I am facing a problem of error 500 in my laravel production website.

My application used to work well before a composer update command I ran from ssh to ubuntu server. I used to use forge for deployment and after deploying via ssh I faced this issue.

when I check nginx error logs I get this error:

2021/03/31 09:40:54 [error] 29517#29517: *1 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught ReflectionException: Class view does not exist in /home/forge/my_site/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Container/Container.php:833

in some of my searches I found maybe the issu is from app.php, so this is my config/app.php file :

I am using

  • Laravel 8
  • PHP 7.4.16 (cli)
  • Ubuntu 16.04.1

The application works well in local environment and worked before the composer update from ssh.

.env file also exists and details are set.

I have done these steps but none of them helped solving the issue:

  1. changing permissions of folders from ssh going te way of this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/37266353/4985607
  2. running these command :
    php artisan view:clear
    php artisan cache:clear
    php artisan config:clear
    php artisan config:cache
    composer uodate
    composer dump-autoload
    php artisan optimize
  1. deleting vendor folder and run composer install
  2. deleting bootstrap/cache inside files and rerun composer update

can any one help me solving this problem please?

    Please share more details. Running `composer update` on a production system is always a bad idea – Nico Haase Mar 31 '21 at 11:37
  • @NicoHaase Thanks for reply. what other details should I add? yea I wanted to deploy on ssh and not the forge. now what should I do? any idea? – atieh mokhtary Mar 31 '21 at 11:40

    Are you sure you have run composer install on server? Check if that View Class exist on given namespace. – Rudra Mar 31 '21 at 11:41

    Why not restore the application to the latest working configuration (from your version control system), run the update again (on your local system) and check whatever has changed? – Nico Haase Mar 31 '21 at 11:41
  • @Rudra yes I did composer install via ssh to my server. and also composer update – atieh mokhtary Mar 31 '21 at 11:43
  • @NicoHaase how should I do composer update from local and not from server while my vendor folder should be in .gitignore? does the changes take place after pulling? – atieh mokhtary Mar 31 '21 at 11:48

    Can you revert back composer.json which was there before you run composer update? and rerun composer install ? – Rudra Mar 31 '21 at 11:51
  • 3
    What was the output of the composer install and composer update commands? Any errors or warnings? – James Clark Mar 31 '21 at 11:51
  • @JamesClarkDeveloper no error but this warning only: Do not run Composer as root/super user! See https://getcomposer.org/root for details – atieh mokhtary Mar 31 '21 at 11:55
  • I don't get the question. Simply run `composer update` on your local system - that's how you run an update, that's how you already did it. "does the changes take place after pulling" - yeah, of course. You should have `composer.lock` under version control and run `composer install` on your production system (or even better: before deploying your code to the production system, such that you don't have to install Composer there) – Nico Haase Mar 31 '21 at 12:02
  • If it is working on your local machine.you can try to delete composer.json, composer.lock and vendor from server, copy your local composer.json to server and run composer install. – Rudra Mar 31 '21 at 12:03
  • @NicoHaase okay so I restore my application to previous version then from local running composer update then after pulling the changes to production I have to run composer install from production. is it this? I'll try this. – atieh mokhtary Mar 31 '21 at 12:06

    @Rudra no, one should **never** run `composer install` on a production system where `composer.lock` is missing – Nico Haase Mar 31 '21 at 12:20
  • @NicoHaase I did composer update in local area and then I pushed composer.lock to the git and pulled it. in production I did run composer install, but again the problem exists. only after installing packages I get lots of suggestions like this: symfony/routing suggests installing doctrine/annotations (For using the annotation loader) symfony/routing suggests installing symfony/config (For using the all-in-one router or any loader) symfony/routing suggests installing symfony/expression-language (For using expression matching) what should I do now? – atieh mokhtary Mar 31 '21 at 12:45
  • I can't tell you - these suggestions have not been part of your initial question. Also, these are **suggestions** and there's nothing bad in ignoring them – Nico Haase Mar 31 '21 at 13:08
  • @NicoHaase I mean about the problem which still exists in my application. error 500 still exists in my project. what to do about it – atieh mokhtary Mar 31 '21 at 13:23

I've got the same error, I found that I mistakenly changed APP_LOG from errorlog to debug APP_LOG=errorlog To APP_LOG=debug (I was trying to do something not related to this issue)

Once I changed it back to errorlog, and ran php artisan config:cache, it worked again.
