Upgrade Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04: Error ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Hi,
for those who want to upgrade Ubuntu 18.04 to Ubuntu 20.04 and of course also update HestiaCP to 1.8 version below is the procedure I used:

  1. apt update && apt upgrade && apt autoremove && reboot
  2. edit /usr/local/hestia/data/users/USERNAME/web.conf and renable proxy and proxy_ext (see previous message)
  3. run v-rebuild-all USERNAME yes for all username
  4. extract mysql root password from /usr/local/hestia/conf/mysql.conf
  5. change password for sql user “pma” will be requested during the upgrade procedure
  6. upgrade Ubuntu (do-release-upgrade) and reboot
  7. add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php && apt install ppa-purge && ppa-purge ppa:ondrej/php (accept any suggestions)
  8. Edit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hestia.list and change “bionic” to “focal”
  9. apt update && apt upgrade
  10. apt install hestia-php
  11. v-add-sys-dependencies
  12. run v-rebuild-all USERNAME yes for all username
  13. apt install php-zip php-intl
