I am trying to upload a laravel site to GoDaddy but I get an internal server error.
owlcrest.sidneylab.com
1 - I uploaded the folder of my project to the root directory 2 - Copied the content of the public folder inside a folder in my public_html folder 3 - I changed the index.php to the following:
require __DIR__.'/../owlcrest/vendor/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../owlcrest/bootstrap/app.php';
I have composer installed and updated.
Created the database and assigned it to a user.
The .env file configurations are set and I generated a new key.
Anything else I am posssibly missing?
so the structure is now:
If so, you can try setting the permissions on both /app/bootstrap/cache & /storage/* so the app can write to its logs and cache files.
After that, if you still get a 500, you should at least have some more info in your storage/logs/laravel.log file.
No @lostdreamer_nl The project is in the root directory, and I named it owlcrest. In the public_html, I create another folder called owlcrest, which has all the content inside te public folder of the project.
So I have: /public_html/owlcrest/index.php
Hope I could explain better
So the structure is like this?
/owlcrest/app/...
/owlcrest/public_html/owlcrest/index.php
In that case, you should change your index.php to this:
require __DIR__.'/../owlcrest/vendor/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../owlcrest/bootstrap/app.php';
// becomes
require __DIR__.'/../../vendor/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../../bootstrap/app.php';
// or maybe
require __DIR__.'/../../owlcrest/vendor/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../../owlcrest/bootstrap/app.php';
Simply make sure that the path is correct relative from index.php (so UP to folders (out of owlcrest, out of public_html), and then into the laravel folder to vendor/autoload.php & bootstrap/app.php)
The last one worked:
require __DIR__.'/../../owlcrest/vendor/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../../owlcrest/bootstrap/app.php';
You really saved my day. Appreciate the support
