No Application Encryption Key Has Been Specified

问题:

I'm new to Laravel and I'm trying to use the Artisan command...

php artisan serve

It displays...

Laravel development server started: http://127.0.0.1:8000

However, it won't automatically launch and when I manually enter http://127.0.0.1:8000 it shows this error:

RuntimeException No application encryption key has been specified.

Any ideas? I'm using Laravel framework 5.5-dev.

From Encryption - Laravel - The PHP Framework For Web Artisans:

"Before using Laravel's encrypter, you must set a key option in your config/app.php configuration file. You should use the php artisan key:generate command to generate this key"

I found that using this complex internet query in google.com:

"laravel add encrption key" (Yes, it worked even with the typo!)

In my case, I also needed to reset the cached config files:

php artisan key:generate
php artisan config:cache

回答3:

Run the command php artisan key:generate it will generate Application Key for your application. You can find the application key(APP_KEY) in .env file.

回答4:

simply run php artisan key:generate

回答5:

I actually had to add a .env file to my project and then copy the contents of .env.example so that the key:generate would work. Not sure why a .env file was not created when I started the project.

回答6:

1. Copy .env.example to .env:

   cp -a .env.example .env

2. Generate a key:

   php artisan key:generate

3. Only then run:

   php artisan serve

回答7:

cp .env.example .env if there is no .env file present. php artisan key:generate command works for me. It generates the encryption key

回答8:

php artisan key:generate
php artisan config:cache

worked for me, but it had to be done in a command prompt on Windows.

Doing it inside the terminal in PHPStorm didn't worked.

A common issue you might experience when working on a Laravel application is the exception:

RuntimeException No application encryption key has been specified.

You'll often run into this when you pull down an existing Laravel application, where you copy the .env.example file to .env but don't set a value for the APP_KEY variable.

At the command line, issue the following Artisan command to generate a key:

php artisan key:generate

This will generate a random key for APP_KEY, After completion of .env edit please enter this command in your terminal for clear cache:php artisan config:cache

Also, you have to restart the server now you will not get to see this error message.

Okay, I'll write another instruction, because didn't find the clear answer here. So if you faced such problems, follow this:

1. Rename or copy/rename .env.example file in the root of your project to .env.

You should not just create empty .env file, but fill it with content of .env.example.

2. In the terminal go to the project root directory(not public folder) and run

php artisan key:generate

3. If everything is okay, the response in the terminal should look like this

Application key [base64:wbvPP9pBOwifnwu84BeKAVzmwM4TLvcVFowLcPAi6nA=] set successfully.

4. Now just copy key itself and paste it in your .env file as the value to APP_KEY. Result line should look like this:

APP_KEY=base64:wbvPP9pBOwifnwu84BeKAVzmwM4TLvcVFowLcPAi6nA=

5. In terminal run

php artisan config:cache

That's it.

You can generate Application Encryption Key using this command:

php artisan key:generate

Then, create a cache file for faster configuration loading using this command:

php artisan config:cache

Or, serve the application on the PHP development server using this command:

php artisan serve

That's it!
