When I install Magento, the latest Magento version is Magento ver 2.4.3-p1, and ver 2.3.7-p2. You may ask why I do not install the latest version, instead, I choose Magento ver 2.3.6-p1.
My hosting server is using Centos7, Nginx, and php7.3. Just because the PHP version is 7.3. I only can choose Magento ver 2.3.6-p1. Magento ver 2.4.3-p1, and ver 2.3.7-2 need php7.3, and ElasticSearch. I do not want to use ElasticSearch either. My web hosting server is only 2 cores and 4 Gb of memories. Before I have tried to install Elastic Search, the server runs much more slower!
Next are the steps and the issues I met while I install Magneto ver 2.3.6-p1. The demo shop is https://www.eyewearca.com
Download Magento 2.3.6-p1
https://magento.com/tech-resources/download
Why do I choose to download Magento 2.3.6-p1, and not install it using composer? I also have tried using composer already. I met so many issues.
cd www.eyewearca.com (cd /home/glasses/eyewearca.com)
upload magento 2.3.6-p1
unzip magento-ce-2.3.6-p1.zip
find var generated vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type f -exec chmod g+w {} +
find var generated vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type d -exec chmod g+ws {} +
chown -R www.www . # vim /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf, check nginx user group
chmod u+x bin/magento
install magento:

Why degrade composer? Mangeto ver 2.3.6 does not support composer 2 well.
composer self-update 1.10.16
