[DB-009]

I tried to get basic auth working but im getting errors now any idea why? where you able to get it working i get

"The page has expired due to inactivity.

Please refresh and try again."

Did you run php artisan key:generate?
Also, make sure you have added this to your .env file:
ADMIN_ROLE_NAME=administrator
CLIENT_ROLE_NAME=client

Otherwise, after running php artisan make:auth you can login from the front-end http://url/login

hmm I must have done something wrong the first time around seems to work now! thanks! I think it was because I manually copied the auth controllers and views in then ran make auth first time. it works!
