Laravel 9 and PHP 8.1.7 : Uncaught Reflection Exception: Class "config" does not exist Container.php:875

Question

I deployed Laravel 9 on localhost and everything was good. When I deployed on cpanel shared hosting, I am getting this error. Your assistance will be appreciated.

Here are some of the steps I have taken on the localhost but no difference on the shared hosting:

I have cleared the bootstrap contents
composer dump-autoload

Have you tried searching the internet? First result: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/class-config-does-not-exist-in — John Zwarthoed, Jul 01 '22 at 12:27
You could add angle bracket(s) in front of your _"Fatal Error"_ output if you want to improve readability — Stefan Wuebbe, Jul 03 '22 at 17:05
Thanks, @JohnZwarthoed, I have searched the internet and almost all the results are for a different Laravel version. I have implemented various suggestions but the error remains the same. — Stephen Olateru, Jul 04 '22 at 04:31
@StephenOlateru did you solve this issue? I have the exact same problem and don't know how to solve it. — Yu_Jain, Aug 14 '22 at 10:43
@StephenOlateru I solved this by installing missing php extensions in the server — Yu_Jain, Sep 16 '22 at 11:21
Thanks @Yu_Jain, do you mind sharing the missing extensions? — Stephen Olateru, Oct 05 '22 at 09:02
@StephenOlateru for me the missing extensions where : `BCMath`, `Fileinfo`, `Mbstring` , you can check [my post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73350551/class-config-does-not-exist-laravel-9/73744001#73744001) to read more about it. — Yu_Jain, Oct 10 '22 at 16:53
