Upgrading Laravel - Php version
Hello, Anyone had a same/similar problem? How to fix this? Where to find config.platform.php?
C:\Users\Tarik
λ cd /d e:lager
E:\lager
λ php artisan --version
Laravel Framework 5.4.34
E:\lager
λ php -v
PHP 7.0.0 (cli) (built: Dec 3 2015 09:31:42) ( ZTS )

Problem 1
- laravel/framework v5.5.3 requires php >=7.0 -> your PHP version (7.0.0) overridden by "config.platform.php" version (5.6.4) does not satisfy that requirement.
- laravel/framework v5.5.2 requires php >=7.0 -> your PHP version (7.0.0) overridden by "config.platform.php" version (5.6.4) does not satisfy that requirement.
- laravel/framework v5.5.1 requires php >=7.0 -> your PHP version (7.0.0) overridden by "config.platform.php" version (5.6.4) does not satisfy that requirement.
- laravel/framework v5.5.0 requires php >=7.0 -> your PHP version (7.0.0) overridden by "config.platform.php" version (5.6.4) does not satisfy that requirement.
- Installation request for laravel/framework 5.5.* -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[v5.5.0, v5.5.1, v5.5.2, v5.5.3].

Where to find config.platform.php? @andreasbakir
Level 22
type in your terminal
which php
it should give you the path of your default php installation which is propably php 5.x go to that folder and search for that config.platform.php (I am not sure if it is over there) or even beter uninstall that version of php

λ which php
/e/wamp64/bin/php/php7.0.0/php
Level 1
If your php version is >= 7.0 then the config.platform.php is getting a locked php version from composer.json
To fix problem open composer.json and configure platform as below:
"platform": { "php": "7.0" }
Then do a composer update
