MANIFEST-PROVIDER-001
No service provider
services/provider.php (DI)
Without a provider, Joomla 4+ cannot construct namespaced MVC or plugins. This is the #1 “installs, then every view 500s” after you add a namespace.
No service provider → services/provider.php registering MVCFactory / plugin
What you will see
- Could not create MVC
- Service not found
- Failed to start application
