}

I have on my server php 8.1

When I try: composer install I have error:

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

How can I repair it?

The error message indicates that some of the required packages have a minimum PHP version requirement that is not satisfied by the PHP version installed on your server. In this case, the required PHP version is lower than the version you have installed.

To fix this issue, you can either upgrade your PHP version to meet the minimum requirement or downgrade the required packages to versions that are compatible with your PHP version.

In this case, since you have PHP 8.1 installed, you can try downgrading the laravel/framework package to a version that is compatible with PHP 8.1. According to the error message, the highest version that is compatible with PHP 8.1 is v9.x-dev.

To do this, update your composer.json file to require laravel/framework v9.x-dev instead of v10.3:

"require": {
    ...
    "laravel/framework": "^9.0",
    ...
},

Then run composer update to update your dependencies.

If you still encounter issues, you can try removing the conflicting packages and their dependencies from your vendor directory and composer.lock file, then running composer install again.

Note that downgrading packages may result in compatibility issues with other packages or your application code, so it's important to thoroughly test your application after making any changes.

Yes, I have this results:

No composer.lock file present. Updating dependencies to latest instead of installing from lock file. See https://getcomposer.org/install for more information.

Hi @trifek,

I had the same problem with a webapp upgrading to Laravel 10. You'll need to check the third party packages in your app and make sure you have the right version for laravel 10.

In your case, I can see that fideloper/proxy is included in the framework from Laravel 9. See the information here: https://github.com/fideloper/TrustedProxy/issues/152

If you keep receiving error on some dependencies, take a look at the git repository for each package.

I hope it helps you.

Cheers!
