Check your error logs, what does it say specifically.

I fix it its because I upgrade laravel then I delete whole installation and install with 5.2 version now everything work thanks so much :)

Hey, just curious: what kind of a plan are you using for GoDaddy? I had no idea they even offered these kinds of plans. I'm happy with my DigitalOcean droplets, but I'm curious.

@wdkevo They do cloud/VPS/dedicated but wouldn't even look there tbh.

@bashy Thanks for the response! I didn't know they offer those. And yeah, I'm personally not too fond of GoDaddy.

I hope you find this useful, this workaround seemed to work:

the folder Public in Laravel 5.4 (the version i tried to install), must be the requested file when you hit the url www.example.com, however the core files are in the parent folder,

full path here is : /home/[USER]/public_html

copy all Laravel to that URL : /home/emadha/public_html

move all laravel core files/folders to /home/Laravel <make new directory, whatever you want>

move Laravel's 'public' folder content to: /home/emadha/public_html/

that includes the files: [js,css,index.php,.htaccess,favicon.ico,robots.txt,config.txt]

Edit the file /home/emadha/public_html/index.php (the one we moved from /public folder in laravel to /public_html in godaddy)

The index.php content (as of Laravel version 5.4.23) is :

==============================================================

<?php

/**

require __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/autoload.php';

$kernel = $app->make(Illuminate\Contracts\Http\Kernel::class);

$response = $kernel->handle(
    $request = Illuminate\Http\Request::capture()
);

$response->send();

$kernel->terminate($request, $response);

=============================================================

change those :

require __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/autoload.php'; 
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';

to the correct path of Laravel

to:

require __DIR__.'/../Laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../Laravel//bootstrap/app.php';

HOWEVER, these changes will cause issues with your IDE FTP client, so keep that in mind, for instance your FTP remote directory will most likley be pointing to /public_html but laravels files are located one directory behind as a work around you can set the ftp remote directory or destination directory whatever you want to call it, to point to /home/Laravel, you can play however you like from here, but that workaround just to solve the issue with laravel own directory structure, (!ON godaddy shared hosting!), changes in apache can as well solve the issue in a clean way, but i can't find that on godaddy shared hosting.

hope you find this usefull

Update:

i found this much more cleaner :)

Ehh you should be using a symbolic link. I originally did it the way you are taking about, but found that is inefficient and cumbersome in the future.

Have the following structure

home/{username}/public_html/ ---> ../laravel-application/public

The public_html folder, the whole thing, would simply be a symbolic link to your public folder in your Laravel application.

I have a GoDaddy shared hosting plan using Laravel 5.4 and I couldn't be happier. For those who think GoDaddy is bad... why? I have the lowest shared hosting plan available and I have 99.97% up time (based on up time robot pinging ever 5 minutes for the past three months, and the .03% was when I pushed fault code that broke the server) The only thing I'm sad about is GoDaddy's shared hosting plan offers php 5.6.25, and Laravel 5.5 is moving to 7. Other than that, GoDaddy, in my opinion, is better than some of the competition.

5.5 is moving to 7

That's crazy. But what happens when only one person is in control. No backwards compatibility to help folks who have spent a lot of time programming a site. I am currently on ver 5.1 and had high hopes for ver 5.5.

I may have to look into nova framework.

@jlrdw Just stay on 5.1 then? Most code bases work fine on PHP7 anyway.

@bashy it's not the code base, it works on php 7, I have a humane society site on godaddy. But I suspect that they will have php 7 available before to long, they usually lag behind for several months.

@jlrdw If they don't, moan to them for not supporting an active PHP version :)

I have already expressed my concern with GoDaddy about their php 5.6.25 support, but laravel 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4 have long term support.. thus I don't see the huge problem.

@gofish543 no, 5.1 is LTS, next, is 5.5. Those in between versions are not LTS. I also got with godaddy they will have seven soon but not an ETA yet.
