The output shows that your lock file is not up to date with your composer file. It's best practise to run composer update locally and commit the composer.lock file and run composer install on the live server.

Thanks for your prompt response. I did the same as mentioned by you. Now I am getting the following error.

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Problem 1
- Installation request for phpoffice/phpspreadsheet 1.14.1 -> satisfiable by phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[1.14.1].
- phpoffice/phpspreadsheet 1.14.1 requires ext-gd * -> the requested PHP extension gd is missing from your system.
Problem 2
- phpoffice/phpspreadsheet 1.14.1 requires ext-gd * -> the requested PHP extension gd is missing from your system.
- maatwebsite/excel 3.1.21 requires phpoffice/phpspreadsheet ^1.14 -> satisfiable by phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[1.14.1].
- Installation request for maatwebsite/excel 3.1.21 -> satisfiable by maatwebsite/excel[3.1.21].

To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
-
- /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-intl.ini
- /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-sodium.ini
- /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-xdebug.ini
- /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-zip.ini
You can also run php --ini inside terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode.

I checked and found gd extention is already enabled on the server, but still getting above error. Can you please help me on this?

It seems the PHP that runs composer install doesn't have gd enabled. I would recommend asking for help on Stackoverflow or Laracasts. It's a bit too specific (and maybe related to CircleCI) for this issue tracker.

As mentioned before, I suggest you post this question on Stackoverflow or Laracasts as it's related to CircleCI/PHP and PhpSpreadsheet, not specifically this package.

You can tray this in Laravel 8 to Install composer require maatwebsite/excel

: composer require maatwebsite/excel --ignore-platform-reqs
