Multiple tries to install failed

[Blababam]

I have attempted to install Caldera on ubuntu live server 24, and 22. most recently i have made the install on ubuntu live server 24 and am able to build the server and attempt to access it. Upon loading the webpage at my servers ip port 2222 it loads an invalid http response. If i go to my ip at port 8888 it loads an internal server error 500 server got itself into trouble.
Please let me know what logs need provided in order to resolve this.

Can you restart your server with the --log DEBUG argument and provide the terminal output from starting the server and attempting to log in?

Same issue for me.

[Blababam]

Solved by updating the requirements.txt file aiohttp version to 3.10.8
