Hi,
I'm new with this server stuff

Then I followed the instructions from here
https://www.audiobookshelf.org/install
`
wget https://advplyr.github.io/audiobookshelf-ppa/audiobookshelf_2.2.1_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./audiobookshelf_2.2.1_amd64.deb

but did not work

The i tried to install the package
audiobookshelf_2.2.1_amd64.deb in Webmin

and get this:

I am not an expert, but it looks like you are missing the xz program.

running should do the trick
sudo apt-get install xz-utils
