I have upload my files to a new server and error occurres in this line

   if(empty($data['customer_id'])) -- Error in thisline

with message syntax error, unexpected '' (T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE), expecting '-' or identifier (T_STRING) or variable (T_VARIABLE) or number (T_NUM_STRING)

the data is comming from

public function store(Request $request)
{
    $data = $request->all();
    if(empty($data['customer_id']))
        $data['customer_id'] = Customer::create($data)->id;

If I change it to $data->customer_id it is not throwing error

What do you get if you run ```dd($request->all())``` ?, Let we know – Encang Cutbray Sep 09 '20 at 14:00
It is parse error – B L Praveen Sep 09 '20 at 14:09
Change ```empty()``` method to ```isset()``` – Encang Cutbray Sep 09 '20 at 14:11

It must be said though, that the code you've shown in the question does not, by itself, cause this syntax error. Are certain that's a) the correct bit of the code, and b) the correct version of the code? – ADyson Sep 09 '20 at 15:15
I changed to isset() it show same error. If I change it to $data->customer_id it is not throwing error – B L Praveen Sep 09 '20 at 15:20
Try with double quote `$data["customer_id"]` – STA Sep 09 '20 at 17:07
I tried with double quote $data["customer_id"] no change in the response it is again showing the error message – B L Praveen Sep 10 '20 at 06:17
