Installing Drupal

Hello There,

I am trying to install a premium D8 theme whose developer does not give support anymore. I uploaded the demo theme files in Public-html. I exported the DB into PHPMyadmin. But when I go to settings.php file to add the db details, it does not show the theme at all. I have tried it several times. But I am not sure what mistake I am making. Could anyone please let me know what should I be doing to properly install the theme?

The address of the site is as follows.

https://aliyana31.sg-host.com/

I've been trying to upgrade a client's website to 9.0.0 for the last few days without success.

I typically follow the manual upgrade guide where you download the tarball, remove the old vendor/core folders and contents, copy the new vendor/core folders to take their place, and run /update.php but this breaks the site every time. I've updated all modules before updating, same result. I appreciate any and all help. This site is running on Ubuntu 18.04 VPS with OpenLiteSpeed.

We get this error on the homepage after installing the new files:

Sorry, this got posted twice and I don't know how to delete it.

I have been struggling to install Drupal for at least two weeks on and off.  My latest attempt I thought had succeeded.  I get a welcome page (I think it is the home page)  But I never got Clean URLs to work.  After several attempts, I select install anyway.  I think that maybe the root of my issues.

I want to start a new site on my server, but right now I can upgrade mariadb, and apache to the required versions for 9.0. Is there still a way to install a new site using composer, but force it to use D8.8.9?

When installing Drupal 9.0.0 rc-1,

The installer GUI asks for Profile and then Database Information

after that , rather that going to install process step, it goes back to start , asks for Profile again and after clicking on next, lands this error.

When checking Database, tables have been created , but the install process is failing
