I can not download in laravel 8

[lethanhquoc2014]

I have an error when I run this command:
php artisan ckfinder:download
=> Could not download the distribution package of CKFinder.
What should I do, please ?

[Besanh]

Try it, composer require ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package -W

@lethanhquoc2014 do you still have the problem?

I have problem composer require ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package -W

Using version ^4.0 for ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package
./composer.json has been updated
Running composer update ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package --with-all-dependencies
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Problem 1
- Root composer.json requires ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package ^4.0 -> satisfiable by ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package[v4.0.0].
- ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package v4.0.0 requires laravel/framework ^9.0 -> found laravel/framework[v9.0.0-beta.1, ..., 9.x-dev] but it conflicts with your root composer.json require (^8.6).

You can also try re-running composer require with an explicit version constraint, e.g. "composer require ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package:*" to figure out if any version is installable, or "composer require ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package:^2.1" if you know which you need.

[bmlotek]

From information you have provided, I see that in your composer.json you have "laravel/framework: ^8.6 ". Package needs laravel 9.0 or higher. So it won't work, because your composer.json as it is won't allow you to upgrade your laravel to 9.0.

From composer documentation:

Caret Version Range (^)[

The ^ operator behaves very similarly, but it sticks closer to semantic versioning, and will always allow non-breaking updates. For example ^1.2.3 is equivalent to >=1.2.3 <2.0.0 as none of the releases until 2.0 should break backwards compatibility. For pre-1.0 versions it also acts with safety in mind and treats ^0.3 as >=0.3.0 <0.4.0 and ^0.0.3 as >=0.0.3 <0.0.4.

This is the recommended operator for maximum interoperability when writing library code.

Example: ^1.2.3

Let me know if that was helpful.

which version works with laravel 8?

[zaak]

@Djagannath: If you are looking for a package for Laravel < 9, please use version 3.

trying to install composer require ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package "3.5.3"

Problem 1
- league/flysystem-cached-adapter[1.0.6, ..., 1.1.0] require psr/cache ^1.0.0 -> found psr/cache[1.0.0, 1.0.1] but the package is fixed to 3.0.0 (lock file version) by a partial update and that version does not match. Make sure you list it as an argument for the update command.
- ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package v3.5.3 requires league/flysystem-cached-adapter ^1.0.6 -> satisfiable by league/flysystem-cached-adapter[1.0.6, ..., 1.1.0].
- Root composer.json requires ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package 3.5.3 -> satisfiable by ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package[v3.5.3].

Use the option --with-all-dependencies (-W) to allow upgrades, downgrades and removals for packages currently locked to specific versions.

@Djagannath make backup of files just in case ;) and now try to delete composer.lock (maybe also removal of vendor will be required) and then try install composer require ckfinder/ckfinder-laravel-package "3.5.3" and add -W or --with-all-dependencies to command. This should help.
