Exception Folder is not being copied using Composer

[vistiyos]

• Laravel Version: 5.5.14
• PHP Version: 7.1.10
• Database Driver & Version:

Description:

I'm working on a project using Laravel 5.5.14 and I'm having a weird issue with Symfony HttpKernel component. Composer does not download or extract the Exception folder of the library so anytime that the application tries to thrown an Exception I get "Class 'Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Exception\XYZException' not found".

I've tried different things:

• Remove cache from composer and install the dependencies again
• Remove lock file and install the dependencies again

None of the above solutions worked. I'm kind of desperate because I don't have a clue about this. Any light on this will be highly appreciate.

Steps To Reproduce:

This is how my composer.json looks like:

        }
    }
}

I'm also using Homestead Vagrant Box 3.1.0

Why are you asking us and not the Symfony project? What makes you think this is a Laravel issue? Also, there is no Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Exception\XYZException in https://github.com/symfony/http-kernel/tree/3.3/Exception

[Dylan-DPC-zz]

The error could be caused by some package this is using. This isn't a laravel bug and can be closed.

@vistiyos : I had the same problem and i found the reason. I'm using mac with vagrant and nfs shared folders. Since High Sierra nfs support with vagrant is buggy and the filesystem inside vagrant shows files and folders twice or "eat them up". Thats why the Exception folder is missing.

https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/issues/8788

I could solve it by using this mount options for nfs synced folders:

mount_options: ['nolock', 'vers=3', 'tcp', 'fsc', 'actimeo=1', 'rw']

[vistiyos]

@MrMatsumoto thank you! Where should I put the mount_options section?

[MrMatsumoto]

@vistiyos : The synced folders are defined in your Vagrantfile. There you can adjust the mount options.

e.g.

config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", type: "nfs", mount_options: ['nolock', 'vers=3', 'tcp', 'fsc', 'actimeo=1', 'rw']

I had the same issue, for some reasons, the whole Exception folder is not installed under http-kernel.

@sisve why people cannot ask opinions here? Does Laravel 5.5 use Symfony http-kernel 3.3 package? BTW, 'XYZException' means 'HttpException', 'NotFoundHttpException' etc... it doesn't mean 'XYZException' Class!!!

@MrMatsumoto Thanks, you saved my day, it works perfectly. For anyone has the same issue and use homestead, add the mount_options to Homestead.yaml and reload the homestead.

[nomadme]

I can confirm this issue on Laravel Framework 5.4.36

@MrMatsumoto Confirmed fixing the missing Exception folder.

[seanmangar]

Had the same issue, fixing it by not using nfs anymore

[martinbean]

Having this same issue, but pretty sure I experienced it before upgrading to High Sierra, too.

Can someone explain what each of these mount options do?

['nolock', 'vers=3', 'tcp', 'fsc', 'actimeo=1', 'rw']

[Dylan-DPC-zz]

I would suggest if you need any help on this to try the forums or the slack channel.

[martinbean]

@Dylan-DPC Thanks, but I was just after a simple description of each of the above mount options. Copying them to my Vagrantfile has fixed the issue, but I’d rather know why it’s fixed it.

[devcircus]

More of a homestead question, maybe vagrant. I would say it's definitely not a bug in the framework itself. Maybe @svpernova09 has some insight.

[svpernova09]

NFS on High Sierra is currently bugged. Will require a MacOS update to fix. Reportedly it has been fixed in Beta 3, but AFAIK at the time of this comment it hasn't been pushed to the public.

If you're using NFS on High Sierra at the moment, all bets are off on if anything at all is going to work. Unfortunately this is a MacOS issue.
