Can you give more context to "Array to String Conversion"
Is it with the code you showed? The error will give you useful information but you don't pass that on.

Hey. I have a DB query which is fetching data and retrieving it as a collection when I "dd" it. The same is stored into a variable and this variable is passed to the view. On running a "foreach" on this variable, I'm trying to access the variable data using "->" in the view page.
When I'm running it on the localhost, there is no issue. But when I try to run the same on the server, "Array to String Conversion" occurs for some users while for others it doesn't.
The error doesn't look like a coding error either since it is random in its nature. Once I clear the cache and cookies of the chrome of the person receiving the error, it disappears.
Since removing cache all the time isn't a feasible solution, could someone explain why this error keeps popping up intermittently.
/* Code in the controller */
$leaddata=DB::table('leads')
->select('services.*','personneldetails.*','addresses.*','leads.*')
->join('personneldetails', 'leads.id', '=', 'personneldetails.Leadid')
->join('addresses', 'leads.id', '=', 'addresses.leadid')
->join('services', 'leads.id', '=', 'services.LeadId')
->where('leads.id','=',$id)
->where('serviceType',$servicetypeinurl)
->orderBy('leads.id', 'DESC')
->get();
/* Blade code snippet */
@foreach ($leaddata as $lead)
<div class="col-sm-12" style="margin-top: 7px;">
<a href="{{'/Verticalhead/'.$lead->id.'/edit?servicetype='.$lead->ServiceType.'&requestedservice='.$lead->requested_service.'&url='.$url}}" class="editt" style="float: right;"><img src="/img/edit.png" class="img-responsive" alt="oops! Not found"> </a>
</div>
@endforeach
Note - It doesn't look like a code error to me because on clearing the cache it vanishes. Any idea why this happens?
