# 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

# vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost.conf
NameVirtualHost *:80 DocumentRoot /home/laravel/laravel/public ServerAdmin laravel@server.com ServerName server.com ServerAlias *.server.com ErrorLog /home/laravel/error_log CustomLog /home/laravel/access_log common <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.
