Laravel showing "403 Forbidden" after assigning roles — works only after cache clear
Hi everyone,
Recently we are facing an issue in our Laravel application related to role-based access.
Scenario:
A new user registers successfully.
Admin assigns roles/permissions to that user (roles are correctly saved in the database).
When the user logs in immediately after the role assignment, the system shows a 403 Forbidden error.
If we run cache clear commands (php artisan cache:clear, config:clear, etc.), the same user can access the system without any issue.
So it seems like the roles/permissions cache is not refreshing automatically after role assignment, even though the database is updated correctly.
Environment
Laravel: 10/11
Using: Laratrust package
Roles and permissions stored correctly in DB
Issue resolved temporarily after clearing cache
Question What is the recommended way to ensure that permissions/roles are refreshed immediately after assigning roles to a user, without manually clearing the cache each time? Is there a best practice or event-based solution to reset permission cache automatically?
Thanks in advance!
