My guess is wrong php version. What is the php version on the server? You need at least 8.1 (first class callable support) https://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.first_class_callable_syntax.php

Syntax error, unexpected token ")" when sending mail in laravel 8
I know the title seems familiar but hear me out...
My code works locally when I try to send out an invoice via email and the email gets sent. However, I deployed the same code to production on ec2 and got this error; https://i.stack.imgur.com/wQS48.jpg
my controller code looks like this...
public function invoice_send(Request $request, Invoice $invoice)
{
Mail::to($request->to)->queue(new NewInvoice($invoice, $request));
return redirect()->route('invoice.show', $invoice);
}
The vendor folder is the only thing that is different between production and development servers so I deleted the vendor and ran composer install again but that didn't solve anything.
Any ideas?

@Sinnbeck PHP version on the server is 8.1.8

@lyndon Is the mail sent on a queue? If so, the cli might have a different php version

@Sinnbeck How so? how can I check and verify that?

@Sinnbeck I'm selecting this as the best answer because it pointed me in the right direction... the solution was to downgrade my PHP version from 8.1.8 to 8.0.21

@lyndon ok I assume that downgraded the package as well which fixed it :). Great that it worked
