Class "Spatie\LaravelPackageTools\PackageServiceProvider" not found

[anchovie91471]

I installed this package in Laravel 10.48.20/PHP 8.2.22 and got the following error:

`Generating optimized autoload files

Illuminate\Foundation\ComposerScripts::postAutoloadDump
@php artisan package:discover --ansi

In ApprovalServiceProvider.php line 8:

Class "Spatie\LaravelPackageTools\PackageServiceProvider" not found

Script @php artisan package:discover --ansi handling the post-autoload-dump event returned with error code 1
`
Any idea why this would happen?

I'm not sure, sorry. More than likely unique to yourself and your setup. Maybe try removing the vendor folder and composer.lock and try re-run Composer. Make sure the versions match up etc.

If those fail, I'm afraid I don't know the answer.

OK. Thank you!

[anchovie91471]

That worked! Thank you again!

I still have the same issue, I have done the above and it is still the same

I'm seeing the same issue on a fresh install on a pretty fresh Laravel install.

Hmm, I'll see if I can replicate and if so, sort something out.

I was able to work around by explicitly requiring Spaties package tools as a requirement (not dev)

Interesting. Will still take a look. Ideally I want to take out all the Spatie stuff, it just causes problems

According to their Package Skeleton, package tools should be in the main require not require-dev.

Thanks for the guidance! I'll change it tomorrow, or if anyone wants to do a PR 😜
