Can I update the site without signing in?

Can you check if you installed PHP8? webtrees 1.7 only works with PHP 5.3–7.0

I suggest
- downgrade your PHP version
- login to webtrees and export GEDCOM files for your trees
- produce a backup of your webtrees installation and your database
- read all the webtrees upgrade information (1.7->2.0 and 2.0->2.1): webtrees.net/upgrade/
- manually upgrade to the latest version of webtrees or install a fresh version
- upgrade your PHP version to 8.x
