log-viewer | Log viewer for laravel

Probably since IE (Internet Explorer) is now (since a while...) officially dead, and I finally am in a situation where I do want to take a look at the Failed Request Logs.

Search did help me find:

1. IIS failed request log viewer

But this question, and answer, are from 11 years ago, and the link to the external site is down.

1. FREB Viewer

But the download gives: {"error":{"code":"generalException","message":"General Exception While Processing"}}

So, my question is, how can I view the Failed Request Logs, about the same way as i used to do that in Internet Explorer, a couple of years ago?

I am trying to do that under Windows 11, but when viewing a file like "C:\inetpub\logs\FailedReqLogFiles\W3SVC1\fr004256.xml", I am only seeing an empty page in Edge.

EDIT: Another article about it not working, see:

Using php 7.2

I've been trying to install lorisleiva/laravel-search-string but I keep on getting this error. Need this library for the search functionality. Even composer update gives the same error. (just the problem 2 in case of update). I have added the composer.json down below as well. Hope this will okay. Need some guidance.

I'm trying to update from 5.8 to any version 6 Laravel. I've updated the PHP code, but the composer update is problematic for me. I've tried composer update, composer update --with-dependencies, composer install.

Composer isn't something I work with often. Any help is very appreciate! How do I decipher the composer error message to an actionable task? Is there a command that will install the dependencies for Laravel 6?

The error message after composer update:
