路线组问题

The following is a portion of my routing file. However, whenever I visit the /recipe or /recipe/{id} url's i get the error

Cannot redeclare class Recipe.

Recipe is the name of my model btw.

Route::group(array('before' => 'auth'), function(){
    Route::any('/logout', 'LoginController@actionLogout');
    Route::get('/recipe/add', 'RecipeController@showAdd');
    Route::post('/recipe/add', 'RecipeController@actionAdd');
});
Route::any('/', 'HomeController@actionHome');
Route::get('/recipe', 'RecipeController@showIndex');
Route::get('/recipe/{id}', 'RecipeController@showItem');

If I alter the routing file to below the error no longer occur's. However, the url's are then obviously affected by the 'before'=>'auth' meaning it can only be accessed by those which are logged in.

Route::group(array('before' => 'auth'), function(){
    Route::any('/logout', 'LoginController@actionLogout');
    Route::get('/recipe/add', 'RecipeController@showAdd');
    Route::post('/recipe/add', 'RecipeController@actionAdd');
    Route::any('/', 'HomeController@actionHome');
    Route::get('/recipe', 'RecipeController@showIndex');
    Route::get('/recipe/{id}', 'RecipeController@showItem');
});

Am I using groups wrong, or am I missing something.

Edit: The controller file is as follows:

<?

class RecipeController extends BaseController
{

    protected $layout = 'layouts.home';

    public function showIndex()
    {
        $this->layout->content = View::make('recipe.index')->with('recipes', Recipe::paginate(15));
    }

    public function showAdd()
    {
        $this->layout->content = View::make('recipe.add');
    }

    public function actionAdd()
    {
        $recipe = new Recipe;
        $recipe->creator = Auth::user()->id;
        $recipe->title = Input::get('name');
        $recipe->serves = Input::get('serves');
        if (Input::hasFile('image')){
            $fileName = date('m_d_Y_h_i_s_a', time()).'__'.str_replace(' ', '', Input::file('image')->getClientOriginalName());
            Input::file('image')->move('uploads', $fileName);
            $recipe->image = $fileName;
        }
        $recipe->save();
        Log::info(Input::get('method'));
        foreach (Input::get('method') as $index => $item){
            $method = new MethodItem();
            $method->content = $item;
            $method->order = $index;
            $recipe->Method()->save($method);
        }
        return Redirect::to('/recipe')->with('message','Wrong Username or Password');
    }

    public function showItem($id)
    {
        $recipe = Recipe::findOrFail($id);
        $this->layout->content = View::make('recipe.item')->with('recipe', $recipe);
    }

}

And the model:

<?php

class Recipe extends Eloquent{

    /**
     * The database table used by the model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $table = 'recipes';

    public function Creator()
    {
        return $this->belongsTo('User', 'creator');
    }
    public function Method(){
        return $this->hasmany('MethodItem', 'recipe')->orderBy('order');
    }   

}

Edit 2

It appears to be a problem with how Laravel's (or composers) autoloader is working. It appears that at the controller run-time the recipe model has not been instantiated, as detected with class_exists('Recipe', false). However, when i run class_exists('Recipe', true) the error occurs.

Edit3

So the sort or answer I have found is to rename the recipe class (and file name, plus all references to it). I then had to create a blank file named recipe.php. This feels incredibly hacky, but it works so im going to stick with it for now. I wonder if maybe the controllers need to have completely separate name's from the Eloquent models?

The solution is to re-generate the autoload files. For me i just ran composer dump-autoload -o. It appears some users may need composer dump-autoload.

Many thanks to user2094178 for providing the solution.

The answer is simple. You already declared a Recipe class. It has nothing to do with your routes file; so stop looking there. Do a search on your entire project with the query "class Recipe".
