"aws/aws-sdk-php-laravel": "~3.0" I am trying to properly setup a local environment and a production environment. I keep getting this error when trying to send mail on production server: (My .env file is gitignored and only exists locally)
production.ERROR: exception 'Aws\Exception\CredentialsException' with message 'Error retrieving credentials from the instance profile metadata server. Ran
php artisan vendor:publish My .env file look slike so, only with the keys:
