I have recently installed Laravel 5 via composer. I tried creating a new controller using artisan and I get the following error:
bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php. Failed to open stream: No such file or directory. The "vendor" folder does not exist.
Am I missing something?
Run composer with --no-scripts
composer update --no-scripts This shall fix the issue. I tried this on Mac and Linux.
Which OS you are using ? For Windows : Go to Command Prompt
set path to www/{ur project}
For me : www/laravel5
Then type this command : composer install
It will automatically install all dependency in vendor/
Run composer install in your root project folder (or php composer.phar install).
Turns out I didn't enable openssl in my php.ini so when I created my new project with composer it was installed from source. I changed that and ran
composer update now the vendor folder was created.
Did you create a new project or did you clone an existing project?
If you cloned an existing project it's very important to run
composer install That way all the dependencies that are missing will be installed.
But if you create a new project you should run this command to make a new project using composer
composer create-project laravel/laravel name-of-your-project Just run this inside the directory where you installed your project
composer install I encountered the same problem. It occurred because composer was not able to install the dependencies specified in composer.json file. try running
composer install If this does not solve the problem, make sure the following php modules are installed php-mbstring php-dom
To install this extensions run the following in terminal
sudo apt-get install php-mbstring php-dom once the installation is complete
try running the command in your project root folder
composer install Following this below step solved my problem. You may try
composer update --no-scripts composer update After checking php version and a lot of research , the problem was on Composer side so just run the following command
composer install --ignore-platform-reqs
When the new project created the laravel require to load vendors to autoload the libraries , We use composer update to
composer update Composer is a dependency manager allows you to delegate responsibility for managing your dependencies to a third party.
Just setup a new project using composer instead of laravel like this:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel myProje Just run the following commands,
composer update Or
composer install You need to regenerate autoload.php file. you can use dump-autoload to do that without having to go through an install or update.
use
composer dump-autoload to generate autoload.php file again in /vendor directory.
go to your project folder via cmd. run the following command
composer update it will install missing vendor folder and files in your project.
but in some cases it gives error like " Your configuration does not allow connection to bla bla bla.." in cmd.
for that go to your composer.json file,
change "secure-http": true to "secure-http": false
but in some cases (as was in my case) you may not find such line in your file. for that do the following action:
change "config": { "preferred-install": "dist" }
to
"config": { "preferred-install": "dist", "secure-http": false } and run again composer update command.
hope this will solve problem of many persons. :)
Before you carry out the following instructions you need to make sure you have composer installed globally on your machine; Open you Mac terminal and run the following command:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | sudo php -- --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer once composer is installed globally run the following command after you are in the directory of the project:
composer install once completed in it update and install all the required packages.
I also had that error. But none of the above solved the issue. So i uninstalled and again installed the composer. Then i did composer update. and the problem was fixed.
I added composer.lock file to .gitignore, after commit that file to repository error is gone :)
I had same problem with laravel and artisan, the solution:
php artisan key:generate I got this when I did composer update instead of composer install.
In my case I had to enable another extension, namely php_mbstring.dll in the php.ini file before it could work. It's listed under extension=php_mbstring.dll. Find it in the php.ini file and remove the semi-colon (;) in front of it and save the file.
After this run install composer again in the root directory of your Laravel applcication and is should work.
If you are a Windows user you may uninstall Composer. Then install Composer. After that you install Laravel. Maybe it will work.
