Script php artisan clear compiled handling the post-cmd-update event returned with an error (Laravel 5.0.16)

Is it to do with this? http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/upgrade#upgrade-5.0.16

Nope, that path is already in the file for some reason.

In some cases you have to also delete the storage/framework/compiled.php too to make it work

Oh, I forgot about that. I'll try it and see if it works.

@Ruffles did it work?

I started a new project to test something and I had the same problem. I ran the command manually and everything worked, but in my current project it fails and it returns the same error. I checked the storage/framework folder and it doesn't have any compiled.php file there.

@Ruffles - Did you by any chance ever figure out the problem with the 'current project' you mention above vis a vis installing laracasts/flash? I'm trying to install it right now myself and am also getting an error connected to the 'scripts' in composer.json:

Script php artisan clear-compiled handling the pre-update-cmd event returned with an error
                      
  [RuntimeException]  
  Error Output:       
                      

I fixed that issue a few times after that but I don't remember what was the problem. Delete the compiled.php file inside the vendor folder and do a php artisan clear-compiled. See if that works.

I can confirm that I was having the same error and I just cleared the /storage/framework/cache files and it worked just fine afterwards.

you can clear remove package form cache on path bootstrap/cache/config

I had same issue while I upgrade to 5.4. delete /bootsrap/cache/script.json and /bootstrap/cache/compiled.php

add BROADCAST_DRIVER=log in .env

run Composer update

hope it helps
