In session.php line 127: Class 'Str' not found

Question

I'm trying to upgrade a Laravel project. I downloaded online to version 8 but on getting to version 6 I keep getting:

In session.php line 127: Class 'Str' not found

in my command line. What am I doing wrong please.

This is line 127

Str::slug(env('APP_NAME', 'laravel'), '_').'_session'

Did you `use Illuminate\Support\Str;`? – brombeer Nov 17 '20 at 14:15 — brombeer, Nov 17 '20 at 14:15

I think you need to add

use Illuminate\Support\Str;

to the top of your session.php configuration file.

In version 5.0 this was never a thing and was introduced in Laravel 6.

This error appears because laravel not able to find the namespace of Str try this.

on top of your file write this line use Illuminate\Support\Str or simply \Str
