php artisan commands stop working after composer update in laravel 5.1

Question

I was adding the html Collective class by updating composer.json with

"require": {
"laravelcollective/html": "5.1.*"
}

then I run composer update command as per the instructions from https://laravelcollective.com/docs/5.1/html first it throws a

Fetal error: Class 'Illuminate\Foundation\Application' not found in C:\wamp\www\laravel3\laravel\bootstrap\app.php on line 14

and some errors about artisan and now artisan commands are not working, even I have tried new installation of laravel.

did you try running php artisan dump-autoload after the update? — Vishal Sharma

Did you see any errors during composer update? You can also try php artisan clear-compiled and then php artisan dump-autoload — Vishal Sharma

yes it happens only after doing composer update, on composer update it gives the Fetal error the one I show above in my question. — mohsin

In order to use form and html in blade template I was trying to install Collective class using the instructions of https://laravelcollective.com/docs/5.1/html site, as per instructions I put "require": { "laravelcollective/html": "5.1.*" } into composer.json and then I ran composer update in command line which didn't update my composer, instead php artisan commands stop working and I receive different errors and exceptions, to solve those issues I struggle with commands such as composer update --no-scripts, php artisan clear-compiled, composer dump-autoload etc. which didn't solve the issue at all. Then I just type following command in command line: composer require "laravelcollective/html": "5.1.*", it update composer.json file automatically, after this process I just add providers and aliases into config/app.php, and now every thing works normal.

Okay, I suspect that the composer is not updated properly. Try doing composer update now with composer update --no-scripts followed by,

php artisan clear-compiled 
composer dump-autoload

followed by means I should type all in one time composer update --no-scripts php artisan clear-compiled composer dump-autoload

Vishal Sharma Over a year ago

no, run them serially and individually in the order I've written.

I am very confused because yesterday I tried composer update --no-scripts, it updated composer very well but still the php artisan commands was not working

Vishal Sharma Over a year ago

strange! you can also try deleting composer.lock file and then run composer install. But for me the composer update --no-scripts has solved the problem

ok I am trying that it will take may be 5 minutes, are you still with me?

Try composer installation again then update.

composer install
composer update
composer dumpautoload -o

This happens when an update is not completed successfully.
