[FIXED] Laravel Passport - command not defined

Issue

I've been stuggeling with this problem now for days: Installting Laravel passport. I did all accoring to the tutorial. What I did

composer require laravel/passport

Added Laravel\Passport\PassportServiceProvider::class, to the config/app.php

run php artisan migrate and then php artisan passport:install The crasy thing is this works on my local machine. But when I upload this to my webspace via ftp and run php artisan passport:install it gets me this Error:

Uncaught exception - 'There are no commands defined in the "passport" namespace.'

Full error (see on pastbin)

What I did.

1. uploaded all my code without the ./vendor and composer.lock
2. (uploaded the server .env)
3. php composer.phar clearcace
4. php composer.phar update
5. php artisan cache:clear
6. php artisan config:cache
7. php artisan migrate
8. php artisan passport:install

And then the error happens...

If did php composer.phar require laravel/passport and can see via ftp that in the /vendor/laravel/ the passport folder is there!

Solution

If you run on shared hosting try

export APP_RUNNING_IN_CONSOLE=true

After that you can run php artisan passport:install

Laravel's runningInConsole method check if that environment is set or the output php_sapi_name() is cli or phpdbg. At a shared host it can be cgi-fcgi
