Can you be any chance see the full path here?
handleError(2, 'strpos() expect...', '/Users/bayo/Amp...', 598, Array) #1
Or is any of your own files listed in the error. I assume you have an error in your code but without seeing the code it is hard to fix
@sinnbeck you have the eyes of an eagle. :P
Did you add some of your own code into the service providers? Check them first.
Hello, Thank you.
The path/Directory is showing and referencing the application.php file and the line 598
The error is on line - return strpos($provider, 'Illuminate\') === 0;
public function registerConfiguredProviders() { $providers = Collection::make($this->config['app.providers']) ->partition(function ($provider) { return strpos($provider, 'Illuminate\') === 0; });
Kindly Assist
Seems that you have registered a service provider that isnt a string?
Please show the content of your config/app.php file
Add ``` on the line before the code to format it properly
Thank you for your help and guide in resolving the missed steps, resolved. I reconfigured the config/app.php with default file.
