barryvdh/laravel-debugbar does not appear in laravel

Question

Please let me assert: This question is not a duplicate of this,

In Laravel 5 I am trying to install barryvdh/laravel-debugbar. but it is not showing.

I did the following:

Installation:

composer require barryvdh/laravel-debugbar

Added the following lines to the config/app.php in the providers section

'Barryvdh\Debugbar\ServiceProvider',

And in the facades list..

'Debugbar' => 'Barryvdh\Debugbar\Facade', Further I execute:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Barryvdh\Debugbar\ServiceProvider"

After that I tried everything in answers to a similar SO question I mentioned at the beginning of this question.

Like enabling debug in .env, enable it in the debugbar.php, clearing config cache with php artisan config:clear

and caching again with

php artisan config:cache

also .. php artisan view:clear;

But the debug bar won't appear?

What could be the reasons?

Check your `APP_ENV` if it is `local`. `Production` might be causing the issue. — Ru Chern Chong, Jun 26 '17 at 15:14
some time due to `autoload` files. Have you tried `sudo composer dumpautoload` ? — Sagar Gautam, Jun 26 '17 at 15:17
@SagarGautam, though I did a sudo composer dumpautoload, and it did not work, your suggestion was not very good.. It gave a warning not to run composer with root permissions.. — Ramesh Pareek, Jun 26 '17 at 15:21

maybe you ‍‍cache all routes in laravel. please clear route cache:

PHP artisan route:clear

please see the below link:

When route caching is enabled, the debugbar fails to render

If the dev environment of your laravel project is using the default configuration of Apache for web root directory, make sure the AllowOverride All is set for the web root directory.

<Directory "/var/www/html">
   ...
   AllowOverride All 
   ...
</Directory>

Restart web service and try reloading the page. The debug bar should be showing up properly.

In my situation, there was an issue with the creation permissions for the debugbar directory, which was resolved by creating and granting the appropriate permissions to this directory.

in your project directory run:

mkdir storage/debugbar
chmod -R 777 storage/debugbar

Set APP_DEBUG=true in .env file in the root folder of the Laravel application.

If you checked all instructions in the github repo and the debugbar is still not working, the problem may be in your NGINX/APACHE configuration.

In my case, nginx conf сontained the section:

location ~ \.php$ {
    fastcgi_pass php-fpm:9000;
    try_files $uri $uri/ index.php /index.php?$args $fastcgi_script_name =404;
    fastcgi_index index.php;
    include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
    include /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf;
}

You need to take out the try files directive to section:

location / {
    try_files $uri 
    $uri/ index.php /index.php?$args 
    $fastcgi_script_name = 404;
}

I found the debugbar stopped working when I ran following.

composer install --optimize-autoloader --no-dev

In this case, the Debugbar wont show even the APP_ENV is local or anything other than production. I believe only marking APP_ENV as local is enough to activate debugbar.

What I did here, by executing following.

composer install and php artisan route:cache

Make sure that app environment is set to local:

APP_ENV=local

Make sure that app debug is enabled:

APP_DEBUG=true

Make sure that debugbar is enabled:

DEBUGBAR_ENABLED=true

Make sure to run the following commands:

php artisan cache:clear
php artisan config:cache
php artisan debugbar:clear
