I think I finally got homestead installed on my laptop! Now, I am trying to view my laravel project in the browser.
When I open "dev.app" in the browser I get a message that say "No input file specified." which I think means that my homestead is working but the laravel project is not there/setup.
I have created a folder called Projects on my local laptop (i.e. ~/Projects). Then from inside of it i executed this command
laravel new dev
But I still get the same error message in the browser i.e. "No input file specified." I have also tried to open this link "dev.app"/dev" but I still get the same message.
What I am doing wrong?
Here is the content of my Homestead.yaml file
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/Code
sites:
- map: dev.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/public
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
Additional, when I execute the following 2 commands in order
cd ~/Projects
ls
I see the following directories dev homestead
What should I do to see my project when I go to dev.app ? Do I need to do anything from my Ubuntu VM or I should be able to edit the files directly in located on ~\Projects\dev" from my laptop?
Add an entry in /etc/hosts on your local machine
192.168.10.10 dev.app
Correct the path to the public folder in the sites section of your Homestead.yaml
sites:
- map: dev.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/dev/public

Im trying to launch my website on my local host but every time i time the domain (Whoodie.dev:8000)into my browser I get "no input file specified" on my screen.
This is my homestead.yaml file I think thats were the problem lay. Can anybody help me or point me in the right direction?
ip: "192.168.10.10"

It sounds like nginx is struggling to find the location that you've told it to load from.
If you vagrant ssh into the box and run cd /home/vagrant/Code/www/Laravel/public does it exist?
If not, assuming your folder structure inside ~/www is actually ~/www/Code/Laravel/public then your mapping should be:
sites: - map: Whoodie.dev to: /home/vagrant/www/Code/Laravel/public
Try changing that then run vagrant provision and see if that helps.
I'm having problem to understand how to run my website using vagrant and Laravel Homestead environment.
I added laravel/homestead box without any problems. Then I ran vagrant init laravel/homestead and it worked too.
I managed to create Homestead.yaml and here's what it contains:
---
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/code
sites:
- map: project.dev
to: /home/vagrant/code/project
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
vagrant up runs correctly, but I don't know how to access my website. I added 192.168.10.10 project.dev to my /etc/hosts.
I want to keep my project at ~/www/project. First thing that I didn't understand from the docs is, what is the folder at sites / map / to setting supposed to be? My local folder or a folder in the virtual environment?
The next thing I don't understand is why when I do vagrant ssh and then ls, I don't see any files, even though there's index.php at my ~/www/project. I thought they are going to be synchronized automatically.
When I go to project.dev in the browser, it timeouts. I tried project.dev:8000 as well and 192.168.10.10, but nothing works.
Please help me.
You are forgetting the folders parameter, also your indentation should be with spaces and not with tabs, thats the way yaml works, everything else seems to be fine but try to make it with something similar to this one

you're missing the folder share settings in you're homestead.yaml file.
Try adding
folders:
- map: ~/www/project
to: /home/vagrant/code
Look at the docs here
http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/homestead#configuring-homestead under Configuring Shared Folders
I think this is the common issue that someone new to Laravel Homestead is facing.
Laravel Homestead basically provides an image that gets a VM ready for Laravel development. The yaml config on "sites" is basically use to configure Nginx - it does not install a Laravel project on the path specified.
So for a new homestead VM, you just have to ssh into your Homestead VM, and type and run this:
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
Once done, on you /home/vagrant/code folder (in the VM, not your host), type and run this:
laravel new project
Where the "project" is the name given to your new project. Since your yaml is already configured to "project", the above command will work fine. Obviously, this is clearly not the only way to get Laravel as you can use composer create-project to install Laravel directly.
Once done, you should be able to visit http://project.dev on your host's browser, if your host file is configured with this added entry:
192.168.10.10<tab>project.dev
Alternatively, you can configure your host file to be
127.0.0.1<tab>project.dev
Which you can then view on your host's browser via http://project.dev:8000
Hope the above explains clear enough. Enjoy!
I am new on vagrant. I am using Laravel Homestead Improved by following this
link. I want to map my existing code on vagrant which is inside my xampp installation. Here is my Homestead.yaml file contents.
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
sites:
- map: myapp.com
to: /home/vagrant/Code
folders:
- map: /opt/lampp/htdocs/codebase
to: /home/vagrant/Code
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
Although when I run the following command
cd Code/
it shows my code but on browser when I run http://myapp.com:8000/ it shows "No input file specified."
By default a webserver usually looks for index.html then index.php, neither of these files are in your /home/vagrant/Code folder which is why you're getting the "No input file specified" error.
On your sites section, you should map the domain to your public folder of Laravel. So in this case it should likely be /home/vagrant/Code/public
You mapped codebase to Code, and you mapped myapp.com to Code.
If you currently have an app in codebase/app1/index.php, then this wouldn't work because myapp.com is looking for index.php inside Code.
Thus, you need to access either: myapp.com:8000/app1 OR you need to remap sites like so (and do this for every site/app folder inside codebase):
sites:
- map: myapp.com
to: /home/vagrant/Code/app1
Note that you need to replace app1 with whatever you called your app's folder in XAMPP
i installed vagrant lately on my windows 7 machine, i successfully runned the virtual machine because i can ssh to it but no synchronization between my local project and the homestead.
my yaml file is like :
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: /Users/User/Homestead/projects
to: /home/vagrant/sites
sites:
- map: laravel.dev
to: /home/vagrant/sites/laravel/public
hhvm: true
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
My laravel project is inside projects folder in my local homestead directory, but it seems that the sites folder that links to it is not synced with it !!
i'm not good at unix command line but is it weird that ls -la command work but ls alone don't seem to work as i saw if tutorials ?
update :
After changing the hosts file setup for : 127.0.0.1 laravel.dev to 192.168.10.10 laravel.dev the site was accessible in my browser, but the problem of no syncronization still happening (i had to install a new laravel in vangrant) i want to deplay my project from wamp to projects folder and be syncronized with "sites" in homestead
Edit your Homestead.yaml
In the line
---
folders:
- map: E:/projects //your projects folder here
to: /home/vagrant/Code
sites:
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/public
Now if you are using Windows, open notepad as administrator and your hosts
System32/drivers/etc/hosts
192.168.10.10 laravel5angularapp.dev
192.168.10.10 angular2laravel.dev
192.168.10.10 laravel5-angular2.dev
192.168.10.10 yourproject.dev
Now access your homestead
homestead up
homestead ssh
Inside homestead
cd Code
ls -a
All your projects should appear here, then
cd ~
then
serve yourproject.dev /home/vagrant/Code/yourlaravelprojectname/public/
Then
sudo service nginx restart
Or
homestead reload
Your project should be running in
http://yourproject.dev
I've tried many things but none of them worked. Finally i've changed map folder to the full path version and then run the vagrant reload command and it was ok.
Homestead.yaml
folders:
- map: C:/Users/username/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code.
vagrant reload
You can use ~/Homestead/projects in windows is the same the C:\Users\your_user\your_folders
I'd like to use laravel homestead for my development machine and installed virtualbox and vagrant successfully, but when I run vagrant up I get this error:
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
There are errors in the configuration of this machine. Please fix
the following errors and try again:
vm:
* The host path of the shared folder is missing: ~/Code
The Homestead.yaml file looks like this:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code
sites:
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/public
hhvm: true
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
These are the default settings, but they don't really work for my machine - I don't even have /home/vagrant folder nor do I have ~/Code anywhere where I can see. I'm using ubuntu 12.04 - can you please point me to how I should configure my settings because by the official documentation I'm kind of lost.
Inside the homestead directory, you have to run the command bash init.sh.
This will generate the Homestead.yaml file (and after.sh and aliases) inside your home directory (~).
If you are changing Homestead.yaml again, you have to re-run bash init.sh again. It will ask for overwrite, say yes.
(and as mentioned in other answers, be sure that the directory for folders: - map: exists)
In your Ubuntu machine you have to let Homestead know where your actual code is located. Example:
If you code is located in a seperate partition called WORKSPACE you need to type the following:
- map: /Volumes/WORKSPACE/YourProject
to: /home/vagrant/Code
In Windows case I used this:
- map: e:/GIT/PHP/mathmaps/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code
P.S. GIT is my workspace folder
running bash init.sh a second time will prompt to overwrite the initial setup, this will also output the directory path you require to edit the correct Homestead.yaml file.
The map: attribute has to be set to the location to where you want to keep your code. For example, I will be saving my code in a folder called code within the Homestead folder therefore, map is:
folders:
- map: ~/Development/Homestead/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code
Where 'Development' is simply a folder in my home directory where I keep all my code
