Hi, Looking to do a local install of different php/laravel apps, and find a number of the apps are old, and have issues with m teste server. Running ubuntu 22 with php 8.3. The issue seems to occur with incompatibilities beyeen the "old" packages in the app (composer.json) files. So, I'm looking to talk to anyone that might have insight ijnto steps to resolve this issue in the apps. I've left msgs to the issue forums, as well as emails to the authors were possible. the test server.. standard digital ocean, ubuntu, etc.. thanks It depends on what the packages are. If they're part of the base install of the older version of Laravel, then you shouldn't have any problem upgrading. I would advise upgrading one version number at a time, rather than upgrade many versions at once.

Are you following their own upgrade guide (specific to your version)?, e.g.: https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/upgrade Ash Ashley Sheridan Web developer and accessibility advocate https://ashleysheridan.co.uk
