Yes, the content is outdated since slim v3 came out. Instead of using the code in the video, use the code mentioned here in the v3 update

http://www.slimframework.com/docs/tutorial/first-app.html

When you change the code to follow that, it should at the very least show a different error if not work completely. Also make sure that you have your configuration settings set to display error details, and change your cache to equal false. If you can't find these settings in the link provided or it's still not working let me know...after I get my sleep because I just spent 3 hours fixing this problem and I was feeling generous about paying it forward. :)

thanks men just to remove the cache it work's fine now thank's a lot
