WebDude Is it possible to install a more recent version of PHP on the free account? I'm hoping to run / install version 10.x of Laravel?
Admin WebDude Hello, and welcome to the forum! While it is possible to host Laravel projects here, it’s not possible to create them here as we don’t provide SSH or terminal access. You will have to create your Laravel project on your personal computer, and once you are finished building your site, you can upload all of the files to your “htdocs” folder here.
WebDude Thanks for the welcome, good to be here! ...and thanks for the tips on uploading the Laravel project to a Tinkerhost. If I'm reading the Laravel documentation correctly, version 10 needs php 8.1. Is it possible to upgrade php to 8.1 on the account?
Admin WebDude One of our servers currently has PHP 8 installed on it, however many of the PHP extensions we offer don't seem to want to work with PHP 8 in our environment. We are trying to figure it out, but in the meantime the rest of our servers are on PHP 7.4.8. Taking a look at the Laravel system requirements, the latest version you should be able to successfully run here is 8x. https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/deployment#server-requirements Hopefully we will be able to get PHP 8 working on all servers soon!
