I'm using Laravel 10, in this time being, and I resolve this when renaming my index.blade.php into different file name such as home.blade.php

I tried using:

php artisan optimize:clear

Seems it doesn't work, so I renamed index.blade.php into home.blade.php

And on the controller

I replaced:

public function showIndex()
{
    return view('index');
}

Into:

public function showIndex()
{
    return view('home');
}

And inside the route on web.php: In my case it's:

Route::view('/', [HomeController::class, 'showIndex'])->name('home.index');

I hope this works as a solution to this error.

If you are using GIT in your project don't forget make git add . and commit before of move the project to another side and also don't forget clean the cache.

In addition to these answers, if your view is in an unusual directory for the project, you'll have to add the following to /config/view.php

    'paths' => [
    resource_path('views'),
    resource_path('../path/from/project/route/to/view')
],

I had the same error. I created a directory under views direcotry named users and created an index.blade.php file in it. When calling this file you should write users.index to indicate your path. Or just create index.blade.php file under views. hope this will help someone who gets the same problem

If your path to view is true first try to config:cache and route:cache if nothing changed check your resource path permission are true.

example: your can do it in ubuntu with :

sudo chgrp -R www-data resources/views
sudo usermod -a -G www-data $USER

This might be possible that your view is present even though it shows the error. So to solve this issue you need to stop the server and run this command on the terminal.

php artisan config:cache

then restart the server

Somewhat embarrassingly, I discovered another rather trivial cause for this error: I had a full stop in the filename of my blade file (eg resources/views/pages/user.invitation.blade.php). It really did make sense at the time!

I was trying to reference it like so: view('pages.user.invitation')

but of course Laravel was looking for the file at resources/views/pages/user/invitation.blade.php and throwing the view not found.

Hope this helps someone.

I was having the same error, but in my case the view was called seeProposal.

I changed it to seeproposal and it worked fine...

It was not being an issue while testing locally, but apparently Laravel makes a distinction with capital letters running in production. So for those who have views with capital letters, I would change all of them to lowercase.

This command works for me

php artisan config:cache

As Laravel doc says that by default, Laravel is configured to use the file cache driver, which stores the serialized, cached objects in the filesystem. So it needs to recache the file system so that newly added views and route are available to show. I also not sure why laravel needs to recache actually

As @deanchiu said it may happen when you move the whole project to another path or server.

But in my case I had no access to command line on server and running following commands BEFORE I upload my project helped me.

> php artisan route:clear
> php artisan config:clear

In my case, Laravel 5.3

Route::get('/', function(){
    return View('test');
});

test.blade.php was not rendering but some other views were rendering on localhost via XAMPP on mac. Upon running artisan server, the view started rendering for same url over XAMPP.

php artisan serve

To avoid any such scenario, one should test the Laravel apps with artisan server only.

This error also occurs when you try to move the whole project directory to other path. And you happened to run the following commands below BEFORE you move.

php artisan optimize --force
php artisan config:cache
php artisan route:cache

Mine error message shows like this enter image description here

As you can see the old path was written in the compiled.php. So, to fix the problem. Simply run the same command AGAIN under the project folder in your new folder location.

php artisan optimize --force
php artisan config:cache
php artisan route:cache

Hope this helps.

In my case I was calling View::make('User/index'), where in fact my view was in user directory and it was called index.blade.php. Ergo after I changed it to View@make('user.index') all started working.

This happens when Laravel doesn't find a view file in your application. Make sure you have a file named: index.php or index.blade.php under your app/views directory.

Note that Laravel will do the following when calling View::make:

  • For View::make('index') Laravel will look for the file: app/views/index.php.
  • For View::make('index.foo') Laravel will look for the file: app/views/index/foo.php.

The file can have any of those two extensions: .php or .blade.php.
