Looks like the database for your new GL site is already populated. Drop & recreate the database and try the migration again.

There's also an FAQ entry for this topic: Migrating a Geeklog site. The install script's migrate option[*4] may also come in handy.

OK, here's where I am now.
1. I deleted the DB I had created before.
2. I uploaded all the files to a folder on the new server.
3. While they were uploading, I created a new DB.
4. Once all the files were loaded, I navigated in FireFox to admin/install/index.php and selected "migrate".
5. I entered the information about the new DB I created, and specified the location of GL_DB_backup_111909.sql on my local PC.
6. When informed that the backup file already exists, I elected to replace it.
7. I see this screen, which I think is good:
http://www.scs-matters.com/images/GLmigrate_04.jpg[*5]
But then it forwards me to a white page that just says "Unfortunately, an error has occurred rendering this page. Please try again later."
What do I do now?

From these postings and from the email you sent me, one of the biggest problems you've had were not using the same identical files from when you migrated over. You need to verify that you have the same copy from your old hosting company.
