Solution
That’s a php version issue. Upgrade laravel or downgrade PHP. This article covers how to downgrade the PHP version so it matches the Laravel Version.
Go to your composer.json update line
"php": "^7.3",
To
"php": ">=8.1.17",
After that and run composer update
You would have to use Composer to update your Laravel Framework version and all of its dependencies to at least version 8.
The error is solved
