Install Laravel 5.3 in XAMPP Linux

Question

I installed Laravel 5.3 with this command: composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog

in /opt/lampp/htdocs directory

when I go to http://localhost/blog/public/ I get HTTP ERROR 500

I think this error is due to:

permission storage and the bootstrap/cache folder

I add my main system user (javad) to www-data group and vice versa, But the problem is not resolved

OS: ubuntu 16.04

Have you tried `composer install` ? – yahyazini Dec 28 '16 at 16:50 — yahyazini, Dec 28 '16 at 16:50

You can find exact error in storage/logs/laravel.log or web server log.

If you have permissions related problem, try to run this command from laravel project directory (do not use 777 on real server):

sudo chmod -R 777 storage bootstrap/cache

Also, wrong web server configuration can cause this problem. You should point web server to a public directory which is inside Laravel project root

If new file automatically created, chmod is 777 automatically? – javad75 Dec 25 '16 at 13:03
