Unable to create configured logger about bugsnag-laravel

[solarsilk]

I believe it's fixed. I tried removing bugsnag and noticed an error: Fatal error: Uncaught ReflectionException: Class "config" does not exist in xxx/src/Illuminate/Container/Container.php:877. Looked into that and ended up doing php artisan config:cache which writes the bootstrap/cache/config.php file. The error went away.

Seems like bugsnag needs that cached config in order to work properly. I never had that issue before. Maybe it's a change in the package??

One more thing: i did a php artisan vendor:publish and published the bugsnag config file. This also seems to resolve the issue and removes the need to do a config:cache.

Hey @solarsilk, glad to hear the issue is resolved! For additional config of Bugsnag other than just setting the API key, I would have expected php artisan vendor:publish to have been run in any case prior to configuration being made during the install. The published config file should then be edited.

Thanks @xander-jones . The installation instructions say "If you’d like to configure Bugsnag further, create and edit" which implies it's optional. Are you saying that publishing the config for this package is a requirement? From my experience above, it seems like it is.

Hey @solarsilk, sorry I wasn't clear whether you were using environment variables to set your Bugsnag configuration, or using the config/bugsnag.php config file. You don't need to use the config file. But, if you're using environment variables and have previously cached your environment variables, you'll need to keep updating the cache every time you make changes to the .env file.

Laravel don't suggest that you cache environment variables in a local dev environment, so might be worth running php artisan cache:clear && php artisan config:clear if you want to continue using environment variables without needing to run php artisan config:cache each time something changes, or switch to using the configuration file method instead.

thanks @xander-jones I cleared everything and published the config/bugsnag.php and I think everything is good now. Thanks.
