I’ve tried following the installation instructions but when I try to install it, I am just redirected to the home page of my website. I need to install it on a subdirectory under public/html.

Hello,
To install in subdirectory, you should redirect all traffic of that subdirectory to
public
directly.You can check with your server admin for more and to know the cause of redirect to home page, might be due to config or something related to main directory.
Thank you

“To install in subdirectory, you should redirect all traffic of that subdirectory to public directly”. What do you mean? How would I redirect traffic to public? Do I have to change some code? If so, which file needs to be modified?
- MSAnswered
Hello,
It means that the folder you have uploaded the files to contains senstive data and should not be accessible to public. Public should only be allowed to access the
public
folder in your uploaded file.Each server has config options to do this OR symbolic links can be created. You can check with your server admin and check how you can secure Laravel installation in subdirectory.
No, you don’t have to change item code but setup your server so that the public can’t get access to any sensitive data as
.env
and config folder contains all the confidential data and if anyone has access to these they can easily hack/destroy your installation.Your server admin should be able to guide you on securing Laravel application.
Thank you

I have noticed that in your documentation, there is supposed to be an install folder. After unzipping my downloaded package, I don’t see an install folder. Where do I find it?
- MSAnswered
Hello,
No., there is no install folder. It’s mentioned to access the
/install
in browser and its route not folder.Thank you
