!! To enable public access to previous requests, set debugbar.storage.open to true in your config, or enable DEBUGBAR_OPEN_STORAGE if you did not publish the config. !!

[Astriel]

Hello there,

I'm using Laravel debugbar since a while, and I wanted to debug API requests on my pre-production environment.

The problem is that whatever I'm trying, when clicking on the folder, I have the following message :

!! To enable public access to previous requests, set debugbar.storage.open to true in your config, or enable DEBUGBAR_OPEN_STORAGE if you did not publish the config. !!

The config file is published, and the enabled value is to true.

I'm using Laravel Framework 9.52.0, PHP 8.1.18, and Laravel debugbar > 3.9.

Did you clear the cache?

[Astriel]

Hello @barryvdh

Yes, I've tried :

php artisan route:clear
php artisan route:cache
php artisan config:clear
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan view:clear
php artisan optimize
composer dump-autoload

I see that the debugbar is storing files into storge/debugbar, but sounds like Chrome is unable to read / load them ? No error in the console. Problem is here on localhost + staging server. Wanted to debug the staging server, but can't get info. Problem is also existing on the updated Laravel 10 version of my current project.

Did you set true on .env DEBUGBAR_OPEN_STORAGE propertie? https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-debugbar/blob/27b088aaad2adba74a7a73a47cb8d11277b551e3/config/debugbar.php#L40

[barryvdh]

Can you post your config?

[Astriel]

@erikn69 on the current version I have (Laravel 9), I don't have this config value.

@barryvdh here is what I have :

Did you set true on .env DEBUGBAR_OPEN_STORAGE propertie?

You have to update your .env file with DEBUGBAR_OPEN_STORAGE=true

on the current version I have (Laravel 9), I don't have this config value.

I have not mentioned anything about the config file, I am talking about the .env file

Also upgrade that config file

[Astriel]

@erikn69 Thank you so much. Somehow, my config file was not up to date with the latest version of the package. I've modified the config file, and edited the .env, did a php artisan config:clear and everything is working again.

[Astriel]

Problem is still here on the staging environment, and can't solve it as I did for the local version.

[erikn69]

Clear config cache

[czuniga9]

For anyone else with this issue, delete the config/debugbar.php file then run the following to generate a new one:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=Barryvdh\\Debugbar\\ServiceProvider
