I just installed Lightroom Classic Version 8 and none of my photos appear and I see no option to open my catalogue.  What am I doing wrong?  Thanks.

There is no Lightroom Classic 8. Lightroom Classic is at version 14. Sounds like you have installed Lightroom desktop, rather than Lightroom Classic. These are different apps and they do not use the same catalog.
