Password reset link is pointing to old APP_URL

Run php artisan optimize:clear to clear all the caches

Didn't work as well. It is still send link pointing to the test extension domain

Have you tried to echo the value in tinker?

PHP artisan tinker
env('APP_URL')

Yes I tried that as well. It showed the IP address.

Maybe you can show us how you send the email?

If you use https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/mail#queueing-mail ,

you will need to restart the queue.

My broadcast driver is set to log. So I think queue is not the problem. Plus I do receive the email just that the base url in link is not updated

Hi, are you changing the APP_URL at local?

From the codes, vendor/laravel/framework/src/illuminate/Notifications/ResetPassword.php

The URL generated is using the helper route() which basically current appending the current domain with the URL defined in the web.php

public function toMail($notifiable)
    {
        if (static::$toMailCallback) {
            return call_user_func(static::$toMailCallback, $notifiable, $this->token);
        }

        if (static::$createUrlCallback) {
            $url = call_user_func(static::$createUrlCallback, $notifiable, $this->token);
        } else {
            $url = url(route('password.reset', [
                'token' => $this->token,
                'email' => $notifiable->getEmailForPasswordReset(),
            ], false));
        }

        return (new MailMessage)
            ->subject(Lang::get('Reset Password Notification'))
            ->line(Lang::get('You are receiving this email because we received a password reset request for your account.'))
            ->action(Lang::get('Reset Password'), $url)
            ->line(Lang::get('This password reset link will expire in :count minutes.', ['count' => config('auth.passwords.' . config('auth.defaults.passwords') . '.expire')]))
            ->line(Lang::get('If you did not request a password reset, no further action is required.'));
    }

Example: Your current domain is http://localhost:8000,

web.php

Route::get('reset','ResetController@test')->name('test');

route('test') will return http://localhost:8000/reset

Yes I am trying this in local.

So the base url in reset password link will always follow the domain and not the APP_URL or url?
