php - Receiving blank view with status code 200 in vagrant
I am very new to Laravel and I have been given a very old project and asked to use vagrant/homestead. The project uses php7.2 and doesn't have php artisan. It also doesn't have public folder. The problem is that the I am getting a blank view with status code 200. My homestead.yaml is:
folders:
- map: C:\Users\Desktop\school_erp_lms
to: /home/vagrant/school_lms
sites:
- map: school-lms.test
to: /home/vagrant/school_lms
php: "7.2"
databases:
- u789138695_schoolerp
route.php is:
Route::get('/login','LoginController@index');
LoginController is:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use View;
class LoginController extends Controller
{
public $data = array();
public function __construct()
{
$this->panelInit = new \DashboardInit();
$this->data['panelInit'] = $this->panelInit;
}
public function index()
{
return View::make('login', $this->data);
}
}
.env is:
DB_NAME=u789138695
DB_USERNAME=user
DB_PASSWORD=""
DEBUG=true
login.blade.php is:

The "login.blade.php" file exists under resources/views. The response I am getting is a blank screen with status code 200. I have tried other blades also inplace of login and still got the same response. But when I provided an invalid blade name, I got an error saying blade doesn't exist. Any help is appreciated.

Solution:
What the problem is
Hmmm... To be honest - I'm not sure. I can't really find any bad part of what you're posted.
Maybe it's a caching error.
Solution suggestions
You say that you don't have php artisan working. Hmm... How do you clear the cache then? The command: php artisan cache:clear
None the less... The first command that comes to mind is to try and clear the cache and generates composer-files, with this command:
php artisan cache:clear && composer dump-autoload
But if you can't do php artisan, then maybe just do: composer dump-autoload
Further debugging
If it was me, then I would start at the routes, changing this:
Route::get('/login','LoginController@index');
to this:
dd('hey');
Route::get('/login','LoginController@index');
And then reloading the page. You should then see it say 'Hey' on the screen.
... If that works, then change it to this:
Route::get('/login','LoginController@index');
dd('hey');
Then it _SHOULDN'T say 'Hey' on the screen.
... Then I would work my way through the controller as well.
And afterwards through the view.
To find the place where it deviates what you expect should happen and what really happens.
Fun fact:
I have tried once, where I did this - and moved the dd-statement aaaaaall the way through my code. And in the end, when I simply removed the dd-statement then the unexpected behaviour was gone. It must have been some caching or something.
