Please start to help you : give us MORE informations ! No info = no help !

'I can't deploy the server' : I know only 'I install server' !

The better is to follow tutorial like https://ask.ocsinventory-ng.org/13105/tutorial-ocsserver-2-9-on-debian-10-buster?show=13105#q13105 (It's for Debian but it's efficiant !).

As Apache is a requirement, you need to verify the service starts correctly and have a look on the log (tail -f /var/log/apache2/access.log). You need to know also how Apache use configuration file ou site file, and probably adapt the config file supplied by OCS server installation ...

Your server seems mis-installed ...

Without informations of your installation and the way you choose to install, it's impossible to help you. (Sometimes it's more easy to follow a well tested tutorial ...)

IMHO creation of OCS server is easy with Debian.

For example https://ask.ocsinventory-ng.org/13105/tutorial-ocsserver-2-9-on-debian-10-buster?show=13105#q13105 is running well

My own procedure (for a fresh Debian Bullseye) :

# install MariaDB
apt install mariadb-server
mysql_secure_installation        # add password for root
mysql -u root -p XXXXX
 CREATE DATABASE ocsweb;
 CREATE USER 'ocsuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
 GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ocsweb.* to 'ocsuser'@'localhost';
 FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
 EXIT ;

# install Apache2 Php Perl + lib
apt install make cmake gcc build-essential        # for Perl building
apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-perl2 libapache-dbi-perl libapache-db-perl libapache2-mod-php
apt install php php-zip php-pclzip php-gd php-mysql php-soap php-curl php-json php-xml php-mbstring php-ldap
apt install perl libxml-simple-perl libcompress-zlib-perl libdbi-perl libdbd-mysql-perl libnet-ip-perl \
    libsoap-lite-perl libio-compress-perl libapache-dbi-perl libapache2-mod-perl2 libapache2-mod-perl2-dev \
    libdbd-mysql-perl libnet-ip-perl libxml-simple-perl libarchive-zip-perl

cpan install CPAN                # update cmd 'cpan'
cpan install XML::Entities Apache2::SOAP Net::IP Apache::DBI Mojolicious Switch Plack::Handler Archive::Zip

# install OCS Server
cd sources
wget https://github.com/OCSInventory-NG/OCSInventory-ocsreports/releases/ \
     download/2.X/OCSNG_UNIX_SERVER_2.X.tar.gz

tar xvzf OCSNG_UNIX_SERVER_2.X.X.tar.gz
cd OCSNG_UNIX_SERVER_2.X.X
vi setup.sh                 # put info DB_SERVER_xxx and some path

a2enconf ocsinventory-reports
a2enconf z-ocsinventory-server

apache2ctl -t         # is syntax correct ?
apache2ctl -S         # virtualhost ?
systemctl restart apache2

# launch reports to initialize DB
http://server/ocsreports/

# if OK
rm ocsreports/install.php   # better mv xxx xxx.old

# have a look on apache log
tail -f /var/log/apache2/access.log
# have a look on ocs activity
tail -f /var/log/ocsinventory-server/activity.log

(I tested : from a fresh VM Debian Bullseye, I dit it in 20' with copy/paste + 5' for adding/setting agent ... but I'm experienced ;) it need more and more time and knowledge for add certificate, use https, use different path, ...)
