if you open it in a incognito browser tab is there the same issue?

sorry for the delayed response.

can you check if all of the following packages are installed?

apache2 apt-transport-https apt-utils bzip2 composer cron curl dvipng g++ gcc git-core gnupg gnupg1 gnupg2 imagemagick jetty9 make mariadb-client mariadb-server memcached ocaml-nox make mariadb-client mariadb-server memcached ocaml-nox php-pear poppler-utils python3 screen sudo unzip vim wget librsvg2-bin php php-cli php-common php-curl php-gd php-intl php-ldap php-mbstring php-mysql php8.2-opcache php-sqlite3 php-xml php8.2-zip php-fpm

in addition make sure the following apache modules are ENABLED  
a2enmod rewrite  
a2enmod ssl  
a2enmod rewrite ssl proxy proxy\_fcgi setenvif http2 mpm\_event

make sure this one is configured  
a2enconf php8.2-fpm

also make sure the following are DISABLED

a2dismod php8.2  
a2dismod mpm\_prefork

also don’t forget to restart the apache2 service after these changes if there were any

I hope this helps
