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.

Thank you very much. I will follow your advice.
Locked out of site after updating modules
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...

@lee999 - Ubercart is a well supported e-commerce solution for Backdrop. I'm not sure what you mean by multi-vendor, what it needs, or whether it has specific support in Ubercart.
I'm sure someone more expert in ubercart will be able to help but in the mean time what sort of features or user stories are necessary to support multi vendor?
at the moment ubercart is a single seller system, like the commerce in Drupal, I need a multi-seller system that support multiple sellers
1: each seller has their own backend to manage their own products/orders
2: each seller can input their payment account, when buyer pays, the money can be split into admin/seller's account. or hold into admin's account.
basically its a multi seller system, it needs a strong commerce system which backdrop doesn't has for now.
It seems that you have done your research so you are probably aware of this discussion which has a lot of useful information.

Having said that, you are describing some specific needs which may not be supported by Ubercart out of the box. I'm somewhat confident that you could write customizations to make a multi-seller system work, but this could mean a substancial amount of custom work (and/or writing new contrib modules).
Have you looked to see if Ubercart for Drupal has the capabilities you are looking for?
You may want to look at the Commerce module for modern Drupal (sounds like you did this already) or find a more robust commerce system.
