You probably have not set environment variables on the new server; e.g. if you are using .env in production, this doesn't usually get put into version control so wouldn't have been deployed to the new server

No supported encrypter found. The cipher and / or key length are invalid.
My site works fine locally and on another shared hosting server. However, I'm trying to move the site to a new host but I got the following error when I moved the files and DB to the new host. Any idea please?
RuntimeException in EncryptionServiceProvider.php line 29: No supported encrypter found. The cipher and / or key length are invalid.

Check what happens in EncryptionServiceProvider.php in line 29 and you have a good hint on where to look.

@tykus, the .env file is there on the server

And there is a key set?
Have you run composer install on the new server?

I installed mcrypt ext and it worked :)

Yeah, that mcrypt is a beast. That is actually the reason I left Linux and bought a MacBook Pro. I was tired of spending week after week trying to get mcrypt to play nice with Laravel on Linux Mint 17.3...
