Probably a caching issue: you probably viewed the main page just after
you installed the new wiki, and the rendered version got cached; then,
when you imported the other version directly into the database, the
software didn't know to clear this cache. Consequently, the old
version was loaded from the cache until you forced it to be purged
[the simplest way of doing this, by the way, is to use the parameter
"action=purge" in the URL].
