Migrating coppermine gallery to another server

Right, it seems that I stupidly overlooked the fact that those were stored in SQL as the category description. It appears to allow BBcode.
On the existing site it works perfectly. However on the new site it seems to be behaving strangely. I'm not sure whether this is due to the difference in version or what. I can see from the source code that it is not trying to display the image, but instead it is setting the img url from the bbcode in the cat description to the alternative text of another image like so:
--- Code: ---<img src="images/thumbnails.gif" alt="" title="http://www.smileonthetiles.com/smiles/images/cats/plymouth.jpg">
<img src="images/descending.gif" alt="" title="http://www.smileonthetiles.com/smiles/index.php?cat=2">
--- End code ---
On the existing site which works the code is as follows:
--- Code: ---<a href="http://www.smileonthetiles.com/smiles/index.php?cat=2" rel="external"><img src="http://www.smileonthetiles.com/smiles/images/cats/plymouth.jpg" alt=""></a>
<img src="http://www.smileonthetiles.com/smiles/images/cats/plymouth.jpg" alt="">
--- End code ---

I tried using searchnew.php and it gives me this error:
--- Quote ---Fatal error: Unknown: Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in Unknown on line 0
--- End quote ---
Turning on output buffering in php makes no difference (the old server has it turned off and that works fine).

Here is what I suggest you do. Return to your old server and update hat from 1.4.x to the latest 1.5.x release. Once that is working only then can we try to move it to your new server. There are a lot of changes in 1.5.x and we do not want to waste time trying to fix problems here that may have already been fixed in 1.5.x

Yeah I completely understand. I do not want to risk updating my existing site to 1.5 as if it breaks I cannot afford the downtime which will result in restoring a backup. The trouble is that the version I am running is so outdated, things are bound to break during the upgrade process.
I have done an install of 1.5.x on the new server and let it update the SQL database. It seems to be working ok for now, better than the updated 1.4.x one was. Obviously my theme needs re-writing but that is not absolutely essential right now.
ohara:
Right I'm still having a few problems with 1.5:
searchnew.php does not work (there is some heavy activity by php5 on the server for a bit, then I just get a white page)
javascript doesn't seem to work
