Hi @michael_oluwaseyi

Not sure what have you done after adding some new code but i guess this is the issue cause your new code is not compiled.

Below is the  command you should run after adding new code.

Go to the root folder of your Magento project and run the following commands :

1. sudo rm -rf var/cache var/generation var/di generated
2. sudo php bin/magento setup:upgrade
3. sudo php bin/magento setup:di:compile
4. sudo php bin/magento cache:clean
5. sudo chmod 777 -R var/

Hope it will solve your problem.

Hello @michael_oluwaseyi

A possible problem like some of the lib files missing

please check error file into bin folder, it should created there, if not found then check into root folder of magento

hope it will help you.

Hi @Manthan Dave thanks for replying to my issue.

When i tried to run the Sudo command, i get an error

"u0529260 is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.".

What could be wrong.

Hi @michael_oluwaseyi

Well it looks like you are not running command from magento 2 root directory !

Right now you are running command from main directory of server , not magento 2 root directory !

That's the reason its showing bin/magento not found.

So change your directory using CD command and go to magento 2 root directory !

Then try the command - it will works !

Hope it helps !

thanks @Manthan Dave the reason is because i was not referring to the right PHP version in my SSH. i was supposed to use /opt/php/7.0/bin/php, instead of /php which is the wrong syntax

Thanks for your contribution.
