I can login to the server through the MyPHPadmin tool and see that the database now has the expected tables and that the 'transactions' table has ~38,000 records in it - which is about right. I can look in the tables and see my transactions - they look like they are there.

I can still see all the tables with all their data in them. (I haven't edited any values directly in the tables, so I'm really sure I haven't broken anything by manually fiddling around in the db.)

Please start GnuCash from the command line with arguments --log gnc.backend.dbi=debug, then examine the trace file (http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile) for clues. If you want still more verbosity about the SQL queries made, you can add a second --log gnc.backend.sql=debug argument.
