Artisan team says: Dotenv values ​​containing spaces should be surrounded by quotation marks

Question

I am trying to find out the list of artisan command using php artisan list . and the command returns me the following error [Dotenv\Exception\InvalidFileException] Dotenv values containing spaces must be surrounded by quotes. What's wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You must remove all spaces from the .env file for the application to work again.

If you need to use spaces instead:

 VAR=some data 

Use quotation marks:

 VAR="some data" 

Answer 2

Check the .env file. You need to check the following:

• Any additional or unnecessary spaces
• If you have lines with spaces, make sure they are surrounded by quotation marks.

Example:

 varaible=123 Test 

Must be

 varaible="123 Test" 

Answer 3

if you use two words for the username or database name in .env, put it in double quotes.

Answer 4

Check env first.

If your value is a variable with a space, check the value in double quotes. Like

  MAIL_FROM_NAME="Sarvajanik School" 

If you use single quotation marks, then a possible error containing spaces must be enclosed in quotation marks.
