Migrating and Upgrading to Joomla! 5.x • Re: I set the Update Channel to Next but get no update

I have your jpa file
Installed on localhost
front end returns a 500 error
renamed .htaccess No Avail
Checked livesite ... No value so that's not why.

robots.txt renders

Looking to see if there is a quick fix

/administrator shows the error
The apcu Cache Storage is not supported on this platform

Addendum
Edited apcu in configuration.php

Once in /administrator
Checking for updates does not offer 'Reinstall core files'
Used upload and update to inclemently update to J4.4.9
each time asked to log in then updated
Still no avail
Each time updated with error
error log says
