Make sure all your software is compatible with 4.0. If not then 4 won't work.

It is not clear if the installation finished successfully or if it failed. What was the last thing you did before the error message was displayed?

Please post the results from the Forum Post Assistant (FPA) by following the instructions at https://forumpostassistant.github.io/docs/ so that our volunteer experts can review the configuration.

Since 500 errors are generic, turn on Error Reporting / Debug and post any errors shown. Turn these on through the configuration.php file and/or through your hosting service - cPanel or in the php.ini or .htaccess files. (depends on your host what method they allow (if they allow it).

Was this a migration from Joomla 3.10 or a direct clean install?

Did you check the minimum requirements for J4?

PHP 7.2.5+ with PHP 8.x recommended. I'm not sure if that now includes PHP 8.2.9 - although J4 may work in it, won't mean your extensions do.
