The entries are stored in the database just like your blog posts and pages in WordPress. It’s the safest place to store them.
0.7.1.6 was really old but there should not be an issue with upgrading.
Were there any errors shown in the output of the database upgrade?
Are you running WordPress multi-site?
Can you attach screen captures of the Connections : Dashboard admin page, specifically the “System” widget?
Can you attached a screen capture of the Connections : Manage admin page, specifically the upper right corner? What I am look to see is the values shown in all the drop downs and the All | Approved | Pending section.
What can you do to get the entries back? That’s what we’re going to establish. I need details before I can even begin to offer a solution.
