I'm trying to install Drupal on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10/RHEL10.1  I was able to perform the first steps of the installation via Composer with on issues.  

I'm now trying to execute the next step to get the installation screen to display.  I'm have installed PHP 8.3.19 and have installed the most recent release of Drupal CMS 1.2.8. 

To contiue the installation process I'm executing the following command:

php -S localhost:8888 .ht.router.php

As a result of the above command I'm getting the following resutls: 

PHP 8.3.19 Development Server (http://localhost:8888) started
[Sun Nov 23 11:28:21 2025] [::1]:34004 Accepted

[Sun Nov 23 11:28:22 2025] [::1]:34016 Closing

Can some tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to correct my issue.  

I'm new to Druapal and to the world of PHP.  

Thanks

If this is for local development, perhaps try DDEV? https://www.drupal.org/docs/getting-started/installing-drupal/install-dr...
