Laravel say that Auth guard [] is not defined

Question

I'm beginer and I start learn and code with laravel... To enable user login nad registration I write this (as I see on one tutorilal):

at routes.php

 Route::controllers([
     'auth'=>'Auth\AuthController',
     'password'=>'Auth\PasswordController', ]);

and now when I type: http://localhost:8888/auth/login I get error:

InvalidArgumentException in AuthManager.php line 71: Auth guard [] is not defined.

Also in view folder there is no auth directory and login.blade.php files and other.

Answer 1

In case you edited your config/auth.php, e.g. to add another guard and your config is cached, your guards may not be reloaded. If you experience this problem, clearing the config will fix it.

$php artisan config:clear or $php artisan config:cache

I'm using laravel 5.5

Answer 2

Make sure that your config/auth.php is updated if you've upgraded from 5.1.x to 5.2.
