Description:

Return value of Spatie\Once\Backtrace::getObject() must be an instance of Spatie\Once\mixed, instance of Laravel\Nova\Http\Requests\NovaRequest returned

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue on a fresh Nova installation:

[FaridAghili]

This happened to me when I was developing on my local machine with PHP 8 installed, and deployed the project to shared hosting which had PHP 7.4 installed.
Notice that, I copied whole Laravel project, including vendor folder to remote host and didn't run composer install on the remote host.

In fact, on my local machine spatie/once v3 got installed by composer (which requires PHP 8), and PHP 8 wasn't available on my hosting.

If you're doing the same, I suggest to install PHP 7.* on your local machine, run composer update, then deploy to server.

@FaridAghili thanks a lot

I can confirm that this issue appears on php 7.4, but not on php 8.0.

I have latest versions of Laravel and Nova.

In order to reproduce just install empty Laravel project from scratch and add Nova via Composer.

Hope it helps.
