Looks like you are running into a known problem mentioned here:https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAKB/Incompatible+Greenhopper+version+during+project+import+in+JIRA

Try restarting JIRA and hopefully that would fix it.

You will probably need to:

1. uninstall Greenhopper in your new Jira instance
2. reinstall Greenhopper version 6.1.3.1
3. Import your project
4. Upgrade Greenhopper to the latest version.

You might also search the backup file for all reverses to 6.1.3.1 and replace them with 6.2, this might or might not work and should be done at your own risk.
