Error upgrading from 2.4.5-p1 to 2.4.6

[infoposter8bf1]

Trying to upgrade to the latest version of magento but when I run composer update I get an error saying that

magento framework 103.0.0 requires php 7.3 or 7.4 and

magento payment services 1.5.0 requires magento module service proxy 1.5.*

magento payment services 1.6.0 requires magento module service proxy 1.6.*

magento module service proxy 1.5.0 requires magento framework >=103.0.0

magento module service proxy 1.6.1 requires magento framework >=103.0.0

You can only install one version of the package magento framework 100.0.2 through to 103.0.6

Root composer.json requires magento product community edition 2.4.6

Root composer.json requires magento payment services ^1.5

Payment services is already on v1.6.1 & php set to 8.1.17

I would really love to post the actual error & the contents of the composer.json but then I get told that access is denied to my post and to login which I already am.

Any ideas please?

If you're getting errors upgrading from Magento 2.4.5‑p1 to 2.4.6, it's likely due to PHP version or composer dependencies not matching.

Make sure you're using the correct PHP version (Magento 2.4.6 supports PHP 8.1), then update your composer.json to require Magento 2.4.6. After that, run:

python
composer update --with-all-dependencies

That usually solves most upgrade issues. Also, try it on a test setup first before applying it to your live site. If you're testing in different environments or using geo-specific services, the best mobile proxies can help simulate various conditions more reliably.
