This guy is amazing, nice way to explain, most professional laravel's tutorial I've seen. Keep going my friend, if you have paid tutorials ready to buy.

Thanx a lot for the second part of this tutorial.
One thing I spent some time to figure out: if you use a password with special characters, make sure to wrap it with quotation marks in your .env file. Otherwise it will be cut off at the first special character and you will not be able to connect to your database.
The same goes for your app name: if you have blank characters you need to wrap it in quotation marks.

I appreciate all but i think this awesome tutorial deserves an auto-deployment process :)

[bomirhocode]

Thank you a lot for tutorial. Nearly two years old but still working great.
One question. How can I go back to .env file to edit it?

[chonyou]

I had permission issues. I followed your instruction to change the permission in the storage and bootstrap/cache directory and got it working. Thank you very much. Do you think you can add a tutorial for apache in addition to Nginx?

If I want to setup a bare ubuntu laptop for develop environment, is it ok to follow the same process? (Apart from env stuff)

[hendisantika]

What if I want to setup nginx but I don't have any domain yet? How can I setup that nginx file? Or having a domain is a must?

[ivansavchenco]

Could you please put source documentation in the video description or just answer on my comment - where all the commands you mentioned are listed? In the documentation to linux, or maybe in the documentation to ngnix? Thanks in advance.

hey guys if you had issue around 14:00 minute mark trying to git clone. I kept getting error that fatal: destination path '.' already exits.


all you do is: (use sudo for the commands)
mkdir first-project
cd first-project
git init
git remote add origin <repo>
git pull origin master

Great tutorial, I have a small recommendation though, it's preferable to run composer install with the --no-dev flag so you don't install the dev dependencies on the server.

[contexttranslationservice]

I have an issue: when I ran a command "composer install", here is my error: Composer could not find a composer.json file in /var/www/html/first-project
