Hi team,

I followed the readme file to setup the application. But i am getting an error in the step 2.4) Application Settings.

In this step I am trying to generate the encryption key by using the below command

" php artisan key:generate --env=local"

But i got an error , its depicted below

PHP Warning: require(/root/downloads/snipe-it/bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /root/downloads/snipe-it/bootstrap/autoload.php on line 17
PHP Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/root/downloads/snipe-it/bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php') in /root/downloads/snipe-it/bootstrap/autoload.php on line 17

and I checked there is no vendor folder in my download. Can you please help to move forward from this step.

Thanks in advance

Please change the permissions of the install directory to one that can be writable by apache. You should never run a web app as root. Ever. Ever ever.
