framework: No hint path defined for [errors]

Laravel Version: 6.0.4
PHP Version: 7.3.9

Description:

Laravel doesn’t find path for built in error page layouts such as @extends('errors::minimal') (for neither of errors::minimal, errors::layout, errors::illustrated-layout);

If I publish pages and have ordinary view path pointer it of course works. However I have done it in the past and find it very useful just to extend the vendor provided layout. If it is an intentional change for version ^6.0.0, then this, sadly, may be closed.

Real world example from another L5.8 project

Steps To Reproduce:

Clone and serve https://github.com/flexchar/laravel-error-blade-template

Or manual steps:

Create blade view that extends built in error page layout.

@extends('errors::minimal')

@section('title', $title ?? $message)
@section('code', 200)
@section('message', $message ?? $title)

Return it as a view in a route:

return view('pages.simple')->withMessage('they are simple yet pretty');

Get the following error Facade\Ignition\Exceptions\ViewException No hint path defined for [errors]. thrown:

Hey Guys, I had the same issue today, what was solved by changing @extends(‘errors:minimal’) to @extends(‘errors.minimal’) in the view. So change the colon to dot. Hopefully it will help you!

@MattHowdy Add “$this->registerErrorViewPaths();” line to the very first of render method.

public function render($request, Exception $exception)
{
    $this->registerErrorViewPaths();

   // your logic here.
}

It works for me, Laravel 7

Change to @extends('errors.minimal')
Copy file vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Exceptions/views/minimal.blade.php to resources/views/errors/minimal.blade.php
404 error page is displayed correctly
