updated:

I think the problem could be with the form's action. Try changing it to `{{ url('add-post-new') }}` or something equivalent, instead of `http://localhost/laravel/public/add-post-new`. — John Bupit, Aug 14 '15 at 10:40
You also don't seem to have `` in the form. I'm sure it's explained in one of the tutorials you read. — John Bupit, Aug 14 '15 at 10:42
@JohnBupit.i also tried blade template token that also not working — scott, Aug 14 '15 at 10:43
Can you post what you tried, and the error you get when you try it? — John Bupit, Aug 14 '15 at 10:43
@JohnBupit. in question alreadt included my blade template form and instead of that token i have added many stackoverflow user answers but every time run i get same token mismatch error — scott, Aug 14 '15 at 10:46
I have the same error today, it's working fine on my development env but when I push it to the staging server it throws me this error, I have regenerate the key from artisan, and delete all files in sessions folder in storage with no luck !! it's driving me crazy. I'm using the From:: facade so the hidden input of token is there. — Iliyass Hamza, Aug 14 '15 at 11:41
@tester Did you ever find a solid reason and solution for this issue? — tread, Oct 28 '15 at 22:16

This may help someone. Check your php files that not start with empty line or space! It cost me much trouble. Including that above!

Thanks. I had the same issue and it turned out to be caused by an empty space before the opening – Daniel Kratohvil Nov 28 '15 at 18:56
Oh lord. I have been googling around for like 1 hour and THIS was the error! A stupid little space in routes.php. I was going crazy here. Thanks a LOT. – Myone Feb 12 '16 at 09:51

try adding this line after opening a form

<input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token()}}"/>

except tokenmismatch exception, is everything working fine? and is there any special reason you providing form action like that instead using laravel default action rule? what if you just do /add-post-new in form action? what does it result? – Sid Aug 14 '15 at 10:58

Suddenly I am getting this exception.

Then restarting and clean cache works for me.

To clear the cache use :php artisan cache:clear

I had this painful error and this is what I did to fix it: 1. Go to \Http\Controllers\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken.php 2. In the protected $except add your route to be excluded from this verification. Example:

protected $except = [
        'user*'
    ];

And if you still get this error, add this function below the protected $except

public function handle($request, Closure $next) {

$regex = '#' . implode('|', $this->except) . '#';

if ($this->isReading($request) || $this->tokensMatch($request) || preg_match($regex, $request->path())) {
    return $this->addCookieToResponse($request, $next($request));
}

throw new TokenMismatchException;

}

And I think that's it. I hope to help someone.

This is not a good way of fixing it, in fact it's no fix at all. The error shouldnt appear, but this is just a way of saying " Hey let's not check our form at all". — killstreet, May 31 '16 at 17:40
