Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR while Laravel migrate - php

Question

When I run php artisan migrate on my local server (running by php artisan serve) I get the following error:
[ErrorExeption]
Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR
I tried also php artisan migrate --database db_name, output is like this:
[InvalidArgumentExeption]
Database [db_name] not configured.
My app/config/local/database.php looks like following:
'connections' => array(
'mysql' => array(
'driver' => 'mysql',
'host' => 'localhost', // also tried 127.0.0.1
'database' => 'db_name',
'username' => 'root',
'password' => 'mypassword',
'charset' => 'utf8',
'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
'prefix' => '',
)
)
I'm sure MySQL works, I checked it via command line and phpMyAdmin.
Also I included HostnameLookups On inside my httpd.conf, then restarted apache, but nothing helps.
I use Laravel 4.2, Debian.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
P.S. Sorry for my English:)
UPD:
Output of php artisan env is Current application environment: local
UPD2:
I created simple route:
Route::get('/test', function() {
return $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];
});
It returns ::1, but when I execute echo $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]; in php interactive mode (php -a) I get a Notice: Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR

Answer 1

When you get an artisan error, that error has possibly nothing to do with the command currently tried to run with artisan, but with some any other coding error you recently made. Search in your code for any recent reference to REMOTE_ADDR.

Answer 2

If you haven't done so, make sure you're accessing SERVER_ADDR using the $_SERVER array to obtain the value of SERVER_ADDR, which is an element of this array.
$_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'];
If that doesn't work, it may mean that your server doesn't provide that information.
From PHP.net:
There is no guarantee that every web server will provide any of these; servers may omit some, or provide others not listed here.
