[shadywattay]

Recently I upgraded my Laravel to ver 9.20.0 which brings this err

Class "Barryvdh\DomPDF\Facade" not found

I have included it in the providers Barryvdh\DomPDF\ServiceProvider::class,

and aliases too 'DPDF' => Barryvdh\DomPDF\Facade::class,

Please help.

In the process of upgrading from Laravel 8.35 to Laravel 9.19, I also upgraded: "barryvdh/laravel-dompdf": "^0.9.0", To "barryvdh/laravel-dompdf": "^2.0.0",

Then I received this error:

Class "Barryvdh\DomPDF\Facade" not found {"userId":12,"exception":"[object] (Error(code: 0): Class \"Barryvdh\\DomPDF\\Facade\" not found.

Following @erikn69's recommendation in a comment, I inspected my controller and solved this issue using:

Instead of: ❌

use Barryvdh\DomPDF\Facade as DomPDF;

class StudentController extends Controller
{
    function downloadStudentList() {
        return DomPDF::loadView(...);
    }
}

Use this: ✅

use Barryvdh\DomPDF\Facade\Pdf;

class StudentController extends Controller
{
    function downloadStudentList() {
        return Pdf::loadView(...);
    }
}

[Nutandc]

use Barryvdh\DomPDF\Facade\Pdf as PDF;

class StudentController extends Controller
{
    function downloadStudentList() {
        return PDF::loadView(...);
    }
}

On latest update package has changed it name.
