Hi, @respodeveloper, did you select a folder and type a project name? I just saw the validation is failing and allowing to create a project without a name, I'll fix this in the next version

[martin-arvisais]

I've got the same issue. I select a folder, and enter a project name. JetStream + team, Mysql

[TiagoSilvaPereira]

I've got the same issue. I select a folder, and enter a project name.

Could you please try running Vemto 2 from command line and check if there is an error message during the project creation steps?

What's the command for running it in cli ?

From Windows, you can go to the Vemto installation path from command line and run:

start Vemto.exe

So you can check the whole stdout content in the terminal while executing actions on Vemto:

@respodeveloper @martin-arvisais also please check if the folders were created correctly and if you can connect manually to them

@respodeveloper ok, seems the problem is your PHP version, as you can see:

Cannot use laravel/laravel's latest version v11.0.0 as it requires php ^8.2 which is not satisfied by your platform.

Just upgrade it to 8.2+ and it will probably work.

Also we'll fix this to correctly show the error message when the command fails.

[martin-arvisais]

I switch to PHP 8.3 and now it work great!

[respodeveloper]

is it possible to choose which laravel version to install , we are still using laravel 10 ?

[respodeveloper]

Updated php version , its working now. I think maybe for future, it would be nice to be able to specify the laravel version when creating projects so it pulls the one you using for your projects compared to latest version. 👍🏾👍🏾
