Installing Laravel
In previous post i have explain you how to install composer, today we will learn how to install Laravel using composer.
becouse i’m using apache webserver then my default Documentroot is in the /var/www/html.
so, open you terminal and go to /var/www/html and then run this command
Make VirtualHost
Now go to the /etc/apache2/sites-available directory and use
the following command to create a configuration file for our laravel install.
cd /etc/apache2/sites-available
sudo nano laravel.conf
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName webtoken.faiz ServerAdmin faiz@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/html/blog/public <Directory /var/www/html/blog> AllowOverride All </Directory> ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost>
Now we have to enable this newly created .conf file and disable the default .conf file that is installed with the default Apache install. Also we need to enable mod_rewrite so that permalinks can function properly.
sudo a2dissite 000-default.conf sudo a2ensite laravel.conf sudo a2enmod rewrite sudo service apache2 restart
now open browser and hit http://webtoken.faiz . picture below is screesshoot of my project
