Setting-Up Process:

1- Adding Laravel User,Download Laravel Framework, Set directory permission

# cd /home/laravel
# git clone https://github.com/laravel/laravel.git
# chmod 755 /home/laravel/laravel
# chown -R laravel.apache /home/laravel/laravel/public && chmod -R 2750 /home/laravel/laravel/public
# chmod -R 777 /home/laravel/laravel/storage

2- VirtualHost Configs

Creating a VirtualHosts with the following configuration for the new laravel user.

Create the file ~ /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost.conf

# vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost.conf

 

NameVirtualHost *:80

      DocumentRoot /home/laravel/laravel/public
      ServerAdmin laravel@server.com
      ServerName server.com
      ServerAlias *.server.com

<Directory "/home/laravel/laravel/public">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order Allow,Deny
    Allow from All


3- Confiure Mysql for laravel User

Starting MySQL and using it’s CLI to create a Database called “laravel”, then seure your mysql server using mysql_secure_installation and set mysql root password.

  • create laravel user and database.
# service mysqld start
# mysql_secure_installation
# mysql -u root -p
# CREATE USER 'laravel'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '@lara01PW';
# GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON laravel.* To 'laravel'@'hostname' IDENTIFIED BY '@lara01PW';
# FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

4– Install Laravel

Using composer as the following, to install all dependencies required for Laravel framework.

# composer install

When we’re ready, we’ll need to adjust DB into Larave’s .env configuration file:

5- Adjusting DB Settings

# mv .env.example .env
# vim .env
### Adjustment DB info in .env file ###

DB_HOST=localhost

DB_DATABASE=laravel

DB_USERNAME=laravel

DB_PASSWORD=@lara01PW

6- set the encryption key

Now set the 32 bit long random number encryption key, which used by the Illuminate encrypter service.

# php artisan key:generate		#That will generate the new key to your .env file

7- SeLinux Settings 

If SELinux enabled for your system, running the below command to allow write on storage directory.

# chcon -R -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /home/laravel/laravel/storage

8- Fix permissions

In case of permissions issue you can make sure of following permissions are sets.

# chown -R laravel.apache /home/laravel/laravel
# chmod -R 755 /home/laravel/laravel
# chmod -R 777 /home/laravel/laravel/storage

 

Starting httpd Service service httpd start and check out your Laravel web application.

Hope That’s Help. Thanks.
