Total spitball, but are you saying that custom blocks got disabled? That sounds like it could be related to the new ability to disable blocks rather than removing them.
That's strange. Would you mind providing more details about how the home page was set up? If this is a bug with 1.22.0 it'd be great to try to fix it, but it'd be crucial to be able to reproduce the problem.
The blocks in the layout/template were de-activated. They are not 'custom' but I use 'layout-node' module for the front page. All other pages are fine.
I don't think the update intended to disable those. It's probably a bug or a regression. Would you be willing to open an issue in the Backdrop queue with detailed information on how to reproduce?
Using core I was not able to recreate the issue. There may be some bug with Layout Node module.
I installed a fresh 1.21.4 site, added a custom block to the home layout. Then upgraded to 1.22.0. My custom block was still visible. So seems to work fine with core. I suggest adding an issue to the Layout Node module project.
Thanks! The site was on PHP 7.0. With assistance from my hosting provider, I updated to PHP 7.4 and now I have access to the site again. No database re-import required.
The best you can do is test and report. If you find a contrib that doesn't work in php 8.3, create an issue in its queue so it gets fixed.
In my experience, I've found that 7.4 is safest...

Hi argiepiano,
Some contrib will not work in php 7.2 or lower, and some will not on PHP 8.1 or higher.
Is there a way to find out which is the optimal PHP version for a...

This sounds like a combination of a buggy module and the "wrong" version of PHP. The fact that you are being redirected to the maintenance page may be an indication that your site was put on...

Any errors in the log? Have you tried clearing caches?
Try downgrading. In the meantime, what are you using for your home page? A view? the Home layout? A node?
Thank you for the quick response
The problem was, that upgrade disabled the content of the blocks on the front page. Now enabled and all is fine.
But why???????
I use layout-node for overriding some backdrop problems. Wanted a custom front page.

Or are you saying nodes were unpublished?

No error.log
There should be at least a warning about this in the update instructions/notes.

Herb, I was able to reproduce the problem and also found the causes for it. Updates on the queues:
