My colleague and I have a PHP 8 application that refuses to start on our local machines, and every sign points to server-configuration issues rather than coding errors. We already experimented with XAMPP and even tweaked a few default settings, but the project still won’t load. I’ll send you the full source so you can spin it up in your own XAMPP environment (PHP 8). What I need is straightforward: • Deploy the project exactly as delivered. • Confirm whether it runs without errors on your end. • If it does, pinpoint the configuration differences that make it work—for instance, anything we changed in php.ini or httpd.conf that might be tripping us up. • Provide the concise steps or setting values we should replicate locally. Once you help us get the project running, I’m open to discussing an ongoing collaboration for future PHP work.
