HasanMerkit is this a fresh installation or did it work previously?

Make sure you configure nginx rewrites correctly. You might need to write the try block for the subfolder manually.

You should also remove the public folder if installing in a subfolder https://docs.flarum.org/install/#customizing-paths

Make sure you update config.php with the correct URL.

clarkwinkelmann yes, is clean installation.

forum.com added to hosts file as 127.0.0.1,
current user permission rules:

usermod -aG www-data $USER
usermod -aG www-data root
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www
chmod -R 774 /var/www

config.php:

<?php return array (
  'debug' => true,
  'database' =>

    'host' => 'localhost',

/sites-enabled/forum.com file:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name forum.com *.forum.com;
    root /var/www/forum.com/public_html;

    index index.html index.htm index.php;
    
    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php8.2-fpm.sock;
     }
    
}

On my nginx servers with Flarum in a subdomain I had to add a location and try_files for both the root application and the subfolder application, something like this:

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location /forum/ {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /forum/index.php?$query_string;
    }

Don't forget to also adapt the deny rules for the subfolder. This is what I use:

    location ~* ^/forum/(\.git|composer\.(json|lock)|auth\.json|config\.php|flarum|storage|vendor|workbench) {
        deny all;
        return 404;
    }

Just include the .nginx.conf file under your Flarum root directory in the nginx configuration file
