Error 500 on shared hosting after changin app folder
Hello. I got a folder structure
/home/usrname/domains/domain.com/public_html
And i want to move laravel files from public html to domain.com/laravel so i change index.php in public_html to:
require (dirname(__DIR__) . "/laravel/vendor/autoload.php");
which gives me the /home/usrname/domains/domain.com/laravel/vendor/autoload.php path.
$app = require_once (dirname(__DIR__) . "/laravel/bootstrap/app.php");
After that still got a error 500. Permissions: 755.
server.php in laravel folder:
<?php
/**
* Laravel - A PHP Framework For Web Artisans
*
* @package Laravel
* @author Taylor Otwell <[email protected]>
*/
$uri = urldecode(
parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH)
);
if ($uri !== '/' && file_exists(__DIR__.'/../public_html'.$uri)) {
return false;
}
require_once __DIR__.'/../public_html/index.php';

Irregardless of folder structure, still point to public as your document root.
Or move main laravel above public_html. I have a reference to a guide if you need it, but it's pretty straightforward.
But set it up correctly.

so what should i do? As everything was in public_html, it worked. The path is correct because echo works for example in autoload.php

create a folder. put your Laravel project in it (without tampering with the index.php)
delete the public_html folder
create a symlink that points public_html to the laravel/public folder
