell if it is correct or not.

    I tried uploading the contents of the unpacked file to an empty (no wp install) and I got just a list of all the files.

    For right now I have reset the dns to my old server until I (or someone else) figure this out.

    I tried it and it still times out. I did notice that if I reload the page and try it again I get more posts uploaded. I did this like 4 times just now (have nothing to lose at this point) and it finished uploading all 60 some posts and comments and then said “Have Fun” I was pretty excited at this until I went to the blog and only 1 post is on each page for a total of 5. Bummer!

    Thanks for all of your suggestions.

    I deleted the whole mess and reinstalled again. Now it works.
