**OS Fedora 38**
_PHP 8.0 (but started at 8.3)_ :
\*My MySQL/MariaDB 10.5.23-1
\*I am Installing 4.4 (but tried 5.x)
\*installing via Command Line
My issue:
I started out trying to install via github (5.x), that failed (posted a question for that install [Can't get Mautic to install correctly](https://forum.mautic.org/t/cant-get-mautic-to-install-correctly/30247)). So I’ve been trying to install (4.4.10) via composer. I’m a little lost here as I don’t know composer.
I was finally able to get composer to create a 4.4 package.
composer create-project mautic/recommended-project:^4 mautic --no-interaction
Congratulations, you’ve installed the Mautic codebase
from the mautic/recommended-project template!
Next steps:
- Install Mautic
What did composer just do then? The package created generates the same errors I got trying to do the github instructions.
I tried to do a composer install and got nothing to install.
composer install

I’m not sure I’m making progress, but I did find a reference that I needed to run
/index.php/installer
and that does give me some different but less positive output.
I’m now seeing all js references complaining as follows:
The resource from “[http://mautic.dev.realtyintn.com/index.php/themes/pmahomme/jquery/jquery-ui.css”](http://mautic.dev.realtyintn.com/index.php/themes/pmahomme/jquery/jquery-ui.css%E2%80%9D) was blocked due to MIME type (“text/html”) mismatch (X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff).
The apparent fix for this is code side, not server/config side.
Any thoughts?
