      I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but you should always upgrade to the x.x.0 versions first (in this case 2.6.0). That's where changes to the DB and file structure usually occur.

            Or you can get it and install it with a few clicks using the UpgradeMODX extra.

              Unfortunately, when I try to update 2.5.8-> 2.6.0, I get the same error

                  Does this file exist in that location?

                  /var/www/hvinfo/data/www/tst.ru/setup/includes/drivers/modinstalldriver_mysqli.class.php


                  If it does, there's a problem with its permissions or ownership or a similar problem with the directories above it.

                  If not, and you uploaded the MODX files individually using FTP, that often results in missing or corrupted files.

                  If you uploaded the MODX .zip file and expanded it on the server, it's easy to end up with all the files in a subdirectory named for the MODX version, rather than the MODX root.

                  What I would do in your situation is to roll back to 2.5.8 (assuming that you have a backup), then install and use the UpgradeMODX extra to upgrade to 2.6.0, then 2.6.1. It's much more reliable than copying the files yourself.

                    When I try to upgrade via UpgradedMODH I get the same error.
                    There is no file modinstalldriver_mysqli.class.php in the installation folder
                    modinstalldriver_sqlsrv.class.php
                    modinstalldriver_mysql.class.php
                    modinstalldriver.class.php

                      The problem was solved by replacing in the configuration file "mysqli" by "mysql"
