You need to read the upgrade guide in the documentation.
https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/upgrade
Some of the dependencies you use needs to be bumped up to a the version that Laravel requires.
Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
Can someone help me troubleshoot my upgrade:
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.
Problem 1
- Conclusion: don't install laravel/framework v8.21.0
- Conclusion: don't install laravel/framework v8.20.1
etc
- Installation request for dyrynda/laravel-efficient-uuid 4.3.0 -> satisfiable by dyrynda/laravel-efficient-uuid[4.3.0].
- Conclusion: don't install laravel/framework v8.0.1
etc
laravel/passport 9.x-dev requires illuminate/support ^6.18.31|^7.22.4 -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[v7.29.3, 7.x-dev, 6.x-dev], illuminate/supp
I don't really understand what the problem is?
What do I need to learn to master this?
Cheers,
Mick
