 php artisan boost:install   

   ERROR  There are no commands defined in the "boost" namespace.

[ashleyhindle]

Does php artisan vendor:publish --tag=boost-config work for you @samehdoush ?

This is very bizarre 😕

[hardikdangar]

Same issue.

php -v : PHP 8.3.24 (cli) (built: Aug 1 2025 00:17:19) (NTS)
laravel version : Laravel Framework 11.45.1
tried all above commands.
database : postgres

issue : "ERROR There are no commands defined in the "boost" namespace."

[hardikdangar]

@ashleyhindle tried that,

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=boost-config

INFO No publishable resources for tag [boost-config].

[ashleyhindle]

Ah great, then the service provider isn't being picked up, rather than the commands aren't being registered 🤔 Interesting 🤔

[hardikdangar]

@ashleyhindle Let me know if you want any debug command outputs. happy to help!
