The other day I upgraded a Laravel project to latest version and I got the below error
Laravel include_path='.:/usr/local/Cellar/php/8.2.5/share/php/pear'
Turns out that I was missing a file which is server.php.
Server.php lies in the very core of Laravel and responsible for start up of Laravel index.php file. Create a file name server.php in the project root folder and then put the code below
<?php
/**
* Laravel - A PHP Framework For Web Artisans
*
* @package Laravel
* @author Taylor Otwell <taylor@laravel.com>
*/
$uri = urldecode(
parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH)
);
// This file allows us to emulate Apache's "mod_rewrite" functionality from the
// built-in PHP web server. This provides a convenient way to test a Laravel
// application without having installed a "real" web server software here.
if ($uri !== '/' && file_exists(__DIR__.'/public'.$uri)) {
return false;
}
require_once __DIR__.'/public/index.php';
