I had implemented multi-auth for my application and it was working fine until it just stopped.I've scoured the internet for a solution but to no avail. So I do have Admin Login Controller and the default Laravel Login controller which uses make:auth and implements authenticable for users. My admin login is working fine but the user login fails and returns this
BadMethodCallException Method Illuminate\Auth\RequestGuard::attempt does not exist.
The same thing happens when I try to register a user but this time it returns it returns
BadMethodCallException
Method Illuminate\Auth\RequestGuard::login does not exist.
Despite the error the user registration passes and the fields are actually populated in the users table from the registration form. Since I'm using the default auth I'm expecting it to automatically login , and i guess this is where the problem arises on the attemp method.
It's imperative to note that I am using Passport on the user Model for another module.
Below is how my Login Controller looks like
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers;
class LoginController extends Controller
{
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Login Controller
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| This controller handles authenticating users for the application and
| redirecting them to your home screen. The controller uses a trait
| to conveniently provide its functionality to your applications.
|
*/
use AuthenticatesUsers;
/**
* Where to redirect users after login.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $redirectTo = '/';
/**
* Create a new controller instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');
}
}
And my Admin Login Controller
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Admin;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
class LoginController extends Controller
{
/*

| redirecting them to your home screen. The controller uses a trait

*/
use AuthenticatesUsers;
/**
* Where to redirect users after login.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $redirectTo = 'admin/dashboard';
/**
* Create a new controller instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('guest:admin', ['except' => 'logout']);
}
/**
* Show the application's login form.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function showLoginForm()
{
return view('admin.admin-login');
}
/**
* Get the guard to be used during authentication.
*
* @param Request $request
* @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\StatefulGuard
*/
public function login(Request $request)
{
// Validate the form data
$this->validate($request, [
'email' => 'required|email',
'password' => 'required|min:8'
]);
// Attempt to log the user in
if (Auth::guard('admin')->attempt(['email' => $request->email, 'password' => $request->password])) {
// if successful, then redirect to their intended location
return redirect()->intended(route('admin.dashboard'));
}
// if unsuccessful, then redirect back to the login with the form data
return redirect()->back()->with('flash_message_error', 'Invalid Access: Please Login With Your Credentials.');
}
public function logout()
{
Auth::guard('admin')->logout();
return redirect('admin')->with('flash_message_error', 'Successfully Logged Out');;
}
}
This is my guard config/auth.php
'guards' => [
'web' => [
'driver' => 'session',
'provider' => 'users',
],
'api' => [
'driver' => 'passport',
'provider' => 'users',

];
And finally below is my user Model
namespace App;
use App\Modules\Event\Bookings;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Laravel\Passport\HasApiTokens;
use GrahamCampbell\Markdown\Facades\Markdown;

* @method static count()

class User extends Authenticatable
{
use HasApiTokens, Notifiable;

* The attributes that are mass assignable.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $fillable = [
'fname','lname', 'email','organization','phone_number', 'password',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be hidden for arrays.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $hidden = [
'password', 'remember_token',
];
public function participant()
{
return $this->hasMany(Bookings::class);
}
public function posts()
{
return $this->hasMany(Posts::class, 'author_id');
}
public function gravatar()
{
$email = $this->email;
$default = "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/50/User_icon-cp.svg/200px-User_icon-cp.svg.png";
$size = 60;
return "https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/" . md5( strtolower( trim( $email ) ) ) . "?d=" . urlencode( $default ) . "&s=" . $size;
}
public function getRouteKeyName()
{
return 'slug';
}
public function getBioHtmlAttribute()
{
return $this->bio ? Markdown::convertToHtml(e($this->bio)) : NULL ;
}
}
Below is My Admin Model
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
/**
* @method static find($user_id)
*/
class Admin extends Authenticatable
{
use Notifiable;
protected $guard = 'admin';
/**
* The attributes that are mass assignable.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $fillable = [
'name', 'email', 'password',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be hidden for arrays.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $hidden = [
'password', 'remember_token',
];
}
I tried to use api as the default guard and it only worked temporarily and started to return the same error, I know attempt method only works on web middleware so what could be the problem? I've removed the vendor folder and reinstalled it using composer update still nothing.. just stuck. Would immensly appraciate the help.
