I am running php 7.1 and the latest release of flarum. By any chance anybody has experienced this before? Thanks for helping!

Here is my /etc/nginx/sites-available/default

Does your vendor/ folder exist? And does vendor/flarum/core exist? Are you able to run php flarum info?

lucashxu

@luceos Thanks for your reply.

vendor/ folder exists. But not vendor/flarum/ (so vendor/flarum/core doesn't either)

When I run php flarum info, I have:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Class 'Flarum\Console\Server' not found in /var/www/flarum/flarum:16
Stack trace:
#0 {main}
  thrown in /var/www/flarum/flarum on line 16

Not sure what's wrong. Any hint would be much appreciated!

lucashxu Try

composer install

composer update

luceos

Frink let me explain a thing or two because you are doing a great job at giving support here ?

Never suggest using composer update, install will suffice for all situations as a normal user, because:

Install will use the lock file when it exists, thus installing the dependencies we want to ship Flarum with.
Install using the json file as a fallback when the lock file does not exist. This is comparable to using update.

The full command to install for normal users is:

composer install --prefer-dist --no-dev --no-suggest -o

Because:

--no-dev will ignore downloading files necessary for development (eg test files)
--prefer-dist will prefer using a tarball for download, which excludes readme's and other stuff we won't use anyway.
-o will create an optimized autoloader file, instead of resolving psr namespace on every request, it will cache all found files into a cache file. This makes Flarum a bit faster.
--no-suggest will not suggest any additional packages, these aren't used by Flarum anyway.

Hope this helps :superman:

luceos Thanks @luceos I just do what I can to help out! #BestDevTeamEver ?

lucashxu

Thanks so much guys! It worked. So basically, I didn't install all dependencies that Flarum needs via composer If I understand it correctly. ?
