Laravel - 419 issues when Submit Form - laravel

I have problems when submitting a form in Laravel application. It reported 419 error.
My code:
<form action="login" method="POST">
<input id="csft_pass" type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">
.....
</form>
I tried fixing it:
<form action="login" method="POST">
#csrf
.....
</form>
But still, error 419
With the above code still running normally, suddenly there was an error today
I tried many ways like php artisan cache:clear but still not solve the issue.
My Laravel version: 5.8
UPDATE: I tried a lot of solutions on stackoverflow but still can't solve it. I think that because the application's session has something wrong

After form tag use csrf_field.
{{ csrf_field() }}
And if you are using ajax you may pass csrf token on meta tag like.
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">

You can use the csrf_field helper to generate the token field:
<form method="POST" action="/login">
#csrf
...
</form>
OR
<input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">
It doesn't work, then Refresh the browser cache and now it might work.
Why required: Refresh the browser cache
When we update our application, a browser may still use old files. If you don’t clear your cache, Old files can access problems when you apply.
For more details open link :- Error - 419 Sorry, your session has expired

With the above code still running normally, suddenly there was an error today
This makes me suspect the error occurs only when the form was opened for more than two hours (that's the default of lifetime in config/session.php) before submitting.
If that's the case, you could set a value of more than 120 minutes as lifetime or do something in frontend to keep the session alive, such as some custom JavaScript (for single forms) as described in the selected answer to this thread or Laravel Caffeine (for whole apps)

Replace these lines
<input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">

Laravel page expired 419 only sometimes

I have a view in my Laravel application that has a form with the #csrf inside. The problem is that I faced the 419 Page expired exception only sometimes. When I refreshed the page, the login page appeared and after login, a few times the form submission was done successfully but again, 419 occurred.
I saw the other topics. All of them told that the solution is adding the #CSRF directive to the form.
But in my special case, the #CSRF exists.
Help me please.
Update
Here is a part of my source code. It's a simple html form with the #CSRF inside it.
<form method="POST" action="/settingUrl">
#csrf
<input type="text" name="myfield" />
<input type="submit" value="save" />
</form>

Laravel 7 Auto logout when session expired

I would like to logout the page and redirected to the login page when the session expires in Laravel 7. Can any one please help me to do this? Thank you
There is normally this functionality implemented in Laravel. You need a POST request to the '/logout' route with (and therefore a csrf field in your request).
Usually you have in your blade a hidden form for that and a button or a link (it depends on what you use) that activates the sending of the form (with javascript).
For example, in the basic template of laravel we have this:
The form that is hidden:
<form id="logout-form" action="{{ route('logout') }}" method="POST" style="display: none;">
#csrf
</form>
The link used here to allow the user to log out:
<a href="#" onclick="event.preventDefault(); document.querySelector('#logout-form').submit();">

laravel page expired after being idle for long time

I have a website, and users are complaining they got Page Expired after being idle and if they refresh the website it is showing Page Expired. I tried searching and what I'm seing is Page Expired because of the #csrf but in my case I think it's not the problem.
It's working fine, but being idle for a long time is resulting in Page Expired
How can I prevent this?
Laravel version: 7.x
Server: Apache
EDIT:
Now I understand, that if the user is idle for a long time, the session is expired and the laravel is logging out the user. But in my logout it is a POST method as default of Laravel that's why it's page expired because of the token from #csrf
Logout:
<a class="dropdown-item" href="{{ route('logout') }}"onclick="event.preventDefault();
document.getElementById('logout-form').submit();">
{{ __('Logout') }}
</a>
<form id="logout-form" action="{{ route('logout') }}" method="POST" style="display: none;">
#csrf
</form>
first of all make sure you put csrf_token in your form
then you can follow:
as much as i know it is ok that laravel does this after being inactive for a long time
it is because some security problem.
but if you dont want it for some routes you can exclude your route (NOT RECOMMENDED DUE TO SECURITY) in :
app/Http/Middleware/VerifyCsrfToken.php:
protected $except = [
'your/route'
];
i didnt do it myself. test it and see it works or not but it should

I am getting 404 not found error while the route exisits

I am using Laravel to build my todo app.
In the web.php routes file i have added this route:
Route::put('/tasks/changecat', 'TaskController#changeCat');
and i am calling this route from a form in a .blade.php file like so:
<form action="tasks/changecat" id="change-cat-form" class="d-none" method="POST">
#method('PUT')
#csrf
<input type="text" name="task" id="task-input">
<input type="text" name="category" id="category-input">
</form>
But when i try to submit the form on the browser i get 404 not found
I tried to use postman and i have included the csrf token in the headings, i get a 200 ok but i get redirected to the login page.
what do you think it's causing the problem?
I fixed this when i changed the method to PATCH.
Route::patch('/tasks/changecat', 'TaskController#changeCat');
It turns out that i should use PATCH because i needed to change a part of the resource and not all of it.
Using PATCH will change the 'updated_at' column value automatically too.

CSRF error in laravel

I have a problem in Laravel . when over and over submit Form with post method and somtimes I get error and see expire error that related to CSRF
anybody knows how can I manage this error that display not in site and instead of redirect to any page else ?
Laravel makes it easy to protect your application from cross-site request forgery (CSRF).
Just add #csrf blade directive inside the form to avoid getting csrf token error.
<form method="POST" action="/profile">
#csrf
...
</form>
The directive puts something like this
<input type="hidden" name="_token" value="CzK6peomC6Pnnqdm4NsxpdGSH6v1evDnbN12oL" >
Read more about it in the laravel documentation here https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/csrf
Regarding the expiration of the token I think you might want to handle the error this way https://gist.github.com/jrmadsen67/bd0f9ad0ef1ed6bb594e
Also, there's a package which helps the forms keep awake.
https://github.com/GeneaLabs/laravel-caffeine
I hope that helps.
Laravel 5 using Blades templates, it's easy.
Add csrf toke in your blade file
{{ csrf_token() }}
If you are using Laravel 5.6 then you need to add something like this in your code of the form
#csrf
Check in detail about: CSRF Laravel
