So i searched the first 2 pages of google for it but i cant seem to get it straight so, the problem is that i have the ip adress and the username and the password for the server and i can connect to it over cmd with ssh username#ipadress but i cant upload my laravel app there.
I installed apache2, nginx, and a lot of other packages for php and composer, but all the tutorials show me how to create a new laravel app there, which is not what i need because i developed the project and i just need to put it up there on the server i will let here a photo of the cmd right after i installed the composer and laravel on it
the cmd ss
what should i do next ? or how should i upload it...
are you using git ?
if not first setup git and upload your project to git
then in git you have option deploy project
in that option generate deployment key and use that to clone/deploy your
project into the server.

My website is running smoothly with Laravel in a sub-domain, but now I have added a new dependency https://github.com/PHPOffice/PHPExcel to my local project using composer require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet.
The code is already working fine in my local environment, but now I need to push my new changes to the website.
Pushing the controllers, routes, views, etc it's easy, but how do I push the dependency?
I have full access to the cPanel
I can create SSH keys
The project is running in a sub-domain
I'm using Visual Studio Code
I have generated a private and public key for SSH
I have initially deployed my Laravel project to the server using FTP Filezilla
For what I have read so far, I should be using SSH with PuTTY, but if I could use an extension in Visual Studio Code, would be great.
Composer stores all the imported libraries in the /vendor folder. When you push your local copy of the website up, it will push up the vendor folder and you'll be set.
If you're working on a remote server and you need to still download the dependencies, run
php composer.phar update
That will download the dependencies for the project. You'll need to run it from the command line (ssh) and be in the website directory.
Some companies don't allow ssh access to the server. In that case, you can run php composer.phar update on your local machine, assuming you have a php runtime install (WAMP, XXAMP, ect). Then when you push or copy your code to your server, the libraries will be included.
Well I can create SSH keys but don't have access to login with them. With that said I follow the tutorial here https://laraveldaily.com/laravel-and-shared-hosting-working-with-ftp-and-phpmyadmin/ that teaches how to use FTP to upload/update the application.
I have created a react-laravel project using laravel-mix. Right now I am run project using
npm run watch
php artisan serve
So by this, I access project by : http://localhost:8000
I have also worked in laravel. In laravel, if we want to access project without php artisan serve then we can access using : http://localhost/project_name/public.
Now my question is, how can I access/execute react-laravel project without php artisan serve? Is there any kind of way to access/execute project without port? Because I want to set up react-laravel on live server and I don't want to continue open terminal on server after code uploading.
I will really appreciate your feedbacks.
There are a multitude of ways to set up a laravel project. and it has nothing to do with the frontend suite you use whether its React or Vue, I will give you 2 options here to run a laravel application.
1. vagrant/homestead
Laravel Homestead is an official, pre-packaged Vagrant box that provides you a wonderful development environment without requiring you to install PHP, a web server, and any other server software on your local machine. No more worrying about messing up your operating system! Vagrant boxes are completely disposable. If something goes wrong, you can destroy and re-create the box in minutes!

2. XAMPP/WAMP/ or any LAMP stack
XAMPP is a completely free, easy to install Apache distribution containing MariaDB, PHP, and Perl. The XAMPP open source package has been set up to be incredibly easy to install and to use.

Personally I prefer Laravel Homestead since it contains everything out of the box for laravel Development. like PHP, Nginx, MariaDB, Node, etc...
what my aim here is to, upload my project that is basically a controller returning a twig template its as simple as that, i just cant figure out how to get it on the hosting.
I have been using symfony for a few months now, so still new to it all. and all the hosting/details stuff is new too me.
Whats throwing me off is my understanding of a hosting web/ folder
and how azures its wwwroot/
i used this website
http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/deployment/azure-website.html
but i'm finding it rather difficult to follow it..
does anyone have any better sites with more clear steps on how to deploy? i've read a lot about a public_html folder but i've never heard/used it before
If someone could explain how the www.domain.com/web/app.php works that would help, i know that, that is the file that is called, but not too sure if i need to say call this file "app.php" or if its done kinda like the way a standard websites looks for 'index.php'
any kinda help or pointers would be much appreciated here as i'm kinda lost
Generally, we can build our project and test on local, then deploy on Azure Web Apps via Git or FTP tools.
Here is my test steps:
Build Symfony project on local, referring Using the Symfony full-stack framework
Login to Azure preview Portal, click NEW=> Web+Mobile=> Marketplace, in Web Apps section click Web app + MySQL, then click create.
When finishing creating Web app service, we can find MySQL connection string in Settings=>Application settings=>Connection strings click show connection string.
then click Set up continuous deployment in Deployment section. Select Local Git Repository for the source. Then in Essentials section, we can find there added a Git URL. Copy it.
In your local symfony project, make sure your Symfony repository has a .gitignore file at its root directory with at least the following contents:
/app/bootstrap.php.cache
/app/cache/*
/app/config/parameters.yml
/app/logs/*
!app/cache/.gitkeep
!app/logs/.gitkeep
/app/SymfonyRequirements.php
/build/
/vendor/
/bin/
/composer.phar
/web/app_dev.php
/web/bundles/
/web/config.php
run the following commands to init git repo and first-time push to Azure:
`
git init
git add .
git commit -m "initial commit"
git remote add azure [URL for remote repository]
git push azure master
Sign on Kudu console of your Azure web site, at https://<your-website-name>.scm.azurewebsites.net/DebugConsole, run following commands:
cd site\wwwroot
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar install
Now visit http://<your-website-name>.azurewebsites.net/web/app.php in browser, we should see the project.
Now we need to configure URL rewrite to remove /web/app.php pattern of the url. Add a file named web.config with the content shown in Deploying to Microsoft Azure Website Cloud in the root directory which is /site/wwwroot on Azure. Click restart on Azure portal, now we can visit the site at http://<your-website-name>.azurewebsites.net .
By the way, for deploying a PHP-MySQL application on Azure Web Apps, we can get more information at Create a PHP-MySQL web app in Azure App Service and deploy using Git. And specifically for Symfony project, the Symfony guide is still useful, and we can ignore section Enabling the PHP intl Extension .
If you can't change the name of the "wwwroot" directory to "web", you have to change the configuration of symfony to use "wwwroot" instead.
Have a look at this page!
I think the easiest solution is the one with the symlink:
Some shared hosts have a public_html web directory root. Renaming your web directory from web to public_html is one way to make your Symfony project work on your shared host. Another way is to deploy your application to a directory outside of your web root, delete your public_html directory, and then replace it with a symbolic link to the web in your project.
For example:
I have a Homestead with Laravel in Virtual Machine. After I finish my project could I just copy the files and bring them to my Wamp server, and export the database and import it into Wamp?
Or is there more behind all this?
Yes, generally this could be one way to deploy a project to a server.
The question is a bit broad to give a good answer because there are many ways how to built a good project deploy chain. First of all it depends on the server you are deploying to and the access rights you have (e.g. are you allowed to ssh into the server or can you run git at your server).
If you have ssh access and you are able to run git a good way could be to pull the git project from your git server, run composer install and migrate and seed your database with artisan.
There are even more ways up to full integrated deploy chains where you just need to push your project to a git server to trigger a deploy (e.g have a look at Capistrano or Laravel Forge for automated deploy).
I'm in a trouble trying to install phpBB on openshift.
I have created a php5.3 cartridge with PostgreSQL: I unpack phpbb on a folder of my app, I push the change, then I run the installation form the browser.
The forum installation is successful.
In the end I need to delete the "install" folder in order to enable the forum.
I tried it on my standalone wampp server and it works.
So I delete it in my repo, and I commit and push the change.
When the app restarts it automatically tries to go back to the installation: everything is broken.
It seems the push breaks the configuration on the server side.
I also have tried to change the name of the directory using ssh connection, and move the install directory name: this is uneffective.
What's the problem here?
The problem is that if you deploy the phpBB package as downloaded from official website app the files will go on app-deployments with are not persistent on git changes and can not be pull to local. You can try using the OpenShift quickdeply version of phpBB (https://github.com/openshift-quickstart/phpbb-example) that deploys the files to app-root/data (I think :S) and this reamins untouched on git changes.
The "install" folder is at app-root/runtime/repo/php
