problem with laravel when run composer install

Question

i have a laravel project on my github. and i recently cloned to my pc but for some reason i got this error:

Generating optimized autoload files

Illuminate\Foundation\ComposerScripts::postAutoloadDump @php artisan package:discover

In Compiler.php line 36:

Please provide a valid cache path.


Script @php artisan package:discover handling the post-autoload-dump event 
returned with error code 1

I created cache, sessions and framework folder inside storage folder but it does not work.

I also tried many things I read on forums and here on stack but nothing works with me.

i really don't know what's happening.

Do you have the "vendor" folder? Usually when you get a laravel project from online repositories the "vendor" folder is in .gitignore. You have to install it when you get it locally by "composer update" or "composer install" — Antonio Gocaj

i tried run this command but the system cant find composer.json. in laravel project folder there is a composer.json. but in composer folder there's not. should i create one? — adahox_

The exception was thrown in Compiler.php line 36 because $cachePath is false. You can try trace back the error with debug_backtrace(), see what you can find. — davidloper

At first run: composer update

Create these folders under storage/framework:

sessions
views
cache

and run this below commands:

php artisan cache:clear
php artisan config:clear
php artisan view:clear
