We have an added domain on a shared hosting. This domain is not the main hosting domain, but an added one that points to directory that matches the domain. The app was installed with a one click installer inside a dir like
ourdomain.com and Laravel public directory is accessed like
ourdomain.com/public
I need to use .htaccess to make /public the root of ourdomain.com and at the same time /public, so the project files and folders are protected as well. Can someone help show me how to do this with .htaccess?
If you do not have the access to change the settings in anything like CPANEL or similar then you can do it like this via .htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^ourdomain.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.ourdomain.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !public/
RewriteRule (.*) /public/$1 [L]

What am I doing
Open FTP -> public_html -> laravel folder.
Copy all files from local directory to laravel folder
Open URL of the site and get this on the screen
https://i.stack.imgur.com/IbsvQ.png
Problem is simple, it opens directory, and not lead to index.php in public/ directory.
I tried everything I found in Google, like:
Move .htaccess file from /public to laravel directory and change it, like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^ ^$1 [N]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (\.\w+$) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ server.php
It works, but not completely, it load site, but it doesn't load .css and .js (static files) from public directory, which is normally, after I moved out .htaccess files, so I should change asset() everywhere in the project and add "public/", which doesn't look OK for me.
Instead of moving .htaccess I tried to edit index.php file, like most of the tutorials show:
require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';
to
require __DIR__.'/../laravel/vendor/autoload.php';
and
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';
to
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../laravel/bootstrap/app.php';
It doesn't work.
Is there a way to handle this, without edit asset() everywhere in my project ?
Option 1
The best way to deploy, if you do not have access to the ssh but the ftp is:
Copy and paste the project on the parent folder of public_html
Wait for the upload, I recommend you to separate in an appropiate mode your dependencies in order to no install devDependencies in your prod site (this also applies for your JS assets).
once the entire laravel site is uplodaded, then you should have to delete the public_html folder and then from public make a symlink this will create a reference from your public folder and apache will try to access to the reference associated with the new public_html symlink.
Option 2
If you have access to your server through SSH, then I strongly recommend you to check if you have git available on your server, then you would be able to pull your master branch (this should be prepared for production). And also create the symlink using command line.
Also if you have SSH you will be able to prepare your project as it should with the commands you need to make it work.
I think the best way to deploy on shared hosting is to create a project folder outside the public_html folder
And add all you project files there
Then move all the files in project public folder to public_html with laravel default htacess file
Now open the index.php file you have moved to public_html
And define a proper path to project director outside the public_html directory example
require __DIR__.'/../your_project/vendor/autoload.php';
Change all path like this.... I hope its helps you
I've uploaded the project on a shared hosting and it is showing the complete directory structure of the project.
I've searched for the solutions and changed my .htaccess file. This is my .htaccess file now:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
but it is still showing the same directory structure. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Laravel is not designed to be run on shared hosting. You'll have to manually change its structure to run it on shared hosting.
Follow this article: https://medium.com/laravel-news/the-simple-guide-to-deploy-laravel-5-application-on-shared-hosting-1a8d0aee923e
Though I will recommend to buy a private server for laravel.
I referred the CodeIgniter Site and also checked various sites for information on how to remove index.php file from Mac OS X 10.10. But still index.php is unavoidable. I need steps to remove index.php from CodeIgniter on Mac OS 10.10.
This is working:
localhost/jenny/Learn/index.php/about
This is not working:
localhost/jenny/Learn/about
As long as you are running apache the operating system should not make a difference in this case.
You need to create a .htaccess file within the your root web directory (this is the directory where the index.php file is located) and within the .htaccess file you will want to include the following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]
This will allow you to utilize the second url you have posted as it will determine if the requested resource is located within the webroot and if not then redirect to the index.php file without it needing to be included in the url.
If you are not running a different web server then the rewrite rule will be different but the principle is the same. Send all requests to index.php if not resource does not live in web root.
open path:/application/config/config.php
find : $config['index_page']='index.php'
replace : $config['index_page']=''
I am running laravel on a subdomain i.e. subdomain.mysite.com
I have setup my structure like this:
username
-public_html
--subdomain
---public
Basically, when I created my subdomain the path I set was subname/public so the subdomain points to the public folder. I have uploaded laravel to subname so when someone goes to the subdomain url it looks at the public folder and it shows the laravel You have arrived page.
Now when I browse to mysite.com/subname it gives me a forbidden page and when I browse to mysite.com/subname/public it shows the laravel you have arrive logo.
Is it safe to set-up laravel on a subdomain this way or am I exposing the app / model / controller folders etc?
Is this just very bad and should i move the laravel core files above public_html?
I hope this makes sense
Thanks
With proper Apache configuration (or any other server you use) and .htaccess ( in case of Apache) you can restrict the access to your core directories irrespective of where your files are located.
I do not know about your server configuration and which folders you have access to, but in case you have access to other directories, you can set up laravel in somewhere else other than under public_html and set up public directory to be visible, just like you did when setting up it as a sub-domain.
If you want to setup as a sub-folder under mysite.com you can keep the Laravel installation somewhere else, and provide symbolic link under public_html like this
ln -s /path/to/laravel/public /username/public_html/subdomain
In such case you need to add following line to .htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /subdomain # Add this line
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Hope this helps.
I'm starting a new Codeigniter project inside of Netbeans 7.3.1 and have the following set up for my file structure.
I have in the project properties set up as the web root is pointed to public_html inside of the text box. I also have this for my htaccess file as well as I have removed index.php from the ci config file.
My problem is that when I go to localhost/MyProject it still shows the foot folder and I don't know why.
Is there anyone that sees a mistake I have made somewhere.

-application
-system
-public_html

Out of the box Netbeans doesn't come with CodeIgniter support, but that can easily be solved by installing the appropriate plugin:
https://kenai.com/projects/nbphpci/pages/Home
Due to the specific structure of a CodeIgniter project telling Netbeans that a CodeIgniter project is just another php project won't work correctly.
The detailed procedure to install this plugin can be found on their Wiki or here. Usage is explained here.
I think that you will have to restart a new project and properly activate CodeIgniter support in the project setup wizard, and that should be it.
