V8-archive: Getting "Couldn't reach api" after upgrading to 8.5.4

[AstralProgrammer]

Version: Directus: 8.5.4
Error: Couldn't reach API
PHP version: PHP 7.3
MySQL version: 8.0.17

The story so far:
I'm upgrading from 7.9.0 to 8.5.4. I've have the github repo setup as an upstream then pulled and merged the master branch into a local branch.
I've followed the guide for upgrading in https://github.com/directus/directus/releases/tag/v8.0.0.
I've remove the vendor folder then re-run composer install to keep everything clean.

What I currently experiencing:
The login page is loaded just fine but once I logged in, it shows the loading bar then shows the "Couldn't reach API" error.
I've checked the requested endpoints and they are all returning 200. No error found on the log file as well.

Hello,

we had a very similar issue, try to see if this can help:

• in the directus_settings table, try setting "project_logo" as empty string. This can be useful if you use Redis as cache backend, see #1701
• also, in the directus_settings table, try setting "auto_sign_out" to a non-null value, for example 10080 that is the default in Directus8. See #1702

Hope this helps ;)

Setting the project_logo to null fixed the issue. Thanks @ale-rinaldi
