I had deployed EspoCRM using easypanel about 1.5 years ago.
To the best of my understanding,easypanel at the time used this: https://hub.docker.com/layers/espocr...6933af60106c29 7c4200cdb02129

Since then, it has never been an issue to upgrade to newer versions but now I am stuck on version 9.2.7 because when I try to upgrade I'm getting php version error.

Current version is 9.2.7.
EspoCRM will be upgraded to version 9.3.4 now. Enter [Y] to continue.
Y
This may take a while. Do not close the terminal.

Please be kind and suggest how shall I upgrade it to the latest version.
I can try to upgrade the PHP version, but I'm afraid it might break something else.

Support for 9.3+ starts with php8.3. So there is nothing surprising in your error.

EspoCRM v9.2.7 works fine on both php8.2, php8.3 and php8.4.
So, having EspoCRM v9.2.7, you need to first upgrade php to 8.3 or php8.4 and only then run the upgrade procedure of your instance.
