I'm new to homestead and I have encountered problems while installing it
I can't use
vagrant up
An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error
message, if any, is reproduced below. Please fix this error and try
again.
so I tried to install cloud base as I'm using Fedora 25 64 bit
https://atlas.hashicorp.com/fedora/boxes/25-cloud-base
and now I'm able to up my vagrant but once I try to ping my homestead.app
all packets are lost and also I can't access it
I'm running xampp in case it makes any differences
here is my /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
192.168.10.10 homestead.app
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
here is my homestead.yaml
ip: "192.168.10.10" memory: 2048 cpus: 1 provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/projects
to: /home/vagrant/projects
sites:
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/projects/demo/public
databases:
- demo
I suggest you to not use xampp with Homestead. Homestead comes with a full development environment including nginx server.
Install Homestead following this guide Laravel Homestead
Once installed and properly configured, run vagrant up, then vagrant ssh. Do not miss to configure your nginx server to serve your application.
Hope it helps.

I am having trouble setting up my laravel project on my mac. I have (As far as I can tell) set up the homestead.yaml config correctly within my Homestead directory:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 2
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/Documents/GitHub/project-darwin
to: /home/vagrant/code
sites:
- map: homestead.test
to: /home/vagrant/code/public
php: "7.2"
databases:
- homestead
After I have used vagrant up, on using vagrant ssh I can see my project inside of vagrant/code/project-darwin.
My hosts file is as follows:
##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
192.168.10.10 homestead.test
Which looks correct as is no different to what I normally do when running other laravel projects on virtualbox, however on going to my url, I get a 500 error and the same applies if I go directly to the ip (198.168.10.10).
A further thing I find suspicious is the following. When I use vagrant up, this is part of what shows in my terminal:
homestead-7: Waiting for machine to boot. This may take a few minutes...
homestead-7: SSH address: 127.0.0.1:2222
homestead-7: SSH username: vagrant
Should this ip be the same as the ip I supplied? Anyway, I have run out of ideas as to how to go about fixing this, any suggestions?
So it turns out my mac had auto selected . hyperv as my provider when I ran vagrant box add laravel/homestead, oh well..
In your Homestead.yaml config file you are doing the following:
Making a shared folder mapping project-darwin to /home/vagrant/code
folders:
- map: ~/Documents/GitHub/project-darwin
to: /home/vagrant/code
But under sites you are mapping the folder /home/vagrant/code/public to homestead.test, meaning when you are requesting homestead.test or the IP of your Vagrant Box, you are not calling upon project-darwin but rather the "empty" public folder.
sites:
- map: homestead.test
to: /home/vagrant/code/public
I would recommend either moving your code to the public folder or mapping sites to your desired destination.
Hope this helps :)
When i try to open web.app it doesnt work. But vagrant up running successfully. Hier is my Homestead.yarn file
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/www/
to: /home/vagrant/www
sites:
- map: web.app
to: /home/vagrant/www/web
databases:
- homestead
I'm using Mac OS.
laravel box : laravel/homestead (virtualbox, 1.1.0)
in hosts 127.0.0.1 web.app (192.168.10.10 and 127.0.0.1 both doesn't work)
vagrant and homestead are up to date. Any idea?
web.app:8000 doesn't work else
First on your homestead.yaml file, make the following changes
folders:
- map: ~/www/web
to: /home/vagrant/www/web
sites:
- map: web.app
to: /home/vagrant/www/web/public
Then go to your Homestead folder and do
vagrant reload --provision
After reloading do
vagrant up
Then edit the /etc/hosts file and add the following line
192.168.10.10 web.app
Now you should get laravel homepage when you hit web.app on your browser
I don't know why but my hosts file is ignored. Therefore i used just 192.168.10.10 instead web.app after 10 hour i fixed the problem. just deleted hosts file and created it again.
I installed homestead and laravel 5.3
Now I want to setup my homepage and access it locally. Therefore I created this YAML file:
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/Documents/Development/Source/MFServer
to: /home/vagrant/Development/Source/MFServer
sites:
- map: loc.medifaktor
to: /home/vagrant/Development/Source/MFServer/public
databases:
- homestead
and the hosts file:
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
192.168.10.10 loc.medifaktor
But when I access loc.medifaktor I get the error:
This site can’t be reached loc.medifaktor’s server DNS address could
not be found.
The folders: attribute is meant as a root folder for all your projects. Change it to:
- map: ~/Documents/Development/Source
to: /home/vagrant/Development/Source
Make sure your MFServer project is installed in the Source folder, so basically like your site mapping now says.
Then reload & provision homestead with vagrant reload --provision or homestead reload --provision if you've defined an alias.
If you now ssh into homestead, your project's source code should be available in /Development/Source/[project]
at the moment I am having a real nightmare trying to get Laravel Homestead to work. Usually when I have had this issue on my work machine I simply run vagrant provision however on my personal machine when I run vagrant provision nothing really happens it just hangs for a few seconds and then it is ready for another command.
Here is my setup Homestead.yaml:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/Projects
to: /home/vagrant/Projects
sites:
- map: helloworld.app
to: /home/vagrant/Projects/HelloWorld/public
databases:
- homestead
My host file:
##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
192.168.10.10 helloworld.app
When I run vagrant up I get no errors either. I just get No input file specified. when I visit the URL in my browser.
Has anybody had this issue before?
Thanks, Nick
Looks like there is a line break after the sites: parameter. If thats true, get rid of that and run vagrant provision again.
Make your app/storage writeable by your homestead user.
I do not know if this is the case or not but if you are starting / stoping VM via the GUI, it may behave differently. Using vagrant <command> is always better for things like halt etc.
Update:
Make sure nginx config in your VM mirrors what you have on your yaml config file for homestead. I mean the public is also pointed in the nginx configs so check files under etc/ngnx/sites-available/ and make sure root points to where it is supposed to.
Update app/storage permissions with chmod -R 777 app/storage
Try running homestead up --provision it is homestead provision not vagrant.
You can find more information here some of the tutorial vids might require a subscription but I know some stuff is free there. Just in case it might help.
I have followed instructions (https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/homestead) to set up laravel running in a Vagrant/Homestead box.
In the end, I should be able to the website from virtual machine by accessing homestead.app in browser on my host machine.
I´ve tried accessing in different ways, with and without specifying port 8000:
http://homestead.app - connection timeout
http://192.168.10.10 - connection timeout
http://localhost - connection timeout
http://127.0.0.1 - connection refused
After troubleshooting I have found that files are not synced to the virtual machine.
E:\homestead_local\Laravel\public\ contains index.php which I try to access. It is not synced to the VM.
I can´t find any error logs on server.
Also, on VM home/vagrant folder was empty after I did everything from instructions. I´m not sure if that was supposed to happen.
Instructions of what I did, keeping them short:
Installed Virtualbox 4.2 and Vagrant 1.8.1
Dowloaded vagrant box:
vagrant box add laravel/homestead
Installed Homestead 0.4.1
git clone https://github.com/laravel/homestead.git Homestead
Initialized homestead:
bash init.sh
Edited homestead.yaml file
Edited hosts file
Hosts file:
192.168.10.10 homestead.app
127.0.0.1 homestead.app
homestead.yaml file:
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 768
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: E:\HSprojects
to: /home/vagrant/Code
sites:
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/public
databases:
- homestead
Questions
After running "vagrant up" my CMD shows this:
....
default: Mounting shared folders...
default: /vagrant => E:/Homestead
Why is it showing E:/Homestead and not E:/HSProjects?
Is sharing between folders bidirectional? I can't find a clear answer on this, but I assume they are.
