Is "Sites" folder should be created automatically after installation of the laravel? When installation finished there wasn't any "Sites" folder :(. And bash can't understand the "laravel" command?

hello, I am using ubuntu 14.04, so can you help me where i can find this zshrc file?

Laravel is awful to install on windows. First you get the mcrypt error which, despite having the files and pointing to them in your php.ini file, still cannot be found. Then you have the php artisan which simply will not work on a windows machine unless you go through all that bollocks with the virtual machine.

I agree Laravel is a step in the right direction but in terms of cross compatibility on OS it leaves a lot to be desired.

Hi, I am using El Capitan on Mac, faced a couple of issues when I followed your tutorial.

1. Could not change composer.phar to just composer. It keeps on saying that the file cannot be found or something. I have found a workaround (I think) by using php composer.phar instead. I am quite certain this is the wrong step!

2. I tried changing the directory to Sites, but I get shown: Johns-MacBook-Air:~ johnchen$ cd ~/Sites
-bash: cd: /Users/johnchen/Sites: No such file or directory

Please help... Thanks! Great tutorial!

hey im following this tutorial on ubuntu 14.04 but when i got to my app it just forwards me to a yahoo DNS solution. I'll type in my_ip_address:8000 just like how the terminal is telling me but not giving me that laravel page. Any ideas?
