The error you have indicates that the system administrator has disabled its use. As far as I know, there is no valid reason to do that. It might be an error in the server setup. Someone else reported the same issue in the past here : [ wordpress.org/support/topic/exception-wh...from-php-7-4-to-8-0/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exception-when-switching-from-php-7-4-to-8-0/) You'll have to contact your hosting support for help. That function not being available on your hosting is not normal and it should be possible to enable it back.
