Can someone help me solve this error ...
The laravel-tasks project is four years old. That project requires Laravel 5.4 and PHP 5.6. Both are old. The current mainstream PHP version is 7.4. Laravel is version 8.
The azure command is specifying PHP 7.2 which is not supported by the project.
You will need to download the project to your local system, patch and update, and then deploy with the patched version. The error that you have is caused by incompatibilities with composer. You will need to run composer update which will fail.
Unless you are experienced with Laravel and PHP pick a different project to learn from.
