Just upgrade Zabbix related software to 4.4. When Zabbix server is started, database upgrade will be executed automatically. Once the database upgrade process is complete, it will be accessible from the new version of the web front end.
I recommend getting a backup before working.-
my database do not upgrade. kindly take note that db on seperate server. do all servers require connect to internet? i have local repos in our network. -
Did you import data from the previous version database into the new environment? Have you set the connection information of the new Zabbix server database to connect to the migrated database server?
If you have upgraded each software version, you do not need to be able to connect to the Internet.

I'm late to the party here, but I just went through a similar problem and I thought I'd document it here...
Our configuration has the Zabbix Server running on Linux and a MySQL database running in an Amazon RDS instance. After upgrading the Zabbix Server from 4.0 to Zabbix 4.4 using the process we found at https://www.zabbix.com/documentation.../debian_ubuntu, the Zabbix web UI stopped working, giving us error messages complaining of an unsupported database. What had us scratching our heads was that the server logs revealed the update had in fact been completed successfully.
The problem turned out to be that the UI as distributed also has database configuration information in the file /usr/share/zabbix/conf/zabbix.conf.php and for some reason, after the upgrade, this file was reset to its defaults of MySQL running on the localhost. Strangely, the update managed to get the database password populated into this secondary file, but not the hostname, port and so on.
Once we fixed the file above, everything worked fine.Comment
