Routes.php not working just being completely bypassed - php

So I have been working on Laravel projects with no issues at my new job, however I decided it was time to get it up and running on my system at home which for purposes of this question is running MS Windows 10. I managed to get it all set up correctly, however upon trying to get the test app working just to make sure everything was correctly configured, I am unable to get passed the laravel welcome (welcome.blade.php) despite having the Routes.php file in place.
The clean project was git cloned directly from laravel/laravel and I had no issues with this working on my work computer when I very first started learning Laravel. I'm not getting any errors, the routes are simply not working!
Btw I had to create the Routes.php file manually for some reason, even though I created my migrations and did:
artisan migrate
The views directory I created called 'testview' is being completely ignored in the routes file when calling:
Route::get('/', 'TestController#index');
Controller code:
Return view('testview.index');
That is within the public function index() just for those who try to be smart and say "oh but you didn't have it contained within a method".
Please could someone help and tell me where I'm going wrong??

It seems that for some reason the version of laravel on GIT is out of date as I peformed a different command line action using Composer and that installed the latest version. So in closing I've sorted this out myself, thanks.

How to fix bizarre incorrect Laravel routing?

I am building a simple website in Laravel 6. I used the built in Laravel artisan tools to create authentication routes and views.
After logging in, a user should be redirected to /home. However, every now and then Laravel will redirect to /js/popper.js.map
I have no idea why Laravel is doing this! I have scoured error logs, to no avail. I am using Bootstrap, but I never explicitly told Laravel to import or use Popper. I have no idea why it specifically wants to go this specific file?? I've had this problem for weeks.
Sometimes running php artisan config:cache and cache:clear help, but not always. Furthermore, it sometimes will happen on my remote server, or on local, but often not at the same time, making it very hard to debug.
I have declared the Auth routes with the built in Laravel Auth. Like so:
php artisan ui bootstrap
And in web.php:
Auth::routes();
I expect logging in to redirect to /home, which then redirects to welcome/red (part of my software). Instead, it gets stuck at js/popper.js.mapand 404s. Logging in WORKS, and I can access authenticated content. But it's a bad user experience to get stuck in a 404 page for no reason.
Does anyone have any clue where Laravel is getting the idea to redirect to /js/popper.js.map? Thank you!!!!
I’ve never had this issue. Maybe you could start with a simple controller and view? Without any assets and packages loaded? From that point add packages and assets one by one. You should find your bug. And did you write any tests? That should help a lot!
And I assume this popper.js file is loaded by a npm package? Maybe it helps to uninstall it?

Laravel app downloading all assets again on every route request

I have a strange error in my Laravel(5.6)/app. Whenever there is any route request in the app, all css, js, bootstrap and icons files reload all over again in the browser. I'm debugging this app from last 2 days. And I have no clue what's going on.
I worked on this project a few days ago and it was working fine then I started working on some other project and after a couple of days when I worked again on this project to add some new features, it is behaving like this. Whenever I request any route in the app, all the assets download and load again in the browser. I didn't provide any code sample here because I don't know where the error might be.
If there have been an error in some particular file then that particular route would have behave that way. But all routes reload all the assets all over again. So I just want your opinion is this ever happens to you and how should I tackle it?
If you wanna recreate this project then here is the GitHub link. Git Repo . Recreating this project is very easy. Just create a database. run migrations and then seed the database. For sass and js ,run 'npm run dev' if needed.
Update: Solution to this problem is, don't use buit-in server of laravel, it sucks. Use any php development stack like xampp, wamp etc. and it will work fine.

I can't generate migration file with make:migration command in Laravel

This happened to me a couple of months ago. It might have happened in the process of a composer update, but I'm far from sure on that one. I've even updated my project to Laravel 5.3 and it still I can not get make:migration to work through Artisan. No the project it updated to 5.4 and it still do not work.
I've checked out this thread and I have the exact same problem. The symptoms were exactly the same, however the OPs solutions did not work for me.
I get no error or result in the terminal when running make:migrate.
I can generate any other file through Artisan it seems.
I tried to create a new model and pass the -m along with it. Didn't work.
I've checked permissions (and even changed migration folder), but didn't
help.
If I create my own migration-file the rest of the process through artisan works fine (migrate, DB-manipulation etc).
I've tried with different terminals and computers.
Since project were upgraded and even reinstalled I fear it has
nothing to do with the deep kernal. However maybe some sort of conflict from the higher level.
And in the last phase of my quest I tried to figure out what user interacting elements that can possibly effect the make:migration. Nothing worked.
I searched the web without any solution, then I gave up on that project and started to make my own migration files. However I now got some new hope when I saw that other thread.
After some troubleshooting I finaly managed to figure out the problem.
I narrowed it down to have something to do with the config/app.php-file.
Seems I in this project had typed in:
'timezone' => 'UTC+2'
This made creation of migration-files come to a halt without error messages. And it effected only the creation of migration-files (at least what I noticed).
I changed it to 'UTC' and it worked liked a charm again.
Note: the 'UTC+2' worked in the application and I never saw any other indications of errors regarding the rest of the app.php-file, or in the application in general.
Solution: When I instead used the parameters from this site it all worked perfectly again.

bootstrap.php.cache is missing

I have a problem with Symfony 2. trying the example from the book. I have written a controller but when i go to the URL specified in the route i get an error. The server can't find the page. When i run app_dev.php i get an error that the file boostrap.php.cache is missing.
searched on the internet but found nothing relevant so far. I don't know if the front-controller is already written or if that is something that still has to be done by me.
I can't get the application to run.
Found the solution. I followed the guidelines installing sf2 in netbeans. Instead of running the application as a local website i used the build-in server option wich gave me access to the cli commands. There i could use the command run server and all of my problems were gone.

Laravel not showing the new changes

Any idea on this? I am currently using Laravel 4.2.
We have an existing web application already running in live. Something needs to be changed so I downloaded all the files from live server to my localhost via ftp and do the update in there. Everything is working fine in localhost but when I tried to upload(ftp) the select files (that were only updated- a blade file, a controller and a model), and and test the live site, the changes aren't showing. Checked the html elements thru browser dev tools and indeed it's just the old version. The id that I newly added in the div isn't there.
I checked in the filemanager if the files were successfully updated and it's there.
I am done doing the following:
cleared my browser cache, cleared files in /app/storage/views. What else to do?
Is updating the files thru FTP for laravel not good? Honestly I am just a newbie to this framework so your explicit explanation would be appreciated. Thanks!
Laravel compiles all files before they are deployed most times. If the files are not recompiled on the server, then it's gonna keep running the old setup. if you have terminaal access, runningphp artisan clear-compiled may fix your problem. I may be wrong but this is what i see from where i'm sitting.
