1. SMF 2.1.4
2. I was restoring it because 1 section on the forum was missing when switching to a newer version.
3. Error: "Unable to load the 'WIRELESS_PROTOCOL_boardindex' template" when navigating from the site to this section, Googling forced me to restore all the tables.
4. I can only provide index.php file (https://disk.yandex.ru/d/DMQtV3NRC67Qug) and link (https://forum.expert-cm.ru/index.php?action=rating)

This is not a real-time support site.  So bumping after only 2 hours is rude.
QuoteI was restoring it because 1 section on the forum was missing when switching to a newer version.

Please expand on this.
Switching from what previous version?

How did you upgrade?

If there were database changes,  you cannot just restore and old database... 
Also,  restoring PART of a database is a sure route to problems.


A template problem is rarely due to database issues.

Are you using the default theme?

it was updated from SMF 2.0 RC4 to 2.1.4 in the usual way via install.php
Тема на старом форуме была SMF Default Theme - Curve

You can now connect to the old forum if you do this in windows-system32-drivers-etc-hosts: and register: 62.173.154.157 forum.expert-cm.ru , then the link to this https://forum.expert-cm.ru/index.php?action=rating It works

I can also give you full access to two servers. oh, I forgot, the transition was from the old dedicated server to debian 7 from mysql 4+ to debian 12 from mysql 10+

And you made sure to overwrite all existing files, with fresh files from the upgrade package?

1- after restoring the old database contents, you will have to run upgrade.php AGAIN! -- and probably run repair_settings.php, since the old database will have the old server info

2- You can not use 2.0 themes in 2.1

but somehow you can do without restoring the database because the forum has already been running for 2 weeks and there are a lot of posts there. I would not like to delete them and update the settings again.

What is this error?

The server did not respond in 30 seconds. It might be worth waiting a little longer before trying again.Click here to try again.

Not an error at all. Just a notification, that things aren't going as fast as the script expects. Usually, giving it time is all it takes. Sometimes, on some servers, it can be a little more than just "little longer".
