Please confirm this isn't a support request.

I investigated it and noticed in the file: vendor\roots\acorn\src\Roots\Acorn\Application.php on line 139 there is something strange happening in my opinion.

$this->{$supportedPaths[$pathType]} = Str::startsWith($path, $this->absoluteCachePathPrefixes)
                ? $path
                : $this->basePath($path);

It seems that it is prepending the basePath with the given path in the function basePath:

public function basePath($path = '')
{
    return $this->joinPaths($this->basePath, $path);
}

when the path is e.g. C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\plugins\laravel-wordpress-plugin/src\storage/framework\cache it prepends it with: C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\plugins\laravel-wordpress-plugin/src\ which becomes: C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\plugins\laravel-wordpress-plugin/src\C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\plugins\laravel-wordpress-plugin/src\storage/framework\cache and that path does not exists and fails.

This is not a bug with Acorn. Please refer to https://github.com/roots/acorn/pull/370 or wait until an official release which will include an upgrade guide.

Update:

Even then it does not work. Can you please test this.

@Log1x Thank you for your suggestion, but it is not working even if I define the paths it is not assigning it as I debug.

E.g.

add_action('plugins_loaded', function () {
  Application::configure()
  ->withProviders([
    WordpressPluginTemplate\App\Providers\PluginServiceProvider::class,
  ])
  ->withPaths('customAppPath', 'customConfigPath', 'etc')
  ->withRouting(
     web: __DIR__.'\src\routes\web.php',
  )
  ->boot();
});

You need to pass an array of paths as seen here or a base path to Application::configure() as seen here.

Please use Discourse for support.
