It sounds like you need to setup the public disk still. Try this?

How to access files from blade in my storage directory?
I have a file in my storage directory in /storage/invoices/invoice.pdf and I can't access it from my blade view file.
For example:
<a href="{{ storage_path() . '/invoices/' . $data->invoice_pdf }}">
this generates this url
http://localhost/var/www/new_project/storage/invoices/invoice_07_11_2018_18_59_36.pdf

@martinzeltin Take a look at public_path(). It might be more what you are looking for. Also, I review https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/filesystem#the-public-disk every time I'm dealing with this topic.

Thanks this helped
ln -s /var/www/new_project/storage /var/www/new_project/public/storage

@martinzeltin Nice. And if you don't want to manually link it, I believe that's exactly what php artisan storage:link does. Glad you got it figured out.
