Question

I know that this is a known error with things like forms in Laravel  But I am facing an issue with basic authentication in Laravel 5 2    I created the auth using Laravel   php artisan make auth   Now I have the same copy of code on my server and my local  On my local I am getting no issue whatsoever  However on my server  when I try to register a user I get the error saying TokenMismatchException in VerifyCsrfToken php Line 67  Both my local and server environments are in sync  yet I keep getting the error on registration  Any help on how I can fix this

Have you checked your hidden input field where the token is generated?

If it is null then your token is not returned by csrf_token function.You have to write your route that renders the form inside the middleware group provide by laravel as follows:

  Route::group(['middleware' => 'web'], function () {
Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

Here root route contains my sign up page which requires csrf token. This token is managed by laravel 5.2.7 inside 'web' middleware in kernel.php.

Do not forget to insert {!! csrf_field() !!} inside the form..

You should try this   Add    csrf field      just after your form opening tag like so    lt form method  POST  action   your     action id     gt     csrf field

If you check some of the default forms from Laravel 5 4 you fill find how this is done    lt form class  form-horizontal  role  form  method  POST  action     route  password email       gt       csrf field          lt div class  form-group    errors- gt has  email       has-error           gt       lt label for  email  class  col-md-4 control-label  gt E-Mail Address lt  label gt        lt div class  col-md-6  gt         lt input id  email  type  email  class  form-control  name  email  value     old  email       required gt   if   errors- gt has  email           lt span class  help-block  gt                                           lt strong gt     errors- gt first  email      lt  strong gt                                       lt  span gt   endif      lt  div gt     lt  div gt      lt div class  form-group  gt       lt div class  col-md-6 col-md-offset-4  gt         lt button type  submit  class  btn btn-primary  gt                                      Send Password Reset Link                                  lt  button gt       lt  div gt     lt  div gt   lt  form gt         csrf field        is the most appropriate way to add a custom hidden field that Laravel will understand   csrf filed   uses csrf token   inside as you can see   if    function exists  csrf field                     Generate a CSRF token form field                 return  Illuminate Support HtmlString             function csrf field                 return new HtmlString   lt input type  hidden  name   token  value    csrf token      gt               And csrf field   method uses session for the job   function csrf token          session   app  session         if  isset  session             return  session- gt token               throw new RuntimeException  Application session store not set

Make sure      csrf field         is added within your form in blade syntax   or in simple form syntax   lt input type  hidden  name   token  value     csrf token       gt    along with this  make sure  in session php  in config folder   following is set correctly    domain    gt  env  SESSION DOMAIN    sample-project com      or update the same in  env file like   SESSION DOMAIN sample-project com   In my case     csrf field       was added correctly but SESSION DOMAIN was not configured correctly  After I changed it with correct value in my  env file  it worked

I m assuming you added  this- gt middleware  auth    inside the constructor of your controller to get the authentication working  In your login register forms  if you are using     Form  someElement      add the following line at the top as well       csrf field         Or if you are using input tags inside your forms  just add the following line after  lt form gt  tag    lt input type  hidden  name   token  value     csrf token       gt    Hope this helps

By default session cookies will only be sent back to the server if the browser has a HTTPS connection  You can turn it off in your  env file  discouraged for production   SESSION SECURE COOKIE false   Or you can turn it off in config session php   secure    gt  false

I had a similar issue and it was an easy fix   Add this in your HTML meta tag area       lt meta name  csrf-token  content     csrf token       gt    Then under your JQuery reference  add this code     lt script type  text javascript  gt          ajaxSetup           headers                 X-CSRF-TOKEN      meta name  csrf-token     attr  content                          lt  script gt    If you are using the HTML form submit  not AJAX  then you need to put       csrf field         inside your form tags

I have same issue when I was trying out Laravel 5 2 at first  then I learnt about      csrf field        to be added in the form and that solved it  But later I learnt about Form Helpers  this takes care of CSRF protection and does not give any errors  Though Form Helpers are not legitimately available after Laravel 5 2  you can still use them from LaravelCollective
