Hi guys, I have been carrying this error for several months, which is not a problem but I want to solve it:
In Route.php line 917:
Unable to prepare route [api/user] for serialization. Uses Closure.
I read that you have to comment on the code in route / api.php
Route::middleware('auth:api')->get('/user', function (Request $request) {
return $request->user();
});
after giving the command php artisan route:cache
But now I get the error:
In Route.php line 917:
Unable to prepare route [{fallbackPlaceholder}] for serialization. Uses Closure.
You can't cache routes if you are using a closure. The closure is this part:
function (Request $request) {
return $request->user();
}
Instead, if you move the code into a controller you'll be able to cache the routes and eliminate the error.
I am not using any closure but it throw closure exception
Unable to prepare route [api/user] for serialization. Uses Closure.
@hadayat Make sure to check all your routes in your project. This error means that a route is making use of a closure.
Take a look at the output of php artisan route:list and check if there is any Closure in that list.
My Route File
Route::get('/send', 'MailController@index');
Route::get('/sendmail', 'MailController@sendMail');
@hadayat did you ran php artisan route:list ? This wil show you all routes and then you can determine if there is any closure in that route. Can you submit the output of that command?
Check your routes/api.php there's a default route that laravel adds as an example for you which uses a closure. Please remove or comment that route and test again.
Route::middleware('auth:api')->get('/user', function (Request $request) {
return $request->user();
});
@zylwin You are right. I disabled in Api.php and it works for me. Thank you very much dear.
@zylwin you solved my problem too - thanks!
@zylwin It worked, but now I am getting another error Unable to prepare route [js/lang.js] for serialization. Uses Closure. I am running thee command "php artisan optimize"
@hadayat @zylwin After a force restart of my laptop my laravel application stopped responded, I tried to make all changes suggested by you guys but still I am getting the same thing.
