Question: How to Deploy Laravel on Vestacp Ubunto Server

[ypildex03]

I have finished my laravel application and I wanted to deploy to vps server, I have also successfully setup my vps server with vestacp and it's running and working very well. I've tried to search on google but I could not find any step by step tutorial and my knowledge on server administration is very limited. Hoping for someone could teach me. Thank you in advance.

check the templates in /usr/local/vesta/data/templates/web/apache2, copy the default.tpl and default.stpl to (for example) laravel.tpl and laravel.stpl and modify the docroot (add public). Then you can choose the new template and laravel should run without any troubles.

If you are trying to deploy the latest Laravel (5.6) you probably need to upgrade your PHP

Laravel 5.6 Server Requirements:

PHP >= 7.1.3
OpenSSL PHP Extension
PDO PHP Extension
Mbstring PHP Extension
Tokenizer PHP Extension
XML PHP Extension
Ctype PHP Extension
JSON PHP Extension

Thank you for your response .. My laravel version is 5.5. And already upgraded the php version to 7.1 since the minimum version is 7.1 for laravel 5.5.

Thank you for this guide. May I know where to put or in what directory should I put my whole laravel apps? I'm using github to clone my laravel app.

Also tried this one by peterbrinck https://gist.github.com/peterbrinck/266 ... 70be27edc3
but I was not able to work. I'm little bit confused or I dont get this part of the instruction

Then, when you edit your domain/site, you can change the web template to Laravel and just upload your whole project into public_html

what or w/c web template he/she is referring to?

no need to be so gender friendly xD

If you set the files in your template folder like it is described on your link (https://gist.github.com/peterbrinck/266 ... 70be27edc3) ypu will get a new template called laravel. This new template you can set, when you log in with admin, then clicl on login on the right user, go to web, then edit the wanted domain and set the apache2 template to laravel (normaly from default). that's really not so hard...

I've followed the instruction as what instructed here.

Each file should be put in /usr/local/vesta/data/templates/web/apache2

I put the file in the in their respective location..




And change the web template to laravel and restarted apache2.

Which VPS are you using? If it's DigitalOcean, they have a pretty good documentation that could help you in deployment. Otherwise you can check out there marketplace to see if there is any one-click deployment solution there. Have you tried using PHP deployment tools, like Envoyer or DeployBot. These tools can make the deployment process simpler. For example with Envoyer you have to connect your Envoyer account with github and your server through ssh keys and deploy your app from github to the server through this tool. For this to work, you must have created a repo of your Laravel project that is on your localhost.
