Laravel Collective - Class 'Form' not found
Hey there,
when i found out that illuminate/html was removed from the core, i tried to install the new laravelcollective/html, what i did:
composer.json:
"require": {
"laravel/framework": "5.0.*",
"laravelcollective/html": "~5.0"
},
then i updated using:
composer update
in terminal. Next i edited my config/app.php in serviceproviders:
'Collective\Html\HtmlServiceProvider',
and aliases:
'Form' => 'Collective\Html\FormFacade',
'Html' => 'Collective\Html\HtmlFacade',
But i still get this Error:
Class 'Form' not found
When using this in my view:
{!! Form::open(array('url' => 'foo/bar')) !!}
//
{!! Form::close() !!}
Anybody could help me with this issue?
Greetings and thanks!!
Level 1

i tried this, but there is still no Class 'Form' found.
I really dont know how to process this :(
Any suggestions?

That should have sorted it. Try clearing your cache too.

First of all i updated, next i inserted in serviceproviders and aliases, than i cleared application cache. Still getting:
Class 'Form' not found
Should i do new laravel install? greetings!
Level 65
Should the provider be at the end? Can't remember if it matters.
Level 55
Mine is at the end, so try that.
Level 1
found solution.
i had to clear the route cache too.
php artisan route:clear
php artisan cache:clear
worked.
Thanks!
Level 55
Did you have route caching on?
Level 65
Why would route caching fix this? Sure you didn't just have cached files on a VM?
Level 55
@bashy I don't know, that's why I asked previously did they clear their browser and other caches. Apparently it didn't help.

Hey,
I'm currently experiencing the same issue.. It keeps telling me the 'Class 'Form' not found'.
Tried everything in this topic, and about 10~15 other topics. This seemed most recent and about 5.1, anyone else got an idea?
What I've tried so far: Obviously modified the composter.json file, and config/app.php as described in this topic and the Collective docs: http://laravelcollective.com/docs/5.1/html
What I've tried:
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan route:clear
composer dump-autoload -o
composer update (also removed and re-installed 'vendor' folder
Cleared cache by removeing all store/framework/*/* files
I've got no other ideas of what it could be.. (New to Laravel, first post here, Hi! :-)
Level 1
Update: I've been able to fix it.
As none of the things above worked and it should've just been simply the class/file that couldn't been found I decided to require the required files myself to see if that had any effect. Tried doing that int he config/app.php but nothing worked there, actually the code was never executed (cached too somewhere).
Found some commands online that I executed and finally the page gave me some errors (as the require was invalid as intended) and that eventually worked.
php artisan optimize
php artisan config:cache (probably this one that did his magic)
php artisan route:cache

Thanks @JeroenSormani, your solution worked.
I tried running the commands @gelther used in my Laravel 5.2 project and for each one, I got this error:
[Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalErrorException]
Call to undefined method Illuminate\Foundation\Application::bindShared
()
What could be causing this?
Level 1
I can't get it to work either and I have tried all the "solutions" above. Does anyone know how to resolve this?? I am using Laravel 5.3

@revgov try get it from the global space.
App\Providers\FormServiceProvider.php:
// ...
public function boot()
{
\Form::component(
'bsText', 'partials.form.text', ['name', 'value', 'attributes']
);
}

Gelther solution worked for me too which is "php artisan config:cache"

I had a similar issue where my view was caching the Form collective alias not being available. I suspect it was due to the fact that I added it into config/app before composer was done installing it. Using php artisan config:cache was the solution for me.

@u2rajendra welcome to this 9 year old thread
Nobody should be still using LaravelCollective html as it has been unsupported for many, many years.
