The TP4056 is a lithium battery charging module. The output voltage will be less than 5V. The DC-DC converter should be a boost regulator, not a buck regulator. You haven't stated the part number of your regulator. I expect it is a buck regulator and it cannot make a higher voltage on its output.Shouldn't it power up with the type C plug-in adaptor ? I am using my phone charger for this , the lights come up in the TP4056 , so current is flowing through .Ok. You said "The issue is that my PI is not powering up." That's probably because it's not connected.I didn't connect it yet , i just used the type C charger for now , but the solar panel is a mini one with the specs : 6V, 160mA, 0.96W
Your solar panel is too small. It will not produce sufficient power to run a Pi.
