I am new to laravel, and I have installed a fresh copy of laravel. My project root directory is located in E:/xampp/htdocs/myapp and I want this to load on myapp.com in browser how exactly to do this ? I am using laravel 5.2 and xampp for my project.
It is possible with enabling virtual host on your xampp settings. First of all you need to visit E:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\https-vhosts.conf and make some edits. Edit httpd-vhosts.conf file in your favorite editor and add the below code at end of the httpd-vhosts.conf file.
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "E:/xampp/htdocs/yourprojectfolder/public"
ServerName yourdesirename.com
</VirtualHost>
After this you need open notepad as administrator and edit hosts file
(C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts)
Note : If hosts file is not showing in the target directory you need to change the select box to 'Show All Files'
and add 127.0.0.1 localhost yourdesirename.com at the end of hosts file, once done now open your browser and type yourdesirename.com and your project will dance live there.
If you're using Laravel 5.2 Valet is a pretty nice tool.

hi I have many sites that I want to test on local, so when I edit the files on auto virtual host files under Apache->sites-enabled->file name, after reloading laragon, the file resets to its original default contents, ex-
Original
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/laragon/www/cast.see.tech/public"
ServerName cast.see.tech.test
ServerAlias *.cast.see.tech.test
<Directory "C:/laragon/www/cast.see.tech/public">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.101:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/laragon/www/cast.see.tech/public"
ServerName cast.see.tech.test
ServerAlias *.cast.see.tech.test
<Directory "C:/laragon/www/cast.see.tech/public">
AllowOverride All
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
I cannot save any rules, any code, it comes back to its default original content once I restart laragon server. I am using windows 11, but the same problem I face on windows 10 also.
I tried uninstalling and installing back, but still no luck. Currently i am using latest version of laragon 5.0.0 210523, I also tried downgrading the version but still the same problem. Is it a windows issue or do I need to do something else. Please help me with this issue.
Each project has each own Virtual Host file located in:
For Apache:
{LARAGON_ROOT}\etc\apache2\sites-enabled\auto.{project}.test.conf
For Nginx:
{LARAGON_ROOT}\etc\nginx\sites-enabled\auto.{project}.test.conf
Content of a .conf file is auto generated. If you have a specific project which has modified content, just remove the auto. prefix from config file names eg : auto.example.test.conf => example.test.conf , Laragon will keep the content of the .conf file intact.
Virtual Host content is configurable, you can change it by modifying the template in:
{LARAGON_ROOT}\usr\tpl\VirtualHost.tpl
https://laragon.org/docs/pretty-urls.html
Laragon uses a template to auto-generate the virtual hosts.
On windows, the file is located at C:\laragon\usr\tpl\VirtualHost.tpl, assuming you installed it in C:\laragon.
Just edit this file and make the changes you want.
Keep in mind that all your sites will now use the same configurations.
One change I personally make is to remove the *. from ServerAlias, as I use subdomain format for my sites. Before I remove it, subdomain.example.com would always redirect to example.com.
My OXID store starts on localhost with http://localhost/source, but I just want it to start with http://localhost.
You need to change the DocumentRoot setting in your httpd.conf file. You also have to change the corresponding Directory Setting in the same file. Both should point to the "source" directory. How do I change the root directory of an Apache server?
In your Oxid installation you then have to change the "sShopURL" setting in config.inc.php to http://localhost/, and additionally you have to change "RewriteBase /source" to "RewriteBase /" in your .htaccess file (both of these files are in the "source" directory of your shop).
Remember that you have to remove the write protection from the config.inc.php file in order to edit it. One more Tip: if you are using xampp you can edit the httpd.conf file and restart apache in the xampp control panel.
Why I got 404 - File Not Found when I run CI.
I am using xampp 8.0.0, I already put my CI folder to htdocs and also I've changed the config/app baseurl to http://localhost/framework-4.0.4/.
When I open it to browswer and click public it just redirected to 404.
enter image description here
You should setup a virtual host in your xampp for your project.
To do that for this codeigniter projects, open the the Apache httpd-vhosts.conf file which are located in C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf, Added below lines of code at the end of the file.
using the example codeigniter-blog.local
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/framework-4.0.4/public"
ServerName codeigniter-blog.local
Now, Open the hosts file which are located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts, Added below code into this file at the end.
127.0.0.1 codeigniter-blog.local
restart the xampp server.
If you open the browser and navigate http://codeigniter-blog.local, if you are getting welcome page, that means everything fine otherwise you'll get intl package is not enabled.
I am currently trying to run the program after I have successfully created all the necessary CRUD files. Note that I am following this tutorial here.
However, I am facing problem in trying to run the sites from my cmd. I tried taskmanager.dev but Chrome returned 'This site can’t be reached'.
May I know, is the any specific ways for me to run the site on xampp?
I am using Windows.
Please help. Thank You.
I am quite sure the guy who made the tutorial is using valet.
Just use php artisan serve and you will be able to connect to your site on localhost.
But if you really want to use taskmanager.dev do the following:
Open the hosts file, which is lotcated # C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
Add 127.0.0.1 taskmanager.dev at the bottom
Make sure you follow their installation tutorial closely. It sounds like you may not have configured the server correctly.
For me, I have to edit my VHosts file which is in:
C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra
And to edit my hosts file I need to go to:
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
If all else fails you can always just run php artisan serve in bash to launch your app.
But I would recommend going through these instructions again:
XAMPP Virtual Host
We need to configure XAMPP Virtual Host to set the document root to correct directory of laravel project and to also assign a name to the project by which we will be accessing it in browser.
Navigate and open file /Applications/XAMPP/etc/httpd.conf file and uncomment the line that includes the virtual host file.
# Virtual hosts
Include etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Navigate and open file /Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf and include following Virtual host entry in this file.
# VirtualHost for TASKMANAGER.DEV
<VirtualHost taskmanager.dev:80>
DocumentRoot "C:\xampp\htdocs\taskmanager\public"
ServerAdmin taskmanager.dev
<Directory "C:\xampp\htdocs\taskmanager">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
With this entry our apache is listening to taskmanager.dev, but we also have to edit our hosts file to include an entry for the new domain.
Edit file /etc/hosts and add following entry to that file.
127.0.0.1 taskmanager.dev
Restart your apache and access taskmanager.dev on your browser you should be able to see this screen.
Chrome 63 now enforces .dev domains via HTTPS. Follow this article : https://laravel-news.com/chrome-63-now-forces-dev-domains-https to know more.
I've changed to .test for my valet domains. Hope this helps. Thank you.
So I have been following a tutorial on how to do this.
I zipped everything but my public folder.
uploaded and then unzipped files in the folder before the /www folder.
Uploaded the .env file separately since no hidden file got uploaded.
put public folder into my subdomain folder. I editted the index.php appropriately to go to the right directory.
Now I am getting a blank page on the site. Into my SSH I see the files including artisan but when I do php artisan nothing happens. Even when I do php artisan tinker nothing happens.
I'm not sure what is going on... What is wrong?
Laravel public folder serves the content of your website. the entire framework and vendor directory are behind this path. so public users cannot access all those folders its primary security for the framework.
It means on server you don't upload the entire framework to public_html folder and don't point the domain to public folder of laravel without setting proper symlink.
This point can be done with symlink creation in servers. for example you can edit the host file in Linux/Windows and set the project domain. something like homestead.app. Then in your apache configuration simply set this project domain to its physical path. like below.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName homestead.app
DocumentRoot /home/User/Development/homestead/public
<Directory />
Require all granted
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
So you can access the project in browser like homestead.app for more details check this link.
Hope its clear now.
I recommend putting all of your code together then creating a sym link to your public folder in your subdomain folder.
