seems like your backup and code version do not match. You might want to try to upgrade and see if that works, i.e. run the url

q=civicrm/upgrade&reset=1

Looking at a backup copy of the database, I saw that civicrm_domain.version was "3.0.2" in the backup but that the active database had civicrm_domain.version = "3.1.alpha1.upgrade".  So I changed civicrm_domain.version in the active database to "3.0.2", along with trying some other things such as deleting Config.IDS.ini, setting config_backend = NULL, and truncating civicrm_cache and civicrm_menu.  I also reloaded the 3.0.2 code.

As a result, the previous errors disappear and many parts of CiviCRM now seem to be working properly.  However, when I try to access Contributions, the following "unrecoverable" error appears:

QuickForm Error: nonexistent html element
Error Details:

    [callback] => Array
        (
           

• => CRM_Core_Error
[1] => handle
        )

    [message] => QuickForm Error: nonexistent html element
    [mode] => 16
    [debug_info] => Element 'custom_7_from' does not exist in HTML_QuickForm::addRule()

    [to_string] => [html_quickform_error: message="nonexistent html element" code=-3 mode=callback callback=CRM_Core_Error::handle prefix="QuickForm Error: " info="Element 'custom_7_from' does not exist in HTML_QuickForm::addRule()"]
)

I also ran .../civicrm/upgrade?reset=1 again but it just reports "Your database has already been upgraded to CiviCRM 3.0.2". 
But when I return to CiviCRM Home it still says "Powered by CiviCRM 3.1.3" at the bottom.

I am wondering if I should just start over from scratch, but with some 5000 entries already in the database I would prefer not to do so.


After making numerous attempts to solve this problem, I made a clean install of 3.0.2, and used phpMyAdmin to import data from a .sql backup file (which had been exported from the last working 3.0.2 install, so that is why this is the version I chose to install).  After going through other precautionary measures, most CiviCRM functions seemed to be working, but attempting to access Contributions still gave me the QuickForm Error which referenced 'custom_7_from' (which did not appear to be a valid field from anywhere in the database). 
Eventually I tried upgrading to 3.1.4, which was successful on the first attempt (to my surprise)!
Seeing that contributions (and other functions) now work properly, I tried to move on to the task I was working on when CiviCRM was last functioning properly, which was Credit Card donations.  This seemed to work properly, except that I received a message stating that my smtp needed to be configured (which I had done for the old install).  After re-entering the smtp information, the following messages appeared:

I am hoping that the above messages are unrelated to my previous database problems.
