title: Laravel 'Whoops' error in Public after fresh Install
body: <p>I installed Laravel locally on MAMP and navigated to the correct localhost location, and for some reason am getting <code>Whoops, looks like something went wrong.</code></p>
  
  <p>The route.php looks fine:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Route::get('/', function()
  {
      return View::make('hello');
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is the error I'm getting:</p>
  
  <pre><code>base64_decode() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Apparently it's caused by this (arrow) in <code>/bootstrap/compiled.php</code>:</p>
  
  <pre><code> protected function getJsonPayload($payload)
      {
     ----&gt;      $payload = json_decode(base64_decode($payload), true);
         if (!$payload || $this-&gt;invalidPayload($payload)) {
              throw new DecryptException('Invalid data.');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What am I missing in my new install to make this work?</p>
