Please check our restore wiki /wiki/index.php/Restore_Backup#Restore_Backup_.E2.80.93_Manually , it should help!

if you could put as much info about the MySQL databases, if i need it to be the same name as previous server, if the folder needs to be same name as original server etc etc that would be great as i dont know much about this sort of thing but really need to get it done. thanks

The restore script is independent from the original site, so all paths, url and mysql detais can be changed and they be valid only on the new location.

 

Retry and restore again, and post here   a screenshot if you still have issues! Ovidiu
