Get couldn't reach api while upgraded from 7 to 8

[leonglkt]

After upgrade to 8.3.1, I always get couldn't reach api during login, directus didn't have any error message in the log, but I still can use api access the data of collections.
And I also try remove all existing config, browse directus 8 admin page, I get some introduction to create an new project, I follow the step to create project by an new database, the new project can login and work fine. but it is not possible to re-input the data into this new project.

You need to use Phinx to upgrade your old database because the database structure of the new version has changed.

@leonglkt - TBH, I didn't understand the exact issue. But what I understood is you're not able to login after upgrading the version. At the same time, I think the stand-alone APIs are working as you mentioned. Can you please provide more details like your PHP version, directus version [As we have almost 7 versions after 8.0.0], etc.

Screen recording of the issue will provide more help to resolve the issue.

OS: Centos 7.7.1908
Nginx : 1.16.1
PHP : 7.2.26
Directus : 8.3.1 / 8.4.0

Test case 1. Copy existing project config into a clean Directus(8.3.1), base on release note to modify the config(Directus 7 - 190927A), but I always got "Couldn't reach API" during login, but I still can use api access the data of collections. not error log found

Test case 2. Create an new project on a clean Directus(8.4.0). At this moment, I can login and work fine for this project, and then, I use mysqldump to backup exsiting project (Directus 7 - 190927A), and use mysql restore into the database of this new project, I got "Internal Server Error". I got follow error log
