Here we go what I did and found out.
I use Hyper-V as platform with the latest updates until now.
The Ubuntu image I used before could not install: Ubuntu 18.04.
Downloading Ubuntu 18.04 version 5 .iso solved that problem.
Installed Nginx 1.18, Nariadb 15.1, PHP7.4-FPM and configured the user in Unix to cope with permissions.
The basic NGINX site was working including php, then copied my old wordpress with the wp-config.php file to /var/www/html/
Received again http500 error but now got a parsing error in the log file.
expecting end of file in /var/www/html/wordpress/wp-config.php
Found a double block starting again with <php.
After removing the extra information up to the second <php, everything started to work.
Now going to learn wordpress …YEAH
