What session driver are you using? Where and how is the app being deployed (AWS, Forge, ...)?

Target class [session] does not exist
On deployment we also empty all caches, run php artisan optimize, reload PHP FPM with sudo /etc/init.d/php7.4-fpm restart. Still we got these errors recently.
[2021-05-21 10:47:25] staging.ERROR: Target class [session] does not exist. {"exception":"[object] (Illuminate\Contracts\Container\BindingResolutionException(code: 0): Target class [session] does not exist. at /home/forge/staging.site.com/releases/551/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Container/Container.php:835)
[stacktrace]

#1 /home/forge/staging.site.com/releases/551/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Application.php(841): Illuminate\Container\Container->resolve('session', Array, true)
any idea what the cause can be?

We are deploying with PHP Deployer. And for session use file:
forge@app-staging:~/staging.domain.com/shared$ cat .env |grep SESSION_DRIVER
SESSION_DRIVER=file

Found
cache:clear command will clear users' sessions if CACHE_DRIVER is the same as SESSION_DRIVER, I think users should call this task on demand instead of putting it in default deploy task. at https://github.com/deployphp/deployer/pull/1681
so perhaps we need to make session driver use Redis like our regular Cache too. Looking into this. Just odd we never had this issue before.

Does seem this happens on staging and not on production which use the same operating system (Ubuntu) and general setup done by Forge. So does feel there is something else going on. Still looking into the issue deeper and we will test with redis on staging and or production for sessions.

Still having this issue on staging from time to time. Remains odd. Any pointers are still welcome.

Using
....
shared_dirs:
- 'bootstrap/cache'
..
now to avoid the issue and keep cache in shared directory. Should solve the issue.
