Errors on installation on php8

[Vasiliy-Makogon]

Hi. Local web serwer (OpenServer_5_3_8) on Win 8.1, PHP8, all extensions intalled (Ctype, iconv, JSON, PCRE, Session, SimpleXML,Tokenizer, sqlite)

An attempt to run the command "symfony new . --demo" fails:

And other errors from web path:

Why?

IIRC, symfony new --demo uses the released version of the demo. Proper support for PHP 8 was added after the last release and is only in the dev version for now.

do I understand correctly that I cannot install a demo on PHP 8 until this pull request is not approved?

well, what doing this commit? - [Allow PHP 8 to run the project] (https://github.com/symfony/demo/commit/782b08d3ee6360a75422a87a7f80560843757699)

At moment symfony new --demo and composer create-project symfony/symfony-demo pick an older version that doesn't work on PHP 8. The PR #1194 plus a new release should fix that.

For now you can try the following to install the demo

git clone https://github.com/symfony/demo.git demo
cd demo
composer install

and to start the demo

symfony serve -d
symfony open:local
