Upgrading local copy issues

[Serious]

Hi folks!
Working on getting a local copy of v1.50 working properly.
Well I guess it is working properly, it seems to be me that is not firing on all cylinders.

Here's the poop:
I've successfully installed ZC on my local PC and it seems to be working properly.
I've downloaded and dropped a copy of my DB from my live site but none of the categories or products are showing up in my new local zen store.

I've tried multiple times and confirmed the correct DB name multiple times.

I'd really like to get this resolved so I can start installing mods and templates.

Thanks in advance for any and all help you folks can provide.

Mismatched DB_PREFIX in your configure.php files.

Nope, just looked and neither have a DB_prefix

CustomAdminName/Includes/Configure.php

// define our database connection
define('DB_TYPE', 'mysql');
define('DB_PREFIX', '');
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'root');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'serious');

Zencart/Includes/Configure.php

// define our database connection
define('DB_TYPE', 'mysql');
define('DB_PREFIX', '');
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'root');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'seriouso');

I took you at your word when you said you confirmed the correct DB name.

But then you said you're using different DB names ....?

CustomAdminName/Includes/Configure.php
define('DB_DATABASE', 'serious');

Zencart/Includes/Configure.php
define('DB_DATABASE', 'seriouso');

[Serious]

They are the same, bad cut-n-paste on my part.
Sorry about that.
