Error [RuntimeException] Could not scan for classes inside "database/seeds"

I have a problem running composer update

Error:

[RuntimeException] Could not scan for classes inside "database/seeds" which does not appear to be a file nor a folder

Change composer autoload to

"autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\": "app/",
            "Database\\Factories\\": "database/factories/",
            "Database\\Seeders\\": "database/seeders/"
        }
    }

In Laravel 8 two directories Factory and seeders have Namespace. While in Laravel 7 it's still using the class-map to load them.

First, check your classes if they are using namespace then use psr4 autoload otherwise you can use class-map;
