Unfortunately, I updated to debian 10 and did not look at compatibility. Now Vesta won't open with error 502.
Found that myVesta supports debian 10.
Tell me how to safely switch to using myVesta so that all settings and configs are saved?

Thank you. Unfortunately, the Vesta panel no longer works, error 502. What should I do now?
And main part - this is PROD server, I can not stop apache/nginx/etc.

you don't need panel interface to run 'v-backup-user' command from SSH, right?

Yes, it's true. But what happens next? I can't stop the web and database services or delete the user folder with all site files. Sorry for such stupid questions, I'm afraid of losing my clients.
Can you please tell me how it is MOST SAFE for a working business to migrate to your panel? I do not need the full functionality of the new panel, it is enough that it just works like Vesta.

I found https://github.com/myvestacp/vesta/blob ... myvesta.sh
Will my webserver continue to work during execution of this script? Is it enough to update through this way?

You can try that way, but I'm not sure if it still works.
Probably not.

In the tutorial it's clearly said that you need two servers.
Or, if you have only one, download backups to your computer and completely install fresh Debian 11 on existing server - and then move back backups from computer to server, and import them.

Thank you, but I still can not interrupt site work. So I changed reps to bionic and reinstalled vesta from the official repository. Now it works.
