Setup Laravel 4 in Shared Hosting with securing Laravel base file
Submitted by amirolahmad - 9 years ago
This is my step on how to install laravel outside public_html
Assume that you have file structure something like this:-
/home/username/public_html
1. Create new folder outside public_html:-
/home/username/main-laravel
2. Move all the main file of Laravel (app, boostrap, vendor, composer.json, composer.lock, phpunit.xml etc) into that folder (step 1) **except Public folder
3. Open /home/username/main-laravel/bootstrap/paths.php and edit to look like this:-
- replace 'app' => __DIR__.'/../app', to 'app' => __DIR__.'/../../main-laravel/app',
- replace 'public' => __DIR__.'/../public', to 'public' => __DIR__.'/../../public_html/laravel',
- replace 'base' => __DIR__.'/..', to 'base' => __DIR__.'/../../main-laravel',
- replace 'storage' => __DIR__.'/../app/storage', to 'storage' => __DIR__.'/../../main-laravel/app/storage',
—- SAVE —
4. Now create a new folder inside public_html
/home/username/public_html/laravel
5. Now, move all the content in public folder of Laravel into that folder (step 4)
6. Open /home/username/public_html/laravel/index.php and edit to look like this:-
- replace require __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/autoload.php'; to require __DIR__.'/../../main-laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php';
- replace $app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/start.php'; to $app = require_once __DIR__.'/../../main-laravel/bootstrap/start.php';
—- SAVE —
7. Now create .htaccess in /home/username/public_html and insert this code:-
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^laravel
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ laravel/$1 [L]
—- SAVE —-
Now, your laravel website can be access at http://username.com
