Laravel showing “Failed to clear cache. Make sure you have the appropriate permissions”

Question

Laravel was displaying to me \"Access denied for user \'homestead\'@\'localhost\' (using password: YES)\". One solution for this was clearing the cache and the config cache

Answer 1

First try:

Check if there is a "data" folder inside "storage/framework/cache/". If there is not, then create it manually. (create a new folder with name "data")

Option 2:

If there is a "data" folder inside "storage/framework/cache/". Remove ALL existing folders inside there.

Then final, running this:

php artisan cache:clear

This should fix this issue: "Failed to clear cache. Make sure you have the appropriate permissions."
