Question

I try to build Administration Module with Role-based permissions using Entrust package. then update composer.json file as follow:

 "require": {
        "php": ">=7.1.3",
        "fideloper/proxy": "~4.0",
        "laravel/framework": "5.5.*",
        "laravel/tinker": "~1.0",
        "tymon/jwt-auth": "1.0.0-rc.1",
        "zizaco/entrust": "dev-master"
},

after run composer update command After open up config/app.php, find the providers array and add the entrust provider:

Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustServiceProvider::class,

Find the aliases array and add the entrust facades:

'Entrust'   => Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustFacade::class,

Run the command below from the command line to publish the package config file.

php artisan vendor:publish

Then get following error:

In ProviderRepository.php line 208:

Class 'Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustServiceProvider' not found

How to solve this error?? I also try composer dump-autoload command.But cannot solve this error. then get following error.

In ProviderRepository.php line 208:

Class 'Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustServiceProvider' not found

Script @php artisan package:discover handling the post-autoload-dump event returned with error code 1

please help me. Thanks in advance.

I am not sure what is inside the ProviderRepository, but my guess is that you have to import the class like this:

use Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustRole;

If that does not work remove the package from your composer.json and install it like this:

composer require zizaco/entrust
