In Laravel 9, Vite is used as the default tool bundler. To avoid the Vite manifest not found error, you need to install npm and run the following commands:
npm install
npm run dev
If you see the package.json file, you must use Vite runtime commands such as npm run dev or npm run build. Both commands are available.
To solve the “Vite manifest not found” error, run the following command:
npm run dev
# OR
npm run build Note: Use two terminals to avoid the Vite manifest error.
Clear Cache
Laravel sometimes caches configuration files. Try running the following command to clear the configuration cache.
php artisan config:clear
