Uncaught Error: Class "Auth0\SDK\..." not found

Hi,
Based on the instructions below, I am trying to add login to my PHP application using the Auth0 PHP-SDK:

Despite trying endless methods and different examples found on web, I’m still getting the error -
“Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class Auth0\SDK\Configuration\SdkConfiguration not found”
I am wondering if it is related to some Apache or PHP settings of my Plesk installation, since it happens with any class, not just auth0. I’m using DigitalOcean VM, with Plesk installed.
It would be greatly appreciated if you could help me. Unfortunately, I was not able to find a solution in the documentation.
Thank you,
Mati

Hey @matigo :wave:

It sounds like your PHP installation is failing the load the SDK files.

  1. Can you confirm you have Composer accessible and installed the SDK using Composer?
  2. Can you confirm your app is loading the Composer autoload.php file, from within the vendor subdirectory?
  3. From a shell, can you run ‘composer show -I’ from your project directory root (where your composer.json and lock file are) and share the output here to help diagnose.

Thanks!

Hey @matigo :wave: Thanks for the extra info. So, that explains the situation: you’re using the previous version of the PHP SDK, which our documentation doesn’t reference anymore. The class in question is new to V8 of the PHP SDK.

The fact that Composer installed this version of the SDK for you instead of the latest tells me your environment is running an older and unsupported version of PHP. Can you check what version of PHP is installed? Our supported PHP versions follow the official support lifecycle, which can be found here: PHP: Supported Versions

Looks like I’m using PHP 8.1.7.
Anyway, is is possible to manually enforce the installation/using of the latest version of the
Sdk?
Thank you,
Mati

Unusual! Was this a fresh installation of the SDK, or are you migrating a project of some kind? I’m not certain why Composer would have delivered SDK V7 on a new project with PHP 8.1, that doesn’t make sense. You might run php -v from your shell just in case, perhaps, your environment is mistakenly invoking an outdated version of the PHP somewhere on the host. (Most likely Pesk upgraded your PHP runtime after the Composer install occurred, but it’s impossible to say.)

In any case, try running composer require auth0/auth0-php "^8.0". As a last resort, you can try manually setting the version in your composer.json file to ^8.0 and running composer install again.

Thanks a lot. It finally worked when I required the 8.0 version.

I’ll use this thread for another question:

I have integrated Auth0 login into my MediaWiki at https://wiki.[mydomain]/. It works perfectly.

I have another subdomain (let’s call it https://site.[mydomain]/) that contains a simple php website. My application used in wiki’s subdomain has that subdomain added to its cross origin settings.

Now I just want to add simple session check to the other sub-domain - if the user is already logged in, he can continue to site.mydomain - otherwise he will be redirected to authentication login (I’m using Auth0’s login form, not mine)

I have tried many code examples, but I am unable to make it work. Can you give me an example of code for this scenario in a production environment (not a local environment)?

Thank you,

Mati

Glad you got it sorted!

As to your other question: Assuming both apps are using the same configuration, and you have configured the ‘cookieDomain’ to “.mydomain.whatever” (so the session cookie is accessible to all subdomains) you shouldn’t need to do any particularly special coding; it should just work.

The only practical issue I foresee there is both apps need to use the same Auth0 Application details, which means the redirect url will need to point to a specific url on one of those apps to handle the call back.

To check if a session is available you can just use the ‘getCredentials()’ method from the SDK.
