Base directory does not exist, please create or change using %Cache.SerializerPath

[MukiA]

I have the same project on 2 different PCs. One works just fine while the other one is getting the following error:

ErrorException
Base directory C:\projects\Laravel\projectName\storage\purify does not exist, please create or change using %Cache.SerializerPath

Any idea on how to fix this?

Just experienced the same issue, don't know if the package is supposed to create the storage/purify directory automatically but the issue was resolved after I created the directory.

[hilmanski]

just create a "purify" folder in your storage folder

would be nice to add autocreation and checking for this dir.

~~There is also a bug because if storage is a symlink to another location, this error is still thrown, we use laravel envoy and that means our storage is in the root dir but each release gets a symlink to it~~

Nvm I created the folder in storage/purify instead of storage/app/purify, but yeah this should really be automated though the issue might be upstream then but a patch could be made here
