ErrorException When Registering with Laravel 8 Jetstream

Question

I started a project on Laravel 7 just before the launch of Laravel 8, I am still learning this framework, so I updated to that version using this steps, and I am aware of this new scaffolding library call Jetstream that I installed with these steps:

1. composer require laravel/jetstream

2. php artisan jetstream:install livewire --teams

3. npm install && npm run dev

4. php artisan migrate

After working on my views and models I am proceeding to implement sessions functionalities, but when I tried to register with the project at localhost:8000/register, and having my data validated I get this error

Trying to get property 'id' of non-object (View: \path-to\my-project\resources\views\navigation-dropdown.blade.php) (View: \path-to\my-project\resources\views\navigation-dropdown.blade.php) (View: \path-to\my-project\resources\views\navigation-dropdown.blade.php) http://localhost:8000/dashboard

This is the section of view that is throwing the exception
navigation-dropdown.blade.php line 169 this is the vanilla file

                    <!-- Team Settings -->
                <x-jet-responsive-nav-link href="{{ route('teams.show', Auth::user()->currentTeam->id) }}" :active="request()->routeIs('teams.show')">
                    {{ __('Team Settings') }}
                </x-jet-responsive-nav-link>
     

The data introduced in the register form gets stored in the database, but the error happens

I checked this other question Laravel Jetstream + Livewire + Teams FeatureTest problems when authenticate but it seems that answer apply to a different context since it is dealing with tests, no the vanilla register functions.

This is my current composer.json

    }
}

I tried installing to test a fresh Laravel project with Jetstream, and this worked as it should, that let me confused as to what happened with my current project.

Answer 1

In the end, what worked for me was create a new fresh project with jetstream, then in my original project deleted the vendor and node_modules folder then copying the files of the new fresh project unto my original project and now it works as expected

Answer 2

The user was not created with a team assigned, see users table and column current_team_id is null. The navigation-menu.blade.php checks only for TeamFeatures but not if a team is really assigned.

            @if (Laravel\Jetstream\Jetstream::hasTeamFeatures())
            @if (Laravel\Jetstream\Jetstream::hasTeamFeatures() && Auth::user()->current_team_id)
