Script php artisan clear-compiled handling the post-update-cmd event returned with an error

How about deleting vendor/compiled.php manually?

It worked! Thank you very much!

You are welcome. The php artisan clear-compiled command had to be run before the framework was updated. That why it didn't work and you had to delete vendor/compiled.php manually.

I use a tiny update script to make sure I do not forget:

php artisan down
php artisan clear-compiled
composer update --no-dev
php artisan optimize
php artisan up

Edit: Make sure you run php artisan optimize after the update to rebuild compiled.php.

I got this too after running a composer update today. Where is compiled.php ?

I think there is something wierd with laravel 5.0.20, I reset my composer.json to 5.0.18 and ran a composer update and everything went through ok.

Laravel 5.0.20 is not weird. You app is class optimized for 5.0.18 and that causes an issue with 5.0.20.

Delete vendor/compiled.php and run composer update again. And php artisan optimize after the update to rebuild compiled.php

I was just having the same issue, I asked in the laravel IRC and simonerich suggested that i check my php version is not < 5.6, i was using 5.4 so i updated to 5.6 and now the issue is gone. Make sure you have the latest version of PHP :)

I have the same problem after today's composer update. I'm on Forge with the latest PHP 5.6.

I also tried to delete vendor/compiled.php and run php artisan optimize but I get the same message. Clearly this must be an issue with the latest version of laravel.

@wolfkain

Check to see if you have storage/framework/compiled.php and remove that.

Note. mine works perfectly fine on php 5.5

@mybigman

Deleting storage/framework/compiled.php fixed it!

Thanks!

thx am rename storage/framework/compiled.php fixed it!

@hebron I did as you indicated in the script and the update was successful but the vendor/compiled.php file was not created, any ideas?

@binalfew the vendor/compiled.php was also not created for me, I had to run php artisan optimize --force

@jeremyb Thanks, I added the --force flag and its working like a charm now.

thanks @hebron ! I following yours answer and all works perfect! , First Delete vendor/compiled.php and after run composer update.

I have the same issue. I have the Laravel 5.1.15 and I do not find any vendor/compiled.php neither storage/framework/compiled.php.

My Laravel vendor folder is empty. What's next, please?

@Dario

Do you get the error while running composer install?

I was getting the error only when I tried to replace the Illuminate Auth service provider with the LDAP service provider. Then I removed the change and it's working again. But I noticed that the vendor folder miss the laravel framework. So I tried to run composer update but nothing changed. I searched for composer.php in vendor and storage but there is no composer.php. Then, I tried to run composer require laravel/laravel or laravel/framework but I got the following error:

Problem 1 - The requested package laravel/laravel could not be found in any version, there may be a typo in the package name. Problem 2 - The requested package laravel/laravel could not be found in any version, there may be a typo in the package name.

Potential causes:

• A typo in the package name
• The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting

I ì'm using PSR-4 standards.

I just came up with the laravel installation. Deleted composer.lock and composer install did the job. Then, I'm still getting error with the Gate contract. **[Illuminate\Contracts\Container\BindingResolutionException]
Target [Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Access\Gate] is not instantiable. **

Ok, solved. If using the ldap package Ccovey\LdapAuth, you might not replace the Illuminate\Auth\AuthServiceProvider as stated in the documentation since that instantiates the Gate contract but just append the service provider to the app config file providers array at the end. That solved my issue. Hope it could help others using this package on L5.

illuminate/contracts (v5.1.22) had caused my problems. I removed it and all works like a charm again.

@wolfkain hey mate it seems that you already resolve the issue on installing laravel on VM. Same problem with. How do you resolve it? Thanks
