No pubspec.yaml file found.

[chiefmarko]

I can see the pubspec.yaml file in my project, however, project cannot run and gives the following error:

Error: No pubspec.yaml file found.
This command should be run from the root of your Flutter project.
Do not run this command from the root of your git clone of Flutter.

I have tried opening new projects and all throw the same error. Please assist

What Flutter version?
Please provide the output of flutter doctor -v
Purging the Flutter install directory and install it again might be worth a try.

Tried purging and re-installing flutter, dart and associated plugins to no avail

[zoechi]

Did you try accepting the licenses?

[kevmoo]

Please ask this type of question in https://stackoverflow.com/

Did you run the command in the directory w/ pubspec.yaml?

Closing as this doesn't seem an issue – but happy to help you figure things out.

[chiefmarko]

Yeah directory has pubspec.yaml

[zoechi]

Is this when you run it on iPhone or iOS emulator or also on Android?
Could be a dup of flutter/flutter#9706 or flutter/flutter#2990

[chiefmarko]

Android

If you can still reproduce I'd suggest you create a new issue in the Flutter repo with more information about your project, and in which directory the pubspec.yaml is, what it contains and in what directory you run your app using what command.

Not sure if the pubspec.yaml should be at the root directory of your application, but I'm guessing in your case it should be at "C:\Saravanan\Flutter_visibility\tvs_invisibility" instead of inside the "test" subfolder. Secondly, the terminal seems to be pointing at another folder directory namely "C:\Saravanan\Flutter_SDK\flutter", hence you might want to change the directory it is pointing at to the "C:\Saravanan\Flutter_visibility\tvs_invisibility".

For my case, the pubspec.yaml file and the other files was at the folder "C:\Desktop\Flutter\my_app_name\my_app_name" when i created the new project using "Flutter: New Project". In the first "my_app_name" folder, it had nothing except for another "my_app_name" folder, thus i had to move all the files to one level before which is ""C:\Desktop\Flutter\my_app_name" and ensure that the terminal is pointing to this directory before running the flutter run command, the flutter doctor can run even if it is not pointing to the root of the directory, but "flutter run" can only execute when pointing at the correct directory.

I was getting this one when running flutter pub get on a dart only lib project (which I've created with intellij interface)... the solution for me, was to use pub get (from dart sdk folder) instead of flutter pub get

In case anyone else has this problem - I had this issue and then I realized I was trying to launch from the wrong folder (my app was in a sub folder). So I just needed to change directories in the terminal.
