Getting "Slim Application Error A website error has occurred. Sorry for the temporary inconvenience."

I am using slim 3.0

Here is my source code

<?php

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Kolkata");

//use Monolog\Logger; //use Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler; //$log = new Logger('name'); //$log->pushHandler(new StreamHandler('app.txt', Logger::WARNING)); //$log->addWarning('Foo');

$app = new \Slim\App();

$app->get('/', function() use($app) { $app->render('index.html'); });

$app->get('/contact', function($request, $response, $args) { echo 'Feel free to contact us'; });

$app->run();

?>

Please suggest me

If you followed along with the teacher when he installed slim using composer then you are no doubt using a different version of Slim then the teacher since it has been updated.

In order to follow along with this video I recommend switching to the 2.6.3 version. Simply go your composer.json file and and change the version of slim to:

"require": {
        "monolog/monolog": "^1.22",
        "slim/slim": "2.6.3"
    }

Then open your console and type

composer update

That should update slim to a similar version of what the teacher is using.

You should now be able to follow along with the teacher.
