The helper "table" is not defined.`

[hurbanores]

When I run php artisan cron:run it gives me the next exception

[Symfony\Component\Console\Exception\InvalidArgumentException] The helper "table" is not defined.

I have installed
"symfony/css-selector": "2.8.*|3.0.*", "symfony/dom-crawler": "2.8.*|3.0.*"

Since I need that version of symfony, I made a research and if I comment the lines 51, 52, 53 and 56 in RunCommand.php this exception disappears.

Note: The cron runs perfectly even if this exception shows, but it doesn't show the table that helds the run date, in time, run time, errors and jobs information

It seems that the table helper has been deprecated in symfony 2.5 and removed in 3.0 and we have to use the table class instead. Can you remove the lines 51-56 and add the following code?

$table = new \Symfony\Component\Console\Helper\Table($this->getOutput());
$table
    ->setHeaders(array('Run date', 'In time', 'Run time', 'Errors', 'Jobs'))
    ->setRows(array($report['rundate'], $inTime, round($report['runtime'], 4), $report['errors'], count($report['crons'])));
$table->render();

Maybe this helps.

Thanks, I did what you proposed and it functions perfectly, but there is one little mistake, in the line
->setRows(array($report['rundate'], $inTime, round($report['runtime'], 4), $report['errors'], count($report['crons'])));

I've fixed it doing this change:
->setRows(array(array($report['rundate'], $inTime, round($report['runtime'], 4), $report['errors'], count($report['crons']))));

Thank you a lot.

Great, thank you for the correction and the testing. Should I change the Cron code or did you change the Symfony version manually and this error should not happen if you use the default Laravel version?

I have another proyect whitout Symfony installed and Cron its working perfectly, I think you should mention that bug as a note only if the proyect has Symfony > 2.5

Alright, thank you for your feedback. I will add a note to the README.
