nightmere upgrading - Products not showing up in their categories

Also, how many tables are in your database? How many of them are named "admin" but with different prefixes? like "zen_admin", "admin", "v155_admin", etc? If you have more than one set of tables, chances are that your old site had a different DB_PREFIX set in your configure.php files, and your new site is using a different DB_PREFIX, so is pointing to the wrong set of data.

What lat9 said above is how to avoid such a situation.

If you do have 2 sets of tables, look at the old site's configure.php file to see the DB_PREFIX and set your new site's configure.php files (both of them) to use the same DB_PREFIX as the old site. Then you'll need to re-upload the v158 zc_install directory and run zc_install to upgrade your data.
And then of course delete zc_install when done. And use phpMyAdmin to delete the "wrong" set of database tables that you had created by doing the "fresh" install of 158 with the wrong prefix.

thank you for the quick replys btw. there in no db prefix for the database, what i will do is give you a clearer look at what may be going on. there may be a missing table in sql or a change in something. im going to post specs and more info as this may help other people as well with a smother upgrade process.
