You can still restore from the tar balls. To properly move your UBB with the above instructions, you need a full installation zip of the version that you are currently running.

The basic method to restore is:
- Backup old
- Install new instance of UBB on new server
- restore files except vars_config.cgi
- Run rebuilds

Worst case, you could always fill out a support ticket and get assistance from Infopop Support.
