Laravel- Token Mismatch Exception on Ajax Request

Question

Like in the headline mentioned I get a token Mismatch Exception if I try to do ajax request.

The strange this is, I do have the csrf_token in my code.

In my <head> ... </head> i have added this line: <meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">

And above the ajax code I've got this code:

$.ajaxSetup({
    headers: {
        'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
    }
});

But I also tried to put the code into my ajax code. Like this:

        $.ajax({
                type: "post",
                url: "/sendAnswer",
                headers: {'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')},
                data: {'question': question, 'answer': answer},
                success: function (data) {

                },
                error: function (data) {

                }
        });

And I also tried this:

$.ajax({
        type: "post",
        url: "/sendAnswer",
        data: {'_token': "{{ csrf_token() }}", 'question': question, 'answer': answer},
        success: function (data) {

        },
        error: function (data) {

        }
});

Now everything I've tried, gave me a Token Mismatch Exception back.

The Javascript code you see is at the very bottom of my page.

the code that helped this guy in your duplicate link is allready in my code. Thats why it is so strange. I've got everything I need for the request. — PHPprogrammer42, Aug 14 '17 at 12:20

Alternatively you can add `xhrFields: { withCredentials: true }` if the token is being stored as a cookie — Dan Mason, Aug 14 '17 at 14:06
Check the rendered HTML source - is the token really there in your JS? Check browser devtools, is _token properly POSTed? — Don't Panic, Aug 14 '17 at 15:13
