Issue

I just deployed using Envoyer and there were no errors. However, I don't see the new version of the site in my browser.

I SFTP'd into the server, and sure enough the new files are there.

I SSH'd into the current directory and ran php artisan cache:clear but it didn't make a difference; I still see the old version of the site.

I've done tons of deployments and never encountered this before. How do I fix this?

Solution

From the symptoms you've listed, it sounds like OPcache is enabled.

Restart PHP with the following command:

sudo service phpX.X-fpm reload

Where X.X is the version of PHP you're using.
