Latest Update v 0.13.1 - 500 Server Error

[Ja50n-Kru]

@alexjustesen Hi, I just updated to v0.13.1 and immediately cannot access the dashboard. I get 500 server error. Looking at the logs, the container starts up ok, but I get this error as the first log after I try to access the dashboard:

[2023-10-04 22:52:54] production.ERROR: No application encryption key has been specified. {"exception":"[object] (Illuminate\Encryption\MissingAppKeyException(code: 0): No application encryption key has been specified. at /var/www/html/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Encryption/EncryptionServiceProvider.php:79)
22:52:54
[stacktrace]

It does seem to be running, though, as a test was pushed to my influxdb.

Is it just me, or an issue with the latest build?

V0.13.0 was working perfectly before. Any tips to get back up and running?

Do a search in issues for app key or check out the docs. FAQ has how to resolve this issue.

Thanks. I did multiple searches on my phone and nothing came up - I must have had a filter on somehow! Setting the persistent key solved it.

.env file data is not readed correctly!
adding same APP_KEY from .env to Docker build as Var Fix the problem.
Also key of telegram is not working from .env file

@alexjustesen
it seems like all data from .env file is not readed at all in latest version
like APP_KEY, telegram,Email .
all this data now should be added as ENV vars in docker or will be fixed?

After this morning update I have the same problem: 500 server error.
My installation use sqlite and I would like to maintain it.
what I've to do to resolve this problem?
thank you.

[mircotronchin]

resolved now with this procedure:
docker exec -ti speedtest-tracker /bin/bash
php artisan key:generate --show
copy the result and redeploy the container vith this env variable: -e APP_KEY=base64:24iYXcWXDoC......... note: base64 must be included.

tks.

After these steps I receive the error: Unsupported cipher or incorrect key length when looking in debug mode.

[Ja50n-Kru]

You need to do as the FAQ says. Paste the response to the command in the APP Key variable.

For those who faced the same issue as me the "base64:" needs to be included not just the hash.

APP_KEY environment variable added to the Docker Compose file using the value read from the .env file fixed the 500 server error for me. Thank you!
