Thank you!
Something else I might as well add here for people like me who hadn't upgraded the component since the last mad rush to upgrade MODX when we started getting hacked... The site I was trying to upgrade is currently on a temp (/~username/) URL. I thought that might be causing the problem, so I tried another site that's on its own domain.
The first site is a new site, and I'd just installed UpgradeMODX for the first time (v2.0.3). The second site had v1.5.5 installed. When I upgraded it to v2.0.3, the manager dashboard page came up blank. I have MultiPHP installed on my server and that site was still on PHP 5.4. I upgraded it to PHP 7.1 and that fixed the problem. (Something in another thread tipped me off to check.)
I'm sure it probably mentions something that I missed about PHP versions in the install notes, but just in case anyone else does this upgrade with glazed-over eyes after a long day of work and ends up staring in confusion at a blank manager screen, v1.5.5, the one that was current last time there was a MODX upgrade, works on PHP 5.4, v2.0.3 doesn't.
If there's a better way to do it, I'll find it.

I wish I knew what that issue was. I tried really hard to make UGM work on all versions of PHP that MODX can run under.
