What manual modifications, if any were made in placing the files on the server? Better yet, please describe the process of this install and changed made to get to the current state.

No files modified. Its fresh copy of zencart v1.5.7d

I have uploaded all files on root.

Is Zencart 1.5.7d compitible with PHP 8?

[ntestinfo11]

I followed below process :

1) Downloaded Current zencart zip file

2) upload zip using filezilla ftp on root directory

3) extract zip using cpanel filemanager

4) Move all files/folders to root/public_html

5) Then I navigate to open site. And it should show me installer screen. But gives me blank page.

Switch back to PHP 7.4 and see what happens. Could be you don't have the mysqli extension installed on PHP8?

Update :

When I run install script manually it worked.

Yep that's part of the procedure.

If you have never done this before, it's really worthwhile to follow the documentation.
