This happens when Laravel doesn t find a view file in your application  Make sure you have a file named  index php or index blade php under your app views directory   Note that Laravel will do the following when calling View  make    For View  make  index   Laravel will look for the file  app views index php  For View  make  index foo   Laravel will look for the file  app views index foo php    The file can have any of those two extensions   php or  blade php

In my case  Laravel 5 3  Route  get      function        return View  test          test blade php was not rendering but some other views were rendering on localhost via XAMPP on mac  Upon running artisan server  the view started rendering for same url over XAMPP   php artisan serve   To avoid any such scenario  one should test the Laravel apps with artisan server only

As  deanchiu said it may happen when you move the whole project to another path or server     But in my case I had no access to command line on server and running following commands BEFORE I upload my project helped me      gt  php artisan route clear  gt  php artisan config clear

This might be possible that your view is present even though it shows the error  So to solve this issue you need to stop the server and run this command on the terminal   php artisan config cache   then restart the server

In my case I was calling View  make  User index    where in fact my view was in user directory and it was called index blade php  Ergo after I changed it to View make  user index    all started working

I was having the same error  but in my case the view was called seeProposal    I changed it to seeproposal and it worked fine     It was not being an issue while testing locally  but apparently Laravel makes a distinction with capital letters running in production  So for those who have views with capital letters  I would change all of them to lowercase

I had the same error  I created a directory under views direcotry named users and created an index blade php file in it  When calling this file you should write users index to indicate your path  Or just create index blade php file under views  hope this will help someone who gets the same problem

Somewhat embarrassingly  I discovered another rather trivial cause for this error  I had a full stop in the filename of my blade file  eg resources views pages user invitation blade php   It really did make sense at the time   I was trying to reference it like so  view  pages user invitation    but of course Laravel was looking for the file at resources views pages user invitation blade php and throwing the view not found   Hope this helps someone

This command works for me   php artisan config cache   As Laravel doc says that by default  Laravel is configured to use the file cache driver  which stores the serialized  cached objects in the filesystem  So it needs to recache the file system so that newly added views and route are available to show  I also not sure why laravel needs to recache actually

This error also occurs when you try to move the whole project directory to other path  And you happened to run the following commands below BEFORE you move   php artisan optimize --force php artisan config cache php artisan route cache   Mine error message shows like this   As you can see the old path was written in the compiled php  So  to fix the problem  Simply run the same command AGAIN under the project folder in your new folder location   php artisan optimize --force php artisan config cache php artisan route cache   Hope this helps

User · Answer

Use this on your cmd then run your project   php artisan config cache php artisan route cache php artisan controller cache php artisan optimize clear

User · Answer

If your path to view is true first try to  config cache and route cache if nothing changed check your resource path permission are true   example  your can do it in ubuntu with    sudo chgrp -R www-data resources views sudo usermod -a -G www-data  USER
