Laravel Issue on Initial Startup
I just started to try and create a Laravel project and have successfully done so, but when I start the server it immediately shows that I have an error in my index.php file for this following line of code (require_once DIR.'/../bootstrap/app.php') ->handleRequest(Request::capture()). I've tried to change versions and it is still not fixed. Keep in mind I haven't change the template code. It also points to this code having an error require_once $publicPath.'/index.php' in the \vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Foundation\resources\server .php directory.

@jbloomstrom I have tried to do that a couple of times and am required to do "composer install --ignore-platform-req=ext-fileinfo" but it says that there is Nothing to Install, Update or Remove. "It also says Composer could not detect the root package (laravel/laravel) version, defaulting to '1.0.0'. But the composer.json has the framework at V11.0.

@jbloomstrom I ended up fixing it by downgrading to Laravel version 10 and enabling extension=fileinfo in the php.ini file.

Write exactly what you did. Do not use composer install when creating a Laravel project.
Beginners only have to do 3 steps.
composer create-project laravel/laravel:^11.0 example-app
cd example-app
php artisan serve
Exit server : Ctrl+C
