The error you're seeing:

Failed to execute git clone --mirror -- 'https://ghp...Gc2:[email protected]/Laravel-Backpack/PRO.git' ...
remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/PRO.git/' not found

happens because you do not have access to the Backpack PRO source code on GitHub. Backpack PRO and other paid Backpack packages are distributed via Backpack's private Composer repository, not GitHub. When Composer tries to fetch from GitHub, it fails because you don't have the necessary permissions.

How to fix:

1. Ensure your composer.json includes the Backpack repository:

   "repositories": [
       {
           "type": "composer",
           "url": "https://repo.backpackforlaravel.com/"
       }
   ]

2. Set up authentication for the Backpack repository:

   Run this command (replace with your actual Backpack username and token):

   composer config http-basic.backpackforlaravel.com [your-token-username] [your-token-password]
   

3. Require the package using prefer-dist (not prefer-source):

   Make sure you are not using --prefer-source anywhere, as you do not have access to the source. Use:

   composer require backpack/pro
   

   or specify the exact version you have access to, for example:

   composer require backpack/pro:"1.2.7"
   

   You can find the latest version you have access to in your Backpack Tokens page under the "Packages" tab. If your license has expired, you can only install versions released before your license expired. A 402 error means you are trying to install a version you don't have access to; in that case, lock to the last available version for your license Installation problem. Trying to fetch pro package from git not from backpackforlaravel repository, Can'r accces repo.

4. Clear Composer cache if needed:

   composer clear-cache
   

Summary:
You must install Backpack PRO from Backpack's private Composer repository, not GitHub. Double-check your composer.json, authentication, and the version you are trying to install. If you follow these steps and still have issues, check for error messages about your license or token, and ensure your license is still valid.
