Laravel: enabling debug toolbar

First of all, let me state very clearly that I'm completely new to Laravel; I may be missing something totally basic.

I'm trying to get the debug toolbar from https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-debugbar to work. I've followed the instructions and have done the following: 

composer require barryvdh/laravel-debugbar:1.x

then add 

'Barryvdh\Debugbar\ServiceProvider',

to 

app/config/app.php

and then

php artisan debugbar:publish

My "debug" flag in app/config/app.php is set to true.

The docs on github say that the debugbar output should be injected just before the HTML body tag, however I see no debugbar output and no relevant code when I do a "view source" in my browser.

What am I missing or doing wrong?

As mentioned, one problem could be folder/file permissions for app/storage.

Other solution could be the name of your environment folder.

Unless you are doing unit testing you shouldn't name your environment folder 'testing' (config/testing) or 'tests'.

The problem is most likely, that your app/storage folder is not writable. Check the laravel log for errors. This solved it for me.
