Generating autoload files

Illuminate\Foundation\ComposerScripts::postInstall php artisan optimize

[RuntimeException]
No supported encrypter found. The cipher and / or key length are invalid.

it's my first time and I'm having lots of errors and don't really know how to fix them , I'd appreciate the help thanks

Solution

  • You need to generate key using command php artisan generate:key

    As .env is not present in production so change app.php under config file to Something like below

    'key' => env('APP_KEY','base64:42KCuY7E8Zc+JHrUZFyta4yspqLAjcVZeZVvymrjZBI=')

    This would solve your problem.
