npm install can't find all packages and when forced to install npm start has issues - npm

Question

I bought this template and am having troubles with npm install and npm start. Do you all have tips on fixing the vulnerabilties when I install and then after that is there something I need to do to get npm start to work?
When I run npm install I get the following output:
PS C:\Users\jonat\OneDrive\Documents\Projects\Boland_Front_end\boland_ecommerce_theme_bs5_v2.0> npm install
up to date, audited 935 packages in 2s
61 packages are looking for funding
run `npm fund` for details
8 vulnerabilities (1 moderate, 7 high)
To address issues that do not require attention, run:
npm audit fix
To address all issues possible (including breaking changes), run:
npm audit fix --force
Some issues need review, and may require choosing
a different dependency.
Run `npm audit` for details.

I can force the install with npm install --no-audit, but when I try npm start I get the following:
PS C:\Users\jonat\OneDrive\Documents\Projects\Boland_Front_end\boland_ecommerce_theme_bs5_v2.0> npm start
npm ERR! Missing script: "start"
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Did you mean one of these?
npm ERR! npm star # Mark your favorite packages
npm ERR! npm stars # View packages marked as favorites

npm ERR! C:\Users\jonat\AppData\Local\npm-cache\_logs\2022-09-02T21_58_05_615Z-debug-0.log
Upon looking in my package.json it appears start is missing from the scripts section. I added "start": "./bin/www" to the package.json and it gave me the following output:
PS C:\Users\jonat\OneDrive\Documents\Projects\Boland_Front_end\boland_ecommerce_theme_bs5_v2.0> npm start
> boland-2.0#1.0.0 start
> node ./bin/www
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:959
throw err;
