Mysql not receiving the data

Good day list, I was running a Mysql/PHP DB/Webpage that was hosted on Redhat 8.0 It was a simple DB - only 1 table, and the php page connected and fed data to it. Last weekend I rebuilt the server to Fedora Core 2 - using the default PHP/Mysql/apache installs. I setup the databases, and imported the old data (taken from a MySQL dump) into the new DB, and setup Apache, so that I could view the pages that displayed the data, and also the page that I used to add the data. Online I could see everything, and the pages gave the appearance of working, however when I went into the DB using PHPMYADMIN to check the status of the new data entered, all I found was blank rows ( for the new data since the rebuild, all the old data was there) There were the correct number of new rows for the amount of records that I had entered, which tells me (unless I am nistaken) that the PHP is talking to the DB, and is atleast sending a insert command, but the rest of the data is not getting in. - I hope that I have made sense, Please note that the php/html pages used to input the data used to work on the old server and had been running for several years flawlessly. As I said I have a default conf for apache, obviously changing the bits that needed to be changed (servername, etc) and did not change anything on the PHP & MySQL confs. Any ideas?
