Older versions of PHP (5.4+) work but be aware that these versions have unfixed security vulnerabilities, do not use in production. PHP 8 works for the most part but still has some issues, please stick with PHP 7.4 for now.
With Nameless Installer: Download easy-install.php from here. Upload it to your server. Follow the easy steps to skip needing to upload and setting permissions for all of the files!
Without Nameless Installer: Download NamelessMC from here and upload it to your web server. Please note, this must be installed in the root as this is a standalone package. (make sure the web server has write access by changing file ownership to apache:apache, www-data:www-data, or www:www depending on your operating system and web server software)

Varies depending on the server configuration, however here is a guide for Ubuntu.
Error:
SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory
Meaning:
Your web server can't use the /tmp/mysql.sock file, as it doesn't exist or has no permissions.
Fix:
ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock
If that doesn't work, try giving your web server access to that file.
Error:
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Meaning:
Your MySQL information is incorrect, the MySQL database is on a different server and the IP is blocked by MySQL. then there are also the possibility that the firewall is blocking it. Finally it's listening on a different IP.
Fix:
Look at your MySQL information and fix the information if there is an information error. Else try to query this in
GRANT ALL ON *.* to user@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
Where you can change the user@ip and password
Else change
localhost
To
