Desperately trying to Migrate a D7 install to D8+to

Hello all, I am attempting to upgrade/migrate from from a mus behaving D7 to a clean D8, D9, D10. 

The actual process works well, except for the migration of the comments module.  I have searched for a solution without success. I am hoping someone could provide advice or if willing, perform the upgrade for me. 

The error in the migrate UI is:

Migration d7_comment did not meet the requirements. Missing migrations d7_node_complete:story. requirements: d7_node_complete:story

Check if Drupal was installed using composer

Hallo folks, 

I took over a Drupal site from another admin. How can I tell if Drupal was installed with Composer? I myself have always installed Drupal manually and always carried out all updates manually.

Drupal 7 end-of-life re-extension?

In https://www.drupal.org/psa-2022-02-23, where it was announced the extension to Drupal 7's end-of-life date to 1 November 2023, it was also stated that: "We will announce by July 2023 whether we will extend Drupal 7 community support an additional year. " 

PHP 8 version breaks me.

I inherited a Drupal site. When I attempt to switch php I receive the following error.

Fatal error: Declaration of Drupal\Core\Database\Statement::fetchAll($mode = null, $column_index = null, $constructor_arguments = null) must be compatible with PDOStatement::fetchAll(int $mode = PDO::FETCH_DEFAULT, mixed ...$args) in /core/lib/Drupal/Core/Database/Statement.php on line 169

Do I need to update Core before I can update php?

Thank you.

Deployment steps after an upgrade

each upgrade come generally with some DB updates, this may change some table schema as well as some configurations..

in the deployment process, the steps I use (after upgrading using composer and push the composer files) as follow:

drupal 7 -> drupal 9 (or 10) with only the db

I had an old Debian 2 releases behind stable with drupal7 from debs. The drupal was so unmaintained that it got hacked and started to send spam all over, so I decided to upgrade it. For that, I removed the packages (but not the site) and upgraded the machine to stable again. So far so good.

In that upgrade process I also backed up and restored the D7 db from PG 9.1 to PG 13 (the new PG version in stable), and now I want to 'upgrade' the old setup by 'installing a fresh drupal'; meaning, I want to install drupal the new ways (with composer) while kind of upgrading the old db.
