[wp-hackers] Lost categories upgrading to 2.5.1

[Elliotte Harold]

This is probably relevant:

mysql> show tables;
+----------------------------+
| Tables_in_elharo_wordpress |
+----------------------------+
| wp_bad_behavior            |
| wp_categories              |
| wp_comments                |
| wp_link2cat                |
| wp_links                   |
| wp_options                 |
| wp_post2cat                |
| wp_postmeta                |
| wp_posts                   |
| wp_usermeta                |
| wp_users                   |
+----------------------------+

Looking in the forums it seems that this has happened to others, and 
there's been some trouble tracking the cause down.

At this point I strongly suspect that some necessary tables were not 
created, and consequently a lot of commands failed. I'm going to see if 
I can fix this manually before In attempt to restore form the backup and 
reupgrade or revert.
