Laravel 5.8 showing 404 Not Found errors - laravel-5

Question

I change the index.php file path public to root. After adding a .htaccess file in the root path (laravel 5.7) every page working fine. But in laravel 5.8 when I click another page, it's showing 404 Not Found.
My .htaccess file is below.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
#Send request via index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d``
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

Answer 1

The content of a Laravel .htaccess file should look like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews -Indexes
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Your webroot has to be set to the /public directory. Don't try to search for other solutions that move the index.php and .htaccess file from /public to the root directory of your Laravel application. There is absolutely no reason why you want to move the webroot from /public to /. index.php sits in /public for a reason. If your webhost does not offer the ability to move the web root to another directory switch your hoster.

Answer 2

It might be that you have created your folder as Example and trying to access it via example
ie
localhost/Example/public
yet accessing it like
localhost/example/public
