trying to setup phpbb...

Sorry for my ignorance, I'm new to nginx.
I'm trying to setup a new server with phpbb running. Its debian 10 (buster). followed this guide to setup:

https://hostup.org/blog/how-to-install-nginx-and-php-7-3-on-debian-10/

Then I used parts of this guide to get phpbb configured:

https://websiteforstudents.com/install-phpbb-on-ubuntu-17-04-17-10-with-nginx-mariadb-and-php-support/

The reason I used seperate guides was OS specific differences.

I'm done and I have phpbb loaded in /var/shared/nginx/html. When I open the root page, it takes me to the phpbb pre-installer page. seems fine! but when I click install, it takes me to http://phpbb/install/app.php/install and 404s. for clearification, I have an entry in my local computers host file directing phpbb to the servers IP.

I remember an option somewhere indicating I needed to test the site config, but I cant find it and nginx -t jus tchecks nginx's own configuration... am I missing something?
