Your problem
My problem is: I’ve unzipped the files in my main directory. When I visit my site, the URL updates to /installation but I get a 404 error.
These errors are showing in the log:

Steps I have tried to fix the problem:
I’ve taken a look at line 68 and used ChatGPT to help my try and troubleshoot this error. It says: indicates that foreach() is trying to iterate over a variable that is false, which likely means the variable was expected to be an array or object but instead received a bool (probably false). The troubleshooting from there never got us to a place where we found bool being marked as false and I was hesitant to modify any PHP without knowing for sure what changes I was making and getting in deeper.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
