如何避免在Laravel 4中列出目录

Question

I am new to Laravel4, I was trying to run laravel4 on a shared hosting.Since I dont have root access, to avoid public in my url. I have moved all the contents in the public directory to "public_html" folder.

Then I changed the locations in respective files. But when I visited url "abc.com/myapp/app", it lists all the folders and files under app directory. Since it exposes the project files, I was looking to avoid the same.

In CodeIgniter if we try to access folders like this it gives message

"Directory access is forbidden."

Edit:

I have added

Options All FollowSymLinks MultiViews -Indexes

in a .htaccess file in the app folder as per suggested by @valey viktorovsky

Answer 1

There are multiple methods...

The easy one:
If you have access to .htaccess file and you can modify it, place this little code

Options -Indexes  

Annoying one
If you cannot create/modify .htaccess file, create index.html file inside each folder you would like to protect
