Seafile seafile-server-9.0.10 failed to start, throwing error

Seafile Server
1

Downloaded a brand new Seafile 9.0.10 64bit distribution for Oracle Linux 7.9, with python 3 running with all the required packages, seafile server configuration has been completed successfully, however when I try to start the seafile.sh file, I am getting the below message. Any help would be appreciated.

See the OS compatibility chart: Seafile Release Table

If I read it correctly, Seafile version 8 was the last to support Oracle Linux 7.9 (by way of supporting that being about the same as supporting RHEL 7.9, which is about the same as supporting Centos 7.9). With seafile version 9 and 10 it looks like Centos/RHEL/Oracle 8 is supported.

Thank you for seafile table matrix, very helpful!
How do I get a link to download seafile version 8 or 7? as in the download page only version 9 and/or version 10 available.

Those old versions are technically not supported anymore, but I think you can just modify the version number in the download link. Change 9.0.10 to 8.0.8 and it should download (at least that worked back sometime in maybe the 7.0 era when I needed to do it once).
