So i've search the farthest reaches of the internet and come up with nothing. Please help!
I am developing locally on my Mac, all is fine.
When I push the site to production (CentOS7 VPS) I get the following error:
BadMethodCallException in Validator.php line 3162: Method [validatePublication] does not exist.
Here is my app/Services/Validation/CustomValidation.php
```
use Illuminate\Validation\Validator;
class CustomValidation extends Validator {
//added only for test
public function validateCartRow($attribute, $value, $parameters)
{
$valid = (is_null(\Cart::get($value))) ? false : true;
return $valid;
}
public function validatePublication($attribute, $value, $parameters)
{
$valid = (\PublisherAPI::publicationByID($value) == false) ? false : true;
return $valid;
}
}
```
Here is my app/Providers/ValidationServiceProvider.php
```
namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use App\Services\Validation\CustomValidation;
use Illuminate\Validation\Validator;
class ValidationServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
/**
* Bootstrap the application services.
*
* @return void
*/
public function boot()
{
$this->app->validator->resolver(function($translator, $data, $rules, $messages)
{
return new \App\Services\Validation\CustomValidation($translator, $data, $rules, $messages);
});
}
/**
* Register the application services.
*
* @return void
*/
public function register()
{
//
}
}
```
Here is my app/Http/Requests/Cart/addToCartRequest.php
```
namespace App\Http\Requests\Cart;
use App\Http\Requests\Request;
class addToCartRequest extends Request
{
/**
* Determine if the user is authorized to make this request.
*
* @return bool
*/
public function authorize()
{
return true;
}
/**
* Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
*
* @return array
*/
public function rules()
{
return [
'row_publication_id' => 'required|string|numeric|publication',
'row_price_key' => 'required|string|numeric',
];
}
}
```
This is the request that is failing on production. Again, I stress this is not a problem on my local Mac.
Any thoughts? I'm stumped...
Thanks!

Turns out it was a filename in app.php when registering the service provider.
I missed it as on local, the filename was correct. However I have a merge-driver setup that I completely forgot about preventing app.php being merged with staging (because of the application URL), so the error persisted.
I think I need to move the application URL to an environment variable and load the relevant config, getting rid of the merge driver.
Thanks to the guys at Laracasts for helping me get to the bottom of this..
