Hi

As per the instruction in other topic i have set the “ALLOW\_FOREVER\_SESSION” to true and then run the “php artisan config:clear” and php artisan cache:clear command as well as also cleared the system wide cache from the admin . After that when i tried to print the environment using the “http://{my-host}/api/v2/system/environment” is still showing false. HELP

Hi @Praveen_BM_Reddy,

Make sure you uncomment the variable by deleting the # in front of it. Then save the .env file and clear your config with `php artisan config:clear`.
