Not knowing what to do, I changed the PHP version on the hosting from 7.1 to 8.1 and the webpage started to work again! I reactiveated all themes and plugins and I only needed to “Save” permalinks and everything is ok now.

@west7 thank you for your help!

I tried to use the /wp-admin/upgrade.php but nothing changes ??

I have created a new WordPress instance and used UpdraftPlus backup files to restore the website and here is what I have found:
– restoring everything apart from db files works ok
– while restoring the db, I get a notification that the backup was created with PHP 7.1. The earliest version of PHP that I have on my hosting company is 7.2.
When I try to restore it, the website crashes. So I guess there must have been some changes in the DB structure / interface that broke the website. Do you know if there is any way of restoring the content of the website from the DB itself?

I will contact the support as well.

Hi @west7,

Thank you for quick reply.

When I cleared cache, I received on a /wp-admin/ page info that there was a critical error and additional instructions were sent to mail. However, I have not received this email. I checked SPAM folder and there is no email.

So now I do not even have the login page for admin panel ??

The hosting company is az.pl from Poland.
