Also, how did you transfer your databases? The correct way is a table
dump and import, you can't usually just transfer the binary files,
particularly between different versions of mysql.
You can normally get away with the binary method if going lower to
higher versions, and running mysql_upgrade afterwards. Even if moving
away from Larry... eg Percona MySQL or MariaDB.
But in essence you're right, and a full mysqldump as a backup is always
a good idea!
