This tutorial is the improvised verision of this [tutorial on Digitalocean](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-laravel-with-an-nginx-web-server-on-ubuntu-14-04) based on my experience. ## Install PHP 7 on Ubuntu Run the following commands in sequence. ``` sudo apt-get install -y language-pack-en-base sudo LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install zip unzip sudo apt-get install -y php7.0 php7.0-fpm php7.0-mysql sudo apt-get install nginx git ``` Important packages for Laravel ``` sudo apt-get install mcrypt php7.0-mcrypt sudo apt-get install -y php7.0-mbstring php7.0-xml --force-yes ``` Some Optional ones ``` sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl php7.0-json ``` **NOTE:** You can use the following command to list available PHP 7.0 packages: ``` sudo apt-cache search php7-* ``` ## Modify the PHP Configuration Run the following command to go to php.ini ``` sudo nano /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini ``` And uncomment and fix `cgi.fix_pathinfo` to ``` cgi.fix_pathinfo=0 ``` Restart PHP 7.0 FPM ``` sudo service php7.0-fpm restart ``` ## Configure Nginx for Laravel I am going to setup using a blank latest version of Laravel. This would installed in `/var/www/laravel` folder. Run the following in terminal: ``` sudo mkdir -p /var/www/laravel ``` Next, we are going to modify the nginx's default configuration file: `/etc/nginx/sites-available/default`. But before that, just make a backup of the file: ``` sudo mkdir ~/Backups sudo cp /etc/nginx/sites-available/default ~/Backups/default ``` Use the following command to edit the file ``` sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default ``` Next modify `default` from this: ``` server { listen 80 default_server; listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; root /usr/share/nginx/html; index index.html index.htm; server_name localhost; location / { try_files $uri $uri/ =404; } } ``` to this: ``` server { listen 80 default_server; listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; root /var/www/laravel/public; index index.php index.html index.htm; # Make site accessible from http://localhost/ server_name <Your Domain name / Public IP Address>; location / { # First attempt to serve request as file, then # as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404. try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string; # Uncomment to enable naxsi on this location # include /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules } location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri =404; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; include fastcgi_params; } } ``` Notice the difference: - `try_files $uri $uri/ =404;` has been changed to `try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;` - and ` location ~ \.php$ { ... }` block has been added. Restart nginx. ``` sudo service nginx restart ``` If all was configured well, you'd see no error. ## SWAP file (Optional) Swap files would help in cases where your server might run out of memory. ``` sudo fallocate -l 1G /swapfile sudo mkswap /swapfile sudo swapon /swapfile ``` ## Install Composer and Laravel Use the following commands to install composer and make it available across all folders. ``` cd ~ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer ``` Test by `composer` command to see if it was installed correctly. Install laravel by using the following command. ``` sudo composer create-project laravel/laravel /var/www/laravel ``` In case it throws out errors due to missing packages, find the package name using ``` sudo service php7.0-fpm restart ``` and then remove and create the folder before running the composer create-project again. ``` sudo rm -rf /var/www/laravel sudo mkdir /var/www/laravel ``` ## Setting the permissions right for the Laravel folders. ``` sudo chown -R :www-data /var/www/laravel sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www/laravel/storage ``` ### Finish Check your site by `http://server_domain_or_IP` and it should show you "Laravel" homepage. ### Other commands of use. Installed a package that you don't need? Use the following commands to remove the package. ``` sudo apt-get purge <package name> sudo apt-get autoremove --purge ``` Use following command to remove a folder and it's contents ``` sudo rm -rfv <folder_name> ``` Test PHP version ``` php -v ``` ### Setup additional hosts This is covered in [this gist](https://gist.github.com/santoshachari/8238a7a4e7132d3c86a8720a81cd9fa1). Both gists were written in continuation.
