I am about to make my website goes live, but I face a problem that after uploading the entire website to the server from local machine I will need to change the config file and upload to the server, but when I run in local machine I need to reset the config again. I was wondering is there any other way solve this issue ?
Thank you.
If you are talking about changing your base url all the time.
First place this code below on index.php
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'])) {
$base_url = isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && strtolower($_SERVER['HTTPS']) == 'on' ? 'https' : 'http';
$base_url .= '://'. $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$base_url .= str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']), '', $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
} else {
$base_url = 'http://localhost/';
}
define('HTTP_SERVER', $base_url);
unset($base_url);
And then in the config.php
$config['base_url'] = HTTP_SERVER;
There is no shortcuts for this. It means when your project is in local you have to setup local, when live you have to setup for live.
Explanation and Tips
At the first time you code with project in local. So you have to
setup it correctly. Cz its will be same on live hosting.
So first time when you move all the files and folders to Live Host
you have to change, Database Configs, BaseUrl..
Then if you edit some thing on your localhost and you need to live
the site, Just move Controller, View, Model folders only. Do not move
the Config Folder(if any change do it manually).
So each and every time when you move the site, your config will be remain same at it is.
When you moving site to live, in root(outside application folder) edit index.php with following.
Change this to
define('ENVIRONMENT', 'development'); # shows all the run time errors
This
define('ENVIRONMENT', 'production'); # hide those and run the web smoothly, unless 500 or 404

I have a Larevel-app in a shared hosting. For the setup, I had to create a new folder in the main carpet of the hosting and copy the content of my public folder to public_html. I made changes in index.php and all working fine and nice. However, when a user upload a file that needs to be public, this file it saved in the myproject/storage/app/public path but not reflected in the public_html/storage so I can't access to it.
Reading the documentation, I know it is a problem with the symbolic link.
how can I change it?
Note: I can't access to the cdm because it is a shared hosting without access. It is window hosting.
make this route in web.php then hit this
Route::get('/artisan/storage', function() {
$command = 'storage:link';
$result = Artisan::call($command);
return Artisan::output();
})
So I'm testing that a Laravel app that I just deployed to an Ubuntu server with Nginx works correctly, and I reached a point where I need to download some files that were upload from the front end using Angular.
I can upload files with no problem and I made sure that those are actually in the server and yeah, they are saved as expected.
However when I need to download them I get the error: "Failed to create the file"
It worked on my local machine, so I'm guessing is kind of a configuration problem but I'm not sure what to change yet.
The file is being requested through a GET request with Http with the header: { responseType: ResponseContentType.Blob }, the latter being part of Angular.
And in Laravel this is how I'm returning the file:
public function download($activityId) {
$activity = $activity = Activity::find($activityId, ['student_id', 'file_storage']);
$file = public_path() . '/storage/activityFiles/' . $activity['student_id'] . '/' . $activity['file_storage'];
return response()->download($file);
}
What can I be missing?
I decided to take a look at the laravel logs to see a little further the problem.
The problem was that I forgot to create the symbolic link to the storage.
That fixed the issue.
I got a problem here, I just created a website using CI 3.1.3, I already add a .htaccess file and also Setup the base_url config
$config['base_url'] = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
I already create the Controller, and add it to the routes.
But whenever I click a link that redirect to another page, the url in the address bar is changed, the browser is loaded, but it still showing the same page that were set in the default controller,
I already tried to search it on the google but can't find the answer, and actually I don't know how to describe my problem is.
But please help me to solve this problem, thank you
This is what I use
$protocol = ( isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' ) ? 'https://' : 'http://';
$config['base_url'] = $protocol . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']), "", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
Does it work without .htaccess and/or route config?
I have just installed Ci framework and tried on my local some basics according to the tutorial.
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/tutorial/static_pages.html
On local machine, everything was OK and page was displayed.
Than I upload project to the server (I am using wedos web hosting where I already have som web which is working correctly) but this is not working for the application which I copied it here. When I type the URL I got 404 error.
On my webhosting service I have www folder where i put my index.html file. Than when i type www.mydomain.eu I get this index.html file. Than I have subfolder www/folder/index.html Than when i type www.mydomain.eu/folder i get this page so it is ok.
Than i have www/folder2/here i unzip CodeIgniter framework and when i type www.mydomain.eu/folder2, 404 Page Not Found appears. The error is not general error from browser but generated from the CI framework.
I have created my own controler in application/controllers/mycontroller.php
<?php
class Mycontroller extends CI_Controller {
public function view($page = ‘enter_form’)
{
$data[‘title’] = ucfirst($page); // Capitalize the first letter
$this->load->view(‘templates/header’, $data);
$this->load->view(‘pages/’.$page, $data);
$this->load->view(‘templates/footer’, $data);
}
}
And I have following structure of views:
views/pages/enter_form.php
views/templates/header.php and footer.php
And the following settings:
1) $config[‘base_url’] = ‘’; but I have tried ‘http://mydomain.eu/’ and ‘http://mydomain.eu/www/’ or ‘http://mydomain.eu/www/folder2/’
2) $route[‘default_controller’] = ‘mycontroller/view’;
$route[’(:any)’] = ‘mycontroller/view/$1’;
Thank you for any help
Sounds to me like there is either a configuration issue or a rewrite issue going on. Do you have a .htaccess file in your CI root folder where your index.php file lives? Seeing that you are depending on the CI to pick up any uri and reroute it to a specific route, this might be the issue. I've ran into issues with this before on different hosts. Make sure mod rewrite is enabled and make sure your .htaccess is something similar to this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|assets|uploads)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
Ok, so it seems like the typo somewhere, because when I used the default CI welcome pages, it works. So I will try to find the typo myself and i will see...
I have a CI site with several form using jquery .click function, when I was in http its worked well, when I change to https all the form click button cannot be fire, its happen in localhost and in web host as well, is that anything need to config to run CI in https?
please advise and thanks!
Solved:
I just remove the url from $config['base_url'], and now the issue is solved, but I wonder how come when running https couldn't set value on $config['base_url']? hope someone would clear my doubt.
Thanks guy for taking time to view my question.
Set your base_url protocol independent:
$config['base_domain'] = 'yourdomain.com'; // a new config item if you need to get your domain name
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']))
{
$protocol = ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == 443 ? 'https://' : 'http://');
$config['base_url'] = $protocol.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$config['base_url'] .= str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']),"",$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
}
else
{
$config['base_url'] = '';
}
I am guessing your ajax request fails because you are trying to access no-secure content from a secure site.
I had a similar issue. I simply changed the base URL from HTTP to HTTPS in the config file and it worked well for both protocols.
# Base URL in codeigniter with HTTP
$config['base_url'] = 'http://mysite.abc/';
# Base URL in codeigniter with HTTPS
$config['base_url'] = 'https://mysite.abc/';
Remember, when you change HTTP to HTTPS, the site should work well for both protocols but it doesn't work the other way around.
