Laravel 5.2 - bootstrap/cache/services.php missing

Question

After I ran composer update/ install then when I run php artisan cache:clear. I got the following error.

[ErrorException] file_put_contents({application-root-path}/bootstrap/cache/services.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

Is there any command able to re-cache the file? As for now no matter what php artisan function that I run also will caught into the same error.

p/s: Please comment below if you need me to provide any further information for debug use.

php artisan command run your application in CLI. When application run in CLI that time we can't use some server variable and many more. So that is causing that error. Please check your code and see where you use `file_put_contents()` function in application. — sunny kashyap, Jul 05 '16 at 16:59

make sure to run this command:

sudo chmod 777 -R bootstrap/cache

Alright, thanks ! If directory isn't found, create it by doing `mkdir bootstrap/cache`. – Zachary Dahan Jul 17 '16 at 15:27

Don't set 777 on that folder, instead set the right group and only allow write access to that group. See this answer: http://stackoverflow.com/a/37266353/987864 – Daan Oct 13 '16 at 08:25
Valid response for 5.4. I recently got caught on this after upgrading from 5.3. – jhmilan Jan 31 '17 at 22:43

Just type:

cd bootstrap/
mkdir cache
cd .. 
composer install

For security, the official recommendation is that composer never be run as root or sudo. Detailed reasoning is provided here: https://getcomposer.org/root – aaronfarr Jul 04 '17 at 14:47

run this command

php artisan optimize --force

it will create services.php and compiled.php

As of Laravel 5.5, PHP artisan optimize is no longer required. – Mohamed Naser Dec 20 '21 at 10:41

I solved this problem this way: If there is a cache directory, delete it and recreate it
