Plex Media Server doesn't start after installation on MacOS

Server Version#: 1.31.2.6739

I downloaded the Plex Media Server on my M1 Mac Mini from the site, unpack and then do the first start. On the Server Setup screen after waiting for a little bit it throws an error message below

A problem has been detected with a core component of Plex Media Server.

I have a similar problem after update Osx to Catalina 10.15.7. Tried to install older versions of PMS but the problem still exist :frowning:
