I am not sure if i am doing anything wrong or not. I am installing Foreman with default following doc- Foreman :: Manual . But getting error below, not help from Google.
OS - centos > CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core) > x86_64
Note: Installation Is completed successfully but after OS reboot, getting this error and I have checked PostgreSQL db service is running fine.

I have no clue how you got to that stage, but this error suggests you packages didn’t install properly:

If you’re getting started, I’d recommend starting over on EL8. While Foreman 3.3 should work on EL7, Foreman 3.4 drops it so you’re essentially starting on a dead end.
