Description

I manually installed LimeSurvey 7.0.15+ in the following environment:
Server OS: AlmaLinux 9
PHP: 8.1
Database: MySQL 8.0
Web Server: Apache 2.4

The installation completed successfully. However, after accessing LimeSurvey and attempting to create a new survey, the survey editor appears blank and I am unable to add or configure the survey.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce

  1. Download LimeSurvey 7.0.15+ from: https://download.limesurvey.org/latest-master/limesurvey7.0.15+260910.zip
  2. Upload the ZIP file to the server and extract it.
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
  4. Log in to the LimeSurvey administration panel.
  5. Try to create a new survey.
  6. Observe that the survey editor is blank.

Expected result

The survey editor should load correctly and allow me to create and configure a new survey without any issues.

Actual result

The survey editor is blank, and I am unable to add or configure a survey.
