使用共享主机在附加域上安装laravel应用

Question

I've searched up and down and while there are a lot of the same solutions out there that show how to do this, none of them seem to be working (surely, I having something configured wrong here).

I am trying to deploy a laravel app on an addon domain with shared hosting.

I have uploaded my app (all but the public folder) along side the public_html folder (same level, not inside it).

Structure: https://imgur.com/a/fiyGxzC

I've taken everything from the public folder and put it inside a folder on the addon domain.

Ex.: public_html/mysite.com/laravel/

Note that I've substituted my actual username and domain with placeholders here (obviously)

This is where it gets tricky for me. I've tried adjusting the paths in the public_html/mysite.com/laravel/index.php file, but the DIR method/command seems to be grabbing from the wrong directory and I get the following errors:

Warning: require(/home1/username/public_html/mysite.com/laravel/../../laravelapp/bootstrap/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home1/username/public_html/mysite.com/laravel/index.php on line 22

Warning: require(/home1/username/public_html/mysite.com/laravel/../../laravelapp/bootstrap/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home1/username/public_html/mysite.com/laravel/index.php on line 22

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/home1/username/public_html/mysite.com/laravel/../../laravelapp/bootstrap/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/opt/php71/lib/php') in /home1/username/public_html/mysite.com/laravel/index.php on line 22

Do note that I've tried modifying to document root by trying it with a subdomain, but ran into the same type of errors.

Also note that when I put the entire app (including public) inside a folder inside the addon domain (ex.: mysite.com/testing), I was able to get things working, but the images and styles would not load. I know this is a security risk, so I'm trying to do it the correct way now and get everything running smoothly.

Some help here would be greatly appreciated - been on this for 2 days now. Thanks a lot! Sorry for any redundancy here.

Edit: I've also tried modifying my path in the server.php (this was suggested on another solution) to "../public_html/mysite.com/laravel/index.php" and to no avail as well.

Answer 1

You said you put your app on the same level as public_html. That means on /home1/username but you only use two .. which maps to /home1/username/public_html

You should use it three times /home1/username/public_html/mysite.com/laravel/../../../
