I am having trouble installing CIVICRM on my Joomla powered domain.
Here is my environment:

I tied installing the civicrm-5.32.2-joomla-alt.zip and the civicrm-5.32.2-joomla.zip builds, but after a while I receive the following:
"Service Unavailable The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
Additionally, a 503 Service Unavailable error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."
In file manager, the folders ~/administrators/components/com_civicrm/ and ~/components/com_civicrm and their subfolders are present. the folder ~/media/civicrm is not present. The database does not show any Civicrm tables.
Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong? Thank you in advance.
Thank you all for the answers. I have set up my test local environment with a new install of joomla 3.9.22 and was successful in installing Civicrm.
On the production environment, I downgraded to php 7.3 and applied the suggested patch to the joomla 3.9.23. After proceeding with the installation of civicrm, I am getting a different error message:
An error has occurred. 0 undefined extension class 'Smarty_Internal_Method_Assign_By_Ref'
Does anyone know what went wrong and how to solve the issue?
