troubleshooting a couple small laravel errors. First one = “belongs-to-many” database lookup error. It was from a view trying to show old data that was missing (IE we had a data set present, then half of it was deleted and the site did not gracefully degrade to still show the view). The fix for this was to just purge the rest of the data (it happened to be test data so that was fine). Now since a user can’t input incomplete data into the view the page should be good to go.
then we had a contact form timing out a “swiftmailer” error. We had the .env file on port 465 but needed 587, and then we noticed there were a couple things hard coded in config > mail.php that were from a previous project. We updated this mail file to the correct info, and also made the needed changes in the .env file so that in the future that file can quickly override the mail.php file for ease of updating.
BadMethodCallException] This cache store does not support tagging. Laravel file and database drivers doesn’t support tags.
to fix find the cache drive in .env file and update it to:
CACHE_DRIVER=array
