I just freed / cleared the laravel.log file in the storage/logs folder.

Also clearing cache& sessions folders in storage/framework folder can help.

It just cleared the error and the login page was loaded again !

The main issue is laravel.log file. For me the file size has grown upto 24G, clearing the file made everything fine.

Use command sudo truncate -s 0 <filename> to clear it.

This is because your server HDD is full or almost Full.

Check by this command

df -h

This will show the stats. figure out where you are storing large chunk of files and delete them.

clear the following folders in laravel project folder

rm -rf storage/framework/cache/
// this will logout presently logged in users
rm -rf storage/framework/sessions/
rm -rf storage/framework/sessions/views/

freeup this file

> storage/logs/laravel.log

you need to clear the cache by running this command

php artisan cache:clear

General / permanent for this is to increase the disk space of the system. or making the cron job to clear the laravel log file at every certain period of time.

this did not work for me... only created more errors – Ren44 Apr 09 '19 at 13:27
when I removed all of these sessions, it then could not find any so I had to flush all my cache to start from scratch which I think you should add in your answer. If the user does not flush their cache they will get errors can't the laravel app cannot find session variables inside these directories. – Ren44 Apr 15 '19 at 16:51

You are getting this error because there is no space on your server. When you will clean server storage it will be fixed.

This (old) question already contains multiple answers. Can you explain (by editing your answer) where your answer differs from the other answers? – 7uc1f3r Sep 15 '20 at 12:48
