Eh?  You take a backup and you expect it to lose project data?  What's the point of a backup if it loses data?

> My doubt is hw come plugins got imported in my new instance??
Plugins are possibly different though, I don't know if Jira 4.3 and above store them in the database, but Jira 4.2 backups only contained the configuration data for them, not the physical .jar files, so I understand any confusion there.  Unless you've installed a new Jira and pointed it at the existing "jira home", in which case, it'll see all the same plugins

>Another struggle that i have is NONE of the data got moved?
Without knowing your backup method, and explanation of what you mean by "data" and what you did, we can't even guess what this means.

>Where can i find data in mysql 
In the database!  (Ok, that's a facetious answer - the question is still "what you do mean by data?")

Could you explain
# What backup method you used
# What you expected
# What you got
