Hello,
Do the tokens from the laravel application change often? I have an application and if I go to any page, it just works (it uses javascript to retrieve information and gives with that a token parameter). So on every page it just works. Now if I go from one page (order page) to the next page (payment page), I get an tokenexception everytime when I do the javascript call. If I am checking with firebug the token from the 1st page is identical to the one on the 2nd page, so I'd expect it to be alright. But somehow I keep getting the error 500 tokenmismatch on line 68.
If I open the payment page directly, it just works perfectly. Is there anyway how I can debug when and where the tokens are being changed or so? I actually do see a 2nd session being created in the storage/framework/sessions directory. But I have no clue hay this happens. Any suggestions are welcome.
My session.php config:
Driver = File, Encrypt = False, Lifetime = 120, Secure = False, http_only = True
Are you sure you are passing it to the final page. Also the one stored in session may change between request, so treat each request as a brand new request. Edit: If you are using ajax see https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/ajax-post-request-not-working also
It is passed to the final page. But only when the final page opens. Then a javascript parameter is saved that is being used for the javascript calls. But it seems that somehow between the pageload and the javascript calls the token is being changed. But I have no idea why it changes. So do I have to change the javascript token value after each javascript call? Since I have no idea why the token gets changed inbetween and it gives me errors. Shouldn't tokens (/sessions) not just be longer active?
I stopped using the build in webserver on my development environment and started using Xampp as a webserver and load the project in that environment. For now that seems to have solved the problem. Otherwise I'll get back here. Thanks for takiung the time to answer jirdw
