Laravel workers not reading .env changes
Heads up! This article was written over 8 years ago. While it may still be helpful, please verify any information, as my perspectives and practices may have evolved.
When using Redis caching in Laravel (5.3), make sure that you manually delete bootstrap/cache/config.php
if you want Redis to start being used and your artisan cache:clear
commands to have any effect.
I spotted this because my workers werenβt picking up changes to my .env
file.
