Check file folder permissions I struggled with this error today  and no amount of cache  config  autoload clears did anything to help  To add to the confusion  the error was thrown if initiated by a web request  but accessing the class in tinker worked fine  After checking for typo s  syntax errors  and incorrect namespaces  I ended up discovering it was a file permission issue  The folder and file containing my class did not have appropriate permissions so it was throwing this error  The incorrect permission level I had was 771  folder  and 660  file   by changing it to 775 and 664 I was able to get it working  My understanding of the different behaviors is that when running from the command line it was reading the file as my user  which had all the permissions it needed   but when initiated from the web it uses the  quot other quot  permission group which could do nothing

For some reason I had to run composer dumpautoload -o  Notice flag -o which mean with optimization  I don t have any idea why it works only with it but give it a try  Perhaps it helps someone

From my experience  this will show up most of the time when the class you are trying to call has some bugs and cannot be compiled   Check if the class that is not being reflected can be executed at its own

If the issue is not resolved by composer dump-autoload or is not a newly created class   Check for syntax errors in your class and its traits as well  In my case  there was a syntax error in a Trait  but ReflectionException was shown for the actual Class using that Trait instead

I had this error when trying to reach an endpoint in a custom route file  that had a namespace prepended in RouteServiceProvider   The namespace in the class was correct  The file path of the class file was correct  The controller call from the routes file was correct  when not taking the prepended namespace from the RouteServiceProvider into account  The default  router- gt group   namespace        in the RouteServiceProvider was incorrect    Updating the namespace in the RouteServiceProvider solved the issue  as the relative controller path specified in the routes file was now resolving correctly

Usually error message ReflectionException  Class app does not exist appears in larval test when you forget to close connection   if you re using setUp or tearDown function in your test do not forget to close connection by calling parent  setUp and parent  tearDown      public function setUp                 parent  setUp               public function tearDown                 parent  tearDown

I have the same problem with a class  I tried composer dump-autoload and php artisan config clear but it did not solve my problem   Then I decided to read my code to find the problem and I found the problem  The problem in my case was a missing comma in my class  See my Model code         protected      fillable     agente id    matter id    amendment id    tipo id         public      rules              agente id    gt   required       lt   See the comma          tipo id    gt   required              public      niceNames              agente id    gt   Membro       lt   This comma is missing on my code          tipo id    gt   Membro

When it is looking for the seeder class file  you can run composer dump-autoload  When you run it again and it s looking for the Model  you can reference it on the seeder file itself  Like so   use App  Model

I had this problem and I could solve it by doing php artisan config cache   The problem was that I had already run that command previously and later included some new seeder classes   The cached configurations didn t recognize the new classes   So running that command again worked   If you see yourself making frequent changes to include new seeder classes then consider running php artisan config clear   This will enable you to make as many changes as you d like and then after testing you can run config cache again to make things run optimally again

I am not writing as the answer for this question  But I want to help others if they faced the same bug but the answers mentioned here not works  I also tried all the solutions mentioned here  But my problem was with the namespace I used  The path was wrong   The namespace I used is   namespace App Http Controllers    But actually the controller reside inside a folder named  FrontEnd   so the solution is change the namespace to   namespace App Http Controllers Frontend

Perform a composer update  then composer dump-autoload  If the above doesn t solve the problem  change the classmap in your composer json file such that it contains the project-relative path to your php files   quot autoload-dev quot          quot classmap quot              quot tests TestCase php quot            quot database seeds UserTableSeeder php quot    include the file with its path here                      and soon after  perform a composer dump-autoload  and it should work now like a breeze  Edit by  JMSamudio If composer dump-autoload is not found  just enable this option composer config -g -- disable-tls true
