System limit for number of file watchers reached
Try npm run build instead
Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
I am on Linux behind a firewall, behind a firewall, this staging / dev server is almost identical in experience to our live servers. PHP 8.0.20, node -v is v12.22.2, and this is a fresh Laravel app I whipped up about 10 minutes ago. The only thing I have done so far was to pull in Laravel, and livewire, and run the first migration.
any help would be much appreciated...
