I'm running drupal 5.7 with the following optional modules enabled:

calendar-5.x-1.7 cck-5.x-1.6-1. date-5.x-1.8 forms-5.x-1.x-dev nodeaccess-5.x-1.x-dev private_upload-5.x-1.0-beta6 quotes-5.x-1.1 sitecss-5.x-0.2 survey-5.x-1.x-dev views-5.x-1.6 weather-5.x-6.0

I did a backup of my site database and restored it to another site (to test the backup/restore process). When I went to my frontpage, I got "Page not found". To make a long story short, it looks like the views module didn't get re-enabled.

I could get to the /admin page and under the Site Building heading, it didn't show views. When I went to /admin/build/modules and ran update.php, everything started to work again. Does this make sense? Should it be necessary to run update.php after a database restore?

I think something is missing in your report. If the views module was not shown in admin/build/modules I suspect the files were not copied properly. It is not necessary to run update.php after a database restore unless you have upgraded the module files.
