AlmaLinux 8 - Plesk Panel

Please, read the message that you've got from the first upgrade, it includes step-by-step instructions of what to do.
Let me quote it again:

Upgrading directly from MySQL 10.4 to MariaDB 10.5 may not

be safe in all cases. A manual dump and restore using mysqldump is

recommended. It is important to review the MariaDB manual's Upgrading

section for version-specific incompatibilities.

A manual upgrade is required.

- Ensure that you have a complete, working backup of your data and my.cnf

files

- Shut down the MySQL server cleanly

- Remove the existing MySQL packages. Usually this command will

list the packages you should remove:

rpm -qa | grep -i '^mysql-'

You may choose to use 'rpm --nodeps -ev <package-name>' to remove

the package which contains the mysqlclient shared library. The

library will be reinstalled by the MariaDB-shared package.

- Install the new MariaDB packages supplied by MariaDB Foundation

- Ensure that the MariaDB server is started

- Run the 'mysql_upgrade' program

This is a brief description of the upgrade process. Important details

can be found in the MariaDB manual, in the Upgrading section.

Thanks, but I'm afraid of losing something, I've done it before and lost access to the dashboard, I was only able to restore after a backup, not if I'll be able to do it again.

I've tried a few commands and I always get these results:

[root@ns340238 ~]# yum install MariaDB-server galera-4 MariaDB-client MariaDB-sh ared MariaDB-backup MariaDB-common
