Passport laravel createToken Personal access client not found

Question

After setup of passport, I have configured and created a controller to manage Register-Login- and - access to a resource for a general external post request. I do not need for a specific client. But when I try to create a token in the registration or in the login:

$tokenObj=$user->createToken('APPLICATION')->accessToken;

The error is:

RuntimeException: Personal access client not found. Please create one. in file C:xampp7.1htdocspassportvendorlaravelpassportsrcClientRepository.php on line 94 Stack trace: 1. RuntimeException->() C:xampp7.1htdocspassportvendorlaravelpassportsrcClientRepository.php:94 2. LaravelPassportClientRepository->personalAccessClient() C:xampp7.1htdocspassportvendorlaravelpassportsrcPersonalAccessTokenFactory.php:71

How can I solve it?

You have to create access clients first. It is documented here. An access client it not the same than a user token, you can have one access client and many users with different passwords and tokens.
