Where does php+laravel reads db connection string because runtime defaulting to user id not defined anywhere...

I am hosting my php+laravel rest API application in azure app service (windows). The app server comes with 'mysql in app' (build into it). I am able access the mysql database through myphpadmin. I can see there were two predefined users, one is root and another one is azure. To connect to database using myphpadmin, it uses azure user id.

In my application in .env I have DB_USERNAME set to azure and in database.php, if the user id is not found in config default it is set to default to 'azure'. Also in azure app server's app setting I have all the connection strings defined and there as well, I am using azure as the DB_USERNAME.

But when I ran postman to one of the end point, I noticed, the end point is failing because of "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'". I am really confused where would my application uses root as the username instead of azure.

Thanks

Remember to run php artisan config:cache command when you change any data in env

laravel always read config data from its cache.

so if your .env credentials are changed in server you also have to cache again that credentials

also make sure that your database config file reading all the credentials from .env by default.

Example:

'mysql' => array(

            'driver'    => 'mysql',

            'host'      => env('DB_HOST','localhost'),

            'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE','billing'),

            'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME','root'),

            'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', '1234'),

            'charset'   => 'utf8',

            'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',

            'prefix'    => '',

        )

Note:

If you execute the config:cache command during your deployment
process, you should be sure that you are only calling the env function
from within your configuration files. Once the configuration has been
cached, the .env file will not be loaded and all calls to the env
function will return null.

You also need to configure it not just in .env as @EmtiazZahid has suggested to you, and you must restart your server each time you do any configuration in .env
