The target class does not exist. Laravel 8

  • 772

When trying to get records from a table I get this error:

Illuminate\Contracts\Container\BindingResolutionException Target class [App\Http\Controllers\Usuarios\UsuariosController] does not exist.

web.php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Controllers\AuthControllers;
use App\Http\Controllers\Usuarios;

Route::get('ver-usuarios', [App\Http\Controllers\Usuarios\UsuariosController::class, 'index'])->name('ver-usuarios');

Controller

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Usuarios;
namespace App\Models;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;




class UsuariosController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
        $usuarios_activos = User::where('estado','ACTIVO')->get();
        dd($usuarios_activos);
    }

}

    The error seems to start from the fact that you are declaring your UsersController controller class under the context of 2 namespaces.

    So App\Modelsit's overriding a App\Http\Controllers\Usuariosand so when you try to use the class elsewhere it can't be located.

    I will exemplify the above in this way:

    <?php

namespace Stack;
namespace Trace;

class Clase
{
    
}

var_dump(Clase::class);

    whose output will be:

    string(11) "Trace\Class"

    Final comments:

    • As you can see Class is under the second namespace
    • So if you remove a namespace App\Modelsfrom your controller your code should work.
    • On the other hand, you can avoid writing the same thing twice if you call UsuariosControllereither at the beginning with or when you use said class in the routeuse get
    • You can check the doc. PHP about namespaces
