Issue Description

[I am upgrading from laravel 5.3 to 5.4 ]
In composer.json I have added "toin0u/geocoder-laravel": "^1.0", .I have also removed the config/geocoder.php configuration file .
There is no Geocoder alias in the aliases section of the config/app.php.

have added Geocoder\Laravel\Providers\GeocoderService::class, in config/app.php . but still getting the error when I do ** composer update ** or** composer install **.

Nothing to install or update
Package egeloen/http-adapter is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use php-http/httplug instead.

Somewhere in your code you are trying to use a class Toin0u\Geocoder\GeocoderServiceProvider which doesn't exists. Check UPGRADING section in README. (step 4 I think)

Thanks for jumping in @zedentox ! :) @sameer1202 Please let me know if that solved the issue.

Thanks for your reply sir @zedentox @mikebronner .
yeah there was a class Toin0u\Geocoder\GeocoderServiceProvider in my config/app.php but now I have removed that line from my code. It is still giving error .
I think the actual problem is with Geocoder\Laravel\Providers\GeocoderService::class, when I add this line in the app.php the error comes .
I added "toin0u/geocoder-laravel": "^1.0" in composer.json
and do the composer update everything is working fine , composer install and update is working fine but ,
when I add Geocoder\Laravel\Providers\GeocoderService::class in app.php It gives error .

What could be the problem ?
Thanks for your help !

Error fixed by removing "toin0u/geocoder-laravel": "^1.0" and Geocoder\Laravel\Providers\GeocoderService::class in app.php from the code and updating composer and reinstalling the geocoder , This fixed the above problem .

Bdw Thanks for your help! Issue can be closed now ,but as I have seen in previous issues many people have complained the same error that when they add Geocoder\Laravel\Providers\GeocoderService::class in app.php it causes error . what could be the possible reason for that .
Thank-you

Having the wrong version of the package installed is the most common, I would say. Or not following the upgrade process as intended. You're right that it does seem to cause some confusion, but I hope that will become minimal as more people upgrade.

Glad to see you got everything working again! :)
