It’s empty… please help.

I think you installed a new coppermine and set a certain db prefix... like cpg135_
then you restored your old db... but it has another prefix like cpg132_

now you need to edit config.inc.php and enter the prefix gf the old db... in this example cpg132_

have you done that??

yes sir the prefix matches it's cpg132_

also i don't know if any mods that i did to my old coppermine would matter like Integration with phpbb.

then recheck if you've backed up your mysql db including data and not only the structure

with a tool like phpmyadmin you can explore your mysql db (and much more)

or check your backup.sql file (open it in a text editor)
