php - Unknown: Failed opening required on line 0. laravel 5.6

I just installed laracast/flash and updated nesbot/carbon via composer. The cmd went nuts while downloading carbon. Cmd interface displayed scattered words and boxes all over the interface for a while and the download was completed. Did php artisan serve at localhost:8000 and I've got the following errors.

Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0

Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required 'C:\xampp\htdocs\NC World\ProjectName\server.php' (include_path='C:\xampp\php\PEAR') in Unknown on line 0

I faced the same problem but disabling antivirus didn't help. However, after visiting my Avast Antivirus table I noticed that the server.php file had been quarantined. I therefore restored and added it as an exception. And now my server is up with no errors

php -S localhost:8000

Make sure there is no space between "localhost:" and "8000"

This thing mostly happen when have a virus guard so create exception or if it deleted by virus guard create file called server.php and past below code.


<?php

/**
 * Laravel - A PHP Framework For Web Artisans
 *
 * @package  Laravel
 * @author   Taylor Otwell <[email protected]>
 */

$uri = urldecode(
    parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH)
);

// This file allows us to emulate Apache's "mod_rewrite" functionality from the
// built-in PHP web server. This provides a convenient way to test a Laravel
// application without having installed a "real" web server software here.
if ($uri !== '/' && file_exists(__DIR__.'/public'.$uri)) {
    return false;
}

require_once __DIR__.'/public/index.php';

I am using Avast Free Antivirus, and it has detected server.php as a virus. Please restore server.php from the quarantine of your antivirus software.

You can also go in your antivurus params and restore server.php + add an exception it worked fine for me without recreate a project.

Type in the command line:

php -S localhost:8000 -t public

because port is not public

This error happens because the server.php file is missing. May be it is deleted or removed from your project directory. I have already faced this problem. Just add the server.php file at root of your project. You can add this file from any other laravel project directory or just create a file named server.php at root directory of your laravel project and paste the following code:

<?php

/**
 * Laravel - A PHP Framework For Web Artisans
 *
 * @package  Laravel
 * @author   Taylor Otwell <[email protected]>
 */

$uri = urldecode(
    parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH)
);

// This file allows us to emulate Apache's "mod_rewrite" functionality from the
// built-in PHP web server. This provides a convenient way to test a Laravel
// application without having installed a "real" web server software here.
if ($uri !== '/' && file_exists(__DIR__.'/public'.$uri)) {
    return false;
}

require_once __DIR__.'/public/index.php';

This process works for me.
