I am build a Laravel e-commerce site and I seem to be having difficulty with the login page. When I run /auth/login I get the following error message:
ErrorException in 331b09d5d399f256b356d4ae58180ae01edf5c37.php line 12: Undefined variable: errors (View: /home/thomas/ushop/resources/views/auth/login.blade.php)

This puzzles me because I'm using the user system that comes with Laravel right out of the box. Is it possible it's because no form errors were created yet?
EDIT here's my code:
@extends('vendor.app')
@section('content')
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-8 col-md-offset-2">
<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-heading">Login</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<form class="form-horizontal" role="form" method="POST" action="{{ url('/login') }}">
{!! csrf_field() !!}
<div class="form-group{{ $errors->has('email') ? ' has-error' : '' }}">
<label class="col-md-4 control-label">E-Mail Address</label>
<div class="col-md-6">
<input type="email" class="form-control" name="email" value="{{ old('email') }}">
@if ($errors->has('email'))
<span class="help-block">
<strong>{{ $errors->first('email') }}</strong>
</span>
@endif
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group{{ $errors->has('password') ? ' has-error' : '' }}">
<label class="col-md-4 control-label">Password</label>
<div class="col-md-6">
<input type="password" class="form-control" name="password">
@if ($errors->has('password'))
<span class="help-block">
<strong>{{ $errors->first('password') }}</strong>
</span>
@endif
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-6 col-md-offset-4">
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox" name="remember"> Remember Me
</label>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-6 col-md-offset-4">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">
<i class="fa fa-btn fa-sign-in"></i>Login
</button>
<a class="btn btn-link" href="{{ url('/password/reset') }}">Forgot Your Password?</a>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

EDIT2: My controller code, though this came straight out of the box with Laravel since it shipped by default
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
use App\User;
use Validator;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\ThrottlesLogins;

class AuthController extends Controller
{
/*

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| This controller handles the registration of new users, as well as the
| authentication of existing users. By default, this controller uses
| a simple trait to add these behaviors. Why don't you explore it?

*/
use AuthenticatesAndRegistersUsers, ThrottlesLogins;
/**
* Where to redirect users after login / registration.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $redirectTo = '/';
/**
* Create a new authentication controller instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware($this->guestMiddleware(), ['except' => 'logout']);
}
/**

*/
protected function validator(array $data)
{
return Validator::make($data, [
'name' => 'required|max:255',
