If your webserver does not allow you to use PHP 8, please do not include that version in your own composer.json as an allowed version. If you do so, Composer might install packages that can not be used on your server, and this leads to the given error message.

Steps to resolve the problem:

• set the version constraint in your composer.json to ^7.3 (removing |^8.0)
• run composer update to recalculate the dependency tree
• deploy your application

You need to upgrade the PHP version to 8.0 on Hosting. But, I think above mentioned image shows, your hosting has only a 7.4 version (maximum).

So, If you have a maximum PHP 7.4 version then, downgrade your Laravel framework version to 7.x.

Laravel 7 is supported PHP >= 7.2.5
