Do you still have access to the old server? You could run db_dump on that server to dump the data, then copy it over to the new server.

I can't login and my comments don't work on http://widepipe.org/gear/.

My host moved my files to new server a few days ago. All the files should be in the same relative place.

I checked the permissions on my DB directory and the files within. The directory is 777, all the files are 666.

I followed the db_upgrade directions and got the following error:

CODE

db_upgrade: author.db: DB->upgrade only supported on native byte-order systems
db_upgrade: DB->upgrade: author.db: Invalid argument

So then I ran the db_dump utility on the first file and this error came up:

CODE

db_upgrade: author.db: DB->upgrade only supported on native byte-order systems
db_upgrade: DB->upgrade: author.db: Invalid argument

So I ran db_dump185 and I got this error:

CODE

db_dump185: author.db: Invalid argument

Any ideas?

Thanks Ben. That did the trick.
