“The page has expired due to inactivity” – Laravel 5.5

by

If you’re coming to this answer directly from a search, make sure you have already added the csrf token to your form with {{ csrf_field() }} like the OP.

If you have your session driver set to file:

May have something to do with the storage_path not being writable. This is where it stores session data regarding tokens if you’re using file based sessions. The can be verified with is_writable(config('session.files'))

For the OP, the session driver was set to array. Array is for testing only. Since data is not persisted, it will not be able to compare the token on the next request.

The array driver is used during testing and prevents the data stored
in the session from being persisted.

https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/session#configuration

Check config/session.php

Lastly, an issue I just had, we had a project which has the session domain and secure settings in config/session.php but the development site was not using HTTPS (SSL/TLS). This caused this generic error since sessions.secure was set to true by default.
