PHP reports that it cannot locate the autoloader within the bootstrap file. Verify the file’s existence in your vendor directory and update the configuration accordingly.
Example:
include_once LIB_DIR . '/loader_script.php';

i had a simlar issue where the autload file was in a diff folder than expected, so doublecheck your file path and any spelling mismatches in the directory names. its a config snafu!
Hey RyanDragon22, I ran into a similar hiccup not too long ago and it turned out that running composer install (or even composer update) really made the difference for me. I found that sometimes after switching machines or updating a dependency, the vendor folder gets a bit out of sync with my config settings. I eventually discovered that my include path was based on an assumption that wasn’t holding up on the new environment, so I had to tweak it a bit.
I’m curious—have you already tried regenerating the autoloader by running composer dump-autoload? Also, sometimes the issue might be related to file permissions or the way the directory is named in your config. It’d be interesting to see if you’re running into these issues consistently across different environments or if it’s an isolated case. What did you find out when you checked these possibilities?
I faced a comparable autoload issue during a server migration where the configuration paths didn’t match the actual file structure in the vendor directory. My solution involved manually verifying that the autoloader file was present and updating the device-specific paths in the configuration file to reflect its true location. I also ensured that proper permissions were set, as this can sometimes prevent file access. This experience taught me to double-check environment-specific setups and always confirm that the configuration files accurately represent the current directory structure.
hey, double-check ur full file path and enure the dir names match real ones. i fnd that sometimes path errors lead to not finding autoloader, espacially on servers with case-sensitiv configs. verify file perms too, could be blocking access. hope this helps!
Hey folks, I’ve been playing around with this sort of issue myself and stumbled on something that might be worth checking out: sometimes the problem isn’t just with the file path itself, but with how the file paths are being resolved in your code. I had a case where I was using relative paths in my bootstrap and switching environments (like from a local machine to a containerized setup) really threw that off. I ended up rewriting my bootstrap to resolve the absolute path of the vendor directory first, which in my case cleared up the autoload problem.
I’m curious, has anyone else noticed that some environments might require extra handling on path resolution? Or maybe you’ve found that tweaks in your PHP configuration, especially around include_path or using realpath(), could help? Would love to hear if anyone has a similar experience or other creative debugging tips!
