failed to open stream: No such file or directory (Laravel)

Question

I renamed my UsersController.php file to ~UsersController.php for testing purposes and everything was working fine until I renamed it back to UsersController.php and now I'm getting the below error

include(C:\xampp\htdocs\xxx\vendor\composer/../../app/Http/Controllers/~UsersController.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

i'm getting the above error when I want submit form to UsersController while I didn't change anything in my route file or views.

Answer 1

Try php artisan config:cache && php artisan config:clear && composer dump-autoload -o

Answer 2

In my case, the problem was with the autoloader loading old deleted files so I just used " composer dump-autoload -o " and it worked

Answer 3

In my case, the problem was from the internal repository it reads the old path so,
the solution is to use composer update to read the new repository path.
