I had this error twice and spent almost 30 minutes to debug it each time. I Hope it will help somebody because all I've found on the internet is solution for turning off xDebug.
PHP Fatal error: Maximum function nesting level of '100' reached, aborting!
This happened to me because I have accidentally injected two classes into each other.
class Foo(Bar $bar){}
class Bar(Foo $foo){}
$bar = new Bar(new Foo(new bar(new Foo(...))));
The reason why didn't saw that is because of Laravel IOC. So synax for instantiating a class would be something like:
$bar = new Bar(Foo $foo);
Here the issue in my case.
I have a service class which is librarie in codeigniter. Having a a function inside like this.
class PaymentService {
private $CI;
public function __construct() {
$this->CI =& get_instance();
}
public function procss(){
// lots of Ci referencing here ...
}
my controller as followed:
$this->load->library('PaymentService');
$this->process_(); // see I got his wrong instead it should be like below
$this->Payment_service->process(); //the library class name
Then I was keeping getting the exceed error message. But I do disable XDebug but non helped. Any way please check you class name or your code for proper function calling.
Issue is caused by default xdebug.max_nesting_level which is 100.
By adding the line below to bootstrap/autoload.php in Laravel 5.1
ini_set('xdebug.max_nesting_level', 120);
.........
define('LARAVEL_START', microtime(true));
This answered helped me.
