Answer 3

try to execute the command : composer update.
It will update and export all the directorys/files that u need.
because sometimes when u clone/download a repository from github .. there are pretty much directorys/files that are not present (not exportable .. present in .gitignor).
then try : php artisan serve.
it works for me

Answer 4

composer update
This will update and export directories and files and then run the below command :
php artisan serve
or you can also try this on your terminal:
php -S localhost:8000 -t public/

Answer 5

Just wanted to add to Jayhuan's answer above:
Laravel does the same thing behind the scenes, you can see the code here (look in serverCommand).
So to serve locally you would do:
php artisan serve --host mysite.com --port 8000

Answer 6

try only this
php -S localhost:8000

Answer 7

Your missing some Server Requirements
See the Laravel site for requirements.
Laravel Documentation
The Laravel framework has a few system requirements.
If you are not using Homestead, you will need to make sure your server meets the following requirements:
PHP >= 7.1.3
BCMath PHP Extension
Ctype PHP Extension
JSON PHP Extension
Mbstring PHP Extension
OpenSSL PHP Extension
PDO PHP Extension
Tokenizer PHP Extension
XML PHP Extension
To see a list of your extensions... From the command line:
$ php -m
I was missing BCMath and Tokenizer so I installed them with:
$ sudo apt-get install php-bcmath
$ sudo apt-get install php-tokenizer
Now you can use $ php artisan serve

Answer 8

Try the below code
php -S localhost:8000 -t public

Answer 9

I think you also check your path which you use in the composer like C:\Users\HP>
example:if your parent folder is blog then use
C:\Users\HP> cd blog/
C:\Users\HP>blog> php artisan serve

There could be multiple reasons for this problem one of the reasons is using old dependencies.
step 1: Check your current version of PHP and version of dependencies if they don't match proceed to next step.
step 2: replace the older dependencies with the newer one in composer.json file.
facade/ignition to ^2.3.6
laravel/framework to ^8.0
laravel/ui to ^3.0
nunomaduro/collision to ^5.0
phpunit/phpunit to ^9.0
The following first-party packages have new major releases to support Laravel 8. If applicable, you should read their individual upgrade guides before upgrading
Passport v10.0
Socialite v5.0
Telescope v4.0
Try to find the appropriate dependencies for your project and make sure u add the correct version of it in the composer.json file.
step 3: Now the next step is to update the composer
`composer update`
step 4: The last step is to run the artisan serve command.
php artisan serve
If all the dependencies are perfect then it will work. All the best.
