It was my old nemesis firewall.

@Richard G it is Active8 :)
Just see the problem but it seems that this was an error from user side (firewall) and its solved
@Mixtery glad that the migration went well, please share your experience like,
1. did you followed the how-to one by one as described?
2. encounter any other problems or weird error messages ?
3. environment like bare metal or VPS ?

i did yes

No, everything runs fine now. Only issue was the firewall. The how-to was a great help!
3. environment like bare metal or VPS ?
Bare metal.
 
Sorry @Active8 and thanks for having a look.

Good to see everything's fixed now. I never had thought that a firewall could cause such odd error notices as "no such file or directory" or "no authentication method available". Have to keep that in mind for later.
 
Anyone tried this with CentOS7 with Cloudlinux installed? Or is it better to uninstall Cloudlinux temporarily and reinstall after upgrade?
