No application encryption key has been specified.

Please setup app.key configuration before you run application. You can run php artisan key:generate to generate new app key.

I have already regenerated key and it didn't help! In addition, I have run all the following commands:

composer dump-autoload
php artisan clear-compiled
php artisan config:clear
php artisan route:clear
php artisan view:clear

php artisan optimize
php artisan config:cache
php artisan route:cache
php artisan view:cache
php artisan cache:clear

These didn't helped me either.
