``` projectname/app/vendor/laravel/socialite/src/ ``` and for both folders, One and Two... ***<u>Replace set with put</u>***, in the AbstractProvider.php file for the redirect method i.e.
public function redirect()
{
$state = null;
if ($this->usesState()) {
//change here
$this->request->session()->set('state', $state = $this->getState());
}
return new RedirectResponse($this->getAuthUrl($state));
}
public function redirect()
{
$state = null;
if ($this->usesState()) {
//new statement
$this->request->session()->put('state', $state = $this->getState());

To test the role based authentication setup, start up the server and login with one of these.
email : api_user@example.com
password : secret // the password is literally 'secret'
email : auth_user@example.com
password : secret // the password is literally 'secret'
email : admin@example.com
password : secret // the password is literally 'secret'

Replace the Mail configuration with your credentials either from google or some other emailing platform, the configurations are in the .env file.
-
cd into the project directory in the terminal and run the code below
``` php artisan queue:listen --tries 3 --timeout 30 ```
so mailing can work in a somewhat asynchronous manner,so as not to block the page.
