Laravel vendor/autoload is missing

Question

I'm a beginner in laravel, so when I start creating my project using composer create-project laravel/laravel my-project-name 5.4.*

then i run it on my browser http://localhost:8080/test/public/ and it shows me this error:

Warning: require(C:\xampp\htdocs\test\public/../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\test\public\index.php on line 24

and

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'C:\xampp\htdocs\test\public/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='C:\xampp\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp\htdocs\test\public\index.php on line 24

I've tried using composer install, update etc.. but nothing seems to happen.

@JoselParayno `require __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/autoload.php';` please check if this line is in your `index.php`? — Andriy Lozynskiy, Sep 05 '17 at 06:58
@noufalcep i've tried enabling openssl before i create the project, but it still doesn't work. — Josel Parayno, Sep 05 '17 at 07:08
This is probably an authorization problem, change your folder or user permissions and try to install laravel again. — Onix, Sep 05 '17 at 07:33
@AnarBayramov composer dump-autoload gives me error like this. Class Illuminate\Foundation\ComposerScripts is not autoloadable, can not call post-autoload-dump script > php artisan package:discover — Josel Parayno, Sep 05 '17 at 09:36

You'll solve your problem with running in the terminal inside your project

composer update

Did you do this after cd-ing to the project? Also, when you say it didn't do anything, do you mean the function didn't run? – parker_codes Sep 05 '17 at 17:24
This is the output after i run composer update: Loading composer repositories with package information Updating dependencies (including require-dev) Package operations: 61 installs, 0 updates, 0 removals - Installing symfony/http-foundation (v3.3.8): Downloading (100%) – Josel Parayno Sep 06 '17 at 05:53
@GoogleMac yes i did cd-ed on my root project. – Josel Parayno Sep 06 '17 at 07:59
Your index.php page should require the autoload file. Not sure why this isn't already set up on a fresh project. The folder appears to be there, it just isn't being pulled in. – parker_codes Sep 06 '17 at 12:36

Try using 'composer diagnose'.
