I've installed a pre-made Laravel app and followed the documentation to extract it to the public root except in the documentation they are installing it into public_html, but I have it in a subdomain in a folder named "test" which is on the same level as public_html.
All the CSS and JS should be loading from the public subdirectory, but they try to look for it in the main root folder.
For example, this file returns a 404 error:
https://test.mydomain.com/css/style.css
The file is actually at this location:
https://test.mydomain.com/public/css/style.css
The absolute path of the file is:
/home/mydomain/test/public/css/style.css
Instead of:
/home/mydomain/public_html/public/css/style.css
What environment or config file isn't set correctly and how do I set it to use the correct directory?
UPDATE
Changing the ASSET_URL to "public" fixed the first issue, but now the same thing is happening with the admin.
The app tries to load the dashboard with this URL:
https://test.mydomain.com/admin/dashboard
The page loads all the assets normally when I remove the word "admin" from the URL:
https://test.mydomain.com/dashboard
But this doesn't work for all the pages.
You can try to put public directory path in below given conflagration file.
Config File Path : config/app.php (asset_url)
'asset_url' => env('ASSET_URL', 'https://test.mydomain.com/public/')
When I load my website I want the default page to be loaded but it is located inside two more folders in htdocs. I tried changing .htaccess but it did not work as I expected. This is my directory structure:
htdocs\hotel-management-repo\hotel-app\index.php
What rule did you apply in the .htaccess? Have you tried something like:
RewriteRule ^index.php$ hotel-management-repo\hotel-app\index.php [QSA,L]
i have a pdf file in view folder and controller folder by the link i need to access it how to do this i have tried with following by am getting error like
Access forbidden!
$path=base_url()."application/views/users/sample_pdf_report.pdf";
$path2="C:\xampp\htdocs\vacationgod\application\views\users\sample_pdf_report.pdf"
// OPTIONAL - PUT A LINK TO DOWNLOAD THE PDF YOU JUST CREATED
echo ("<a href='$path2'>Download Your PDF</a>");
i have tried both $path and $path2
You probably have a .htaccess file forbidding people to access files in those folders.
You should create a res folder in your site root path and place your pdf file in that folder and link the file from there..
Happy coding :)
I am trying to upload my Laravel project onto my web server, but my past two attempts have been unsuccessful. I believe I am not uploading the files to the right location.
This is my web server's structure ->
Am I correct to say that I need to upload ALL of my laravel files into public_html?
This is my Laravel project's directory :
EDIT : I have now added all the files onto the root folder, and public into public_html, however none of my routes seem to work. (They work perfectly on localhost). Everything throws a 404
No, but you have a couple of options:
The easiest is to upload all the files you have into that directory you're in (i.e. the cPanel user home directory), and put the contents of public into public_html. That way your directory structure will be something like this (slightly messy but it works):
/
.composer/
.cpanel/
...
app/ <- your laravel app directory
etc/
bootstrap/ <- your laravel bootstrap directory
mail/
public_html/ <- your laravel public directory
vendor/
artisan <- your project's root files
You may also need to edit bootstrap/paths.php to point at the correct public directory.
The other solution, if you don't like having all these files in that 'root' directory would be to put them in their own directory (maybe 'laravel') that's still in the root directory and then edit the paths to work correctly. You'll still need to put the contents of public in public_html, though, and this time edit your public_html/index.php to correctly bootstrap the application. Your folder structure will be a lot tidier this way (though there could be some headaches with paths due to messing with the framework's designed structure more):
/
.composer/
.cpanel/
...
etc/
laravel/ <- a directory containing all your project files except public
app/
bootstrap/
vendor/
artisan
mail/
public_html/ <- your laravel public directory
I believe - your Laravel files/folders should not be placed in root directory.
e.g. If your domain is pointed to public_html directory then all content should placed in that directory. How ? let me tell you
Copy all files and folders ( including public folder ) in public_html
Copy all content of public folder and paste it in document root ( i.e. public_html )
Remove the public folder
Open your bootstrap/paths.php and then changed 'public' => __DIR__.'/../public', into 'public' => __DIR__.'/..',
and finally in index.php,
Change
require __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/start.php';
into
require __DIR__.'/bootstrap/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/bootstrap/start.php';
Your Laravel application should work now.
If you are trying to host your Laravel app on a shared hosting, this may help you.
Hosting Laravel on shared hosting #1
Hosting Laravel on shared hosting #2
If you want PHP 5.4 add this line to your .htaccess file or call your hosting provider.
AddType application/x-httpd-php54 .php
In Laravel 5.x there is no paths.php
so you should edit public/index.php and change this lines in order to to pint to your bootstrap directory:
require __DIR__.’/../bootstrap/autoload.php’;
$app = require_once __DIR__.’/../bootstrap/app.php’;
for more information you can read this article.
Had this problem too and found out that the easiest way is to point your domain to the public folder and leave everything else the way they are.
PLEASE ENSURE TO USE THE RIGHT VERSION OF PHP. Save yourself some stress :)
All of your Laravel files should be in one location.
Laravel is exposing its public folder to server. That folder represents some kind of front-controller to whole application. Depending on you server configuration, you have to point your server path to that folder. As I can see there is www site on your picture. www is default root directory on Unix/Linux machines.
It is best to take a look inside you server configuration and search for root directory location. As you can see, Laravel has already file called .htaccess, with some ready Apache configuration.
I'm learning how to make firefox extensions.
I have created a directory called findfile, under which I have the directories content/ skin/ and locale/ . There is a findfile.xul file in the content/ directory. The other two are empty
I have placed a findfile.manifest file under /home/akshay/.mozilla/firefox/xxxx.dev/chrome/
The content of findfile.manifest is:
content findfile file:///home/akshay/programs/firefox/findfile/content/
skin findfile classic/1.0 file:///home/akshay/programs/firefox/findfile/skin/
locale findfile en-US file:///home/akshay/programs/firefox/findfile/locale/
When I access findfile.xul using a file:// URL, it works fine. But when I try to access it using chrome://findfile/content/findfile.xul, it doesn't show the window. (I restarted the browser)
What am I doing wrong?
Perhaps rename the findfile.manifest to chrome.manifest ?
Also not a good idea to give absolute paths. Use relative paths instead.
