For starters - I hope you backed it up and restored it (and not copied it).
Secondly, you should ensure your restore is Dialect 1 and not Dialect 3
(until you have checked what impact that will have).
Otherwise - it all depends a little on what you use to connect to the
database (components?), language, environment etc tell us more.
