Errors not showing in Laravel 5 App only blank page

What I'm doing wrong?

Using shared hosting :p

A server on digital ocean cost nothing. It even has prepackaged server image with apache/php/mysql. Try it you will have way more fun.

Maybe using a good shared hosting is also a good solution ^^

@pmall my personal projects are on digital ocean, but my client now has bought hosting from godaddy, so i have to use it :/

I just updated the first post with more information

Try this :

Dont change the relative path of any files. Put the data from public in public_html. So we have the regular laravel structure except public is named public_html. Put the root of your server as public_html.

Then change the path of laravel public folder by putting this in your AppServiceProvider register method :

$this->app->bind('path.public', function () {

    return base_path() . '/public_html';

});

Anything in your logs? The white screen is usually (in my experience) a permission issue on /storage (and it's sub folders).

@pmall i want to use sub domain for my laravel project, therefore I have added the laravel public folder into /public_html/public/private so now i have /public_html/public/private/public

@kevdotbadger there no any errors in laravels or apache log files

How is your webserver configured ?

@pmall i don't know, is the base linux package of godaddy. I deleted the project and tried again to upload it. I run the composer install and i got the following error

Loading composer repositories with package information Installing dependencies (including require-dev) from lock file Nothing to install or update Generating autoload files Script php artisan clear-compiled handling the post-install-cmd event returned with an error

then I did the following commands which php with result /usr/local/bin/php php --ini with result Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /usr/local/lib Loaded Configuration File: /usr/local/lib/php.ini Scan for additional .ini files in: (none) Additional .ini files parsed: (none)

can anyone find out the problem?

I mean the apache or nginx configuration. The root should be /public_html/public/private/public. Then keep the laravel files in private and don't change any path in original laravel files.

I have changed now the configuration. in the / directory i have created a laravel project where i have uploaded all the laravel files. inside the public_html i paste the contents of the public folder and i made this configuration require DIR.'/../laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php';

$app = require_once DIR.'/../laravel/bootstrap/app.ph $this->app->bind('path.public', function () {

return base_path() . '/public_html';

});

I will check now for apache or nginx and i will let you know

Godaddy is using apache. where i can find the configuration of the webserver?

You absolutely have to upload it all in one folder and do not tweak the paths. Then point your webserver to the public folder. Where ever it is.

@pmall ok but i cannot install laravel inside a folder like the structure that i have now?

I dont know it is overcomplicated, why don't you want to keep the original structure ? Don't add headaches to the headaches :D

@pmall because the root directory already has some folders like public_html, public_ftp, perl5 etc. I dont want to upload the laravel's files in the same directory, will be a mess, i want them to be separate :p

So create a subfolder but keep the same structure for the laravel project. Then you have to configure the vhost to have the laravel public folder as root.

@pmall ok thank you. i will try it now

Try this:

Update storage folder permission and set DocumentRoot to 'public' directory

Thanks

Are you checking Laravel's logs or Apache's logs?

Since upgrading to Laravel 4.1, I've had white screen "errors" (WSOD) when the application could not write to the log location. I've always solved this by making the app/storage directory writable by Apache (either group writable to "www-data" or world-writable - that depends on your server setup.

Laravel 4

# Group Writable (Group, User Writable)
$ sudo chmod -R gu+w app/storage

# World-writable (Group, User, Other Writable)
$ sudo chmod -R guo+w app/storage

Laravel 5

# Group Writable (Group, User Writable)
$ sudo chmod -R gu+w storage

# World-writable (Group, User, Other Writable)
$ sudo chmod -R guo+w storage

@giwrgos did you find a solution? I now have the same problem.

@lord yes first find if the permissions are fine on your storage folder and then run the command "php artisan cache:clear"
