Probably with the IMPEX importer utility.

Whats wrong exactly ? everything looks fine to me, did you preform a full backup from the shell and restore the original files? If so nothing could be wrong really unless your host has a bad php/mysql config




1. why not just use clean files?

2. the only other efficent but very long way is impex, unless you can write a customer importer.
