Laravel 4 Mail :: queue没有使用正确的环境

Question

I've been working on this website for a while and just recently finished and wanted to "go live". I have two environments in my production server: staging and production. Both environments seem to work fine, each of them with their own configurations.

The weird problem I'm facing is when sending an email using Mail::queue, the views that are being picked up by the mail class are the ones in the staging environment and not the ones in production, which also seems to make the class think that it's in the staging environment. So all the URL's in the received email (all configured in the view to be like URL::to('route')) point to the staging environment instead of production. So if staging is like staging.domain.com and production www.domain.com, the links in my emails sent from the production environment are staging.domain.com (the contrary doesn't happen)

This does not occur with the rest of the links in the website, only with emails.

I haven't been able to figure this one out, and I was hoping someone around here can help me out!

Thanks!

PS: I've already tried clearing out the views in the storage folder, the cache using artisan cache:clear

Since there is no HTTP request associated with queued jobs, they must get the application url from a config setting. This config setting is the url key in the app.php configuration file.

My guess is that you have set the url key in the app/config/app.php file to staging.domain.com .

You can override configuration files per environment by creating a subdirectory in the app/config directory with the environment name. I prefer to leave the php files in the app/config directory alone, and make any config changes to environment specific config files.

As an example, one solution to your problem would be to create the following files (assuming your environment names are "staging" and "production"):

app/config/staging/app.php

return array(
    'url' => 'http://staging.domain.com',
);

app/config/production/app.php

return array(
    'url' => 'http://www.domain.com',
);

The problem was related to the supervisord configuration. Basically there was only one queue and it was the staging one.

Resolved the issue by updating the supervisord.conf with the production queue info.
