Creating a project in laravel

To create a project in laravel, run

Code:

cd ~/www composer create-project laravel/laravel your-project-name --prefer-dist

Lets say, you want to create a site YOURNAME.DEV, you run

Code:

cd ~/www composer create-project laravel/laravel yourname.dev --prefer-dist

Now you will see a folder yourname.dev in your www folder.

composer will download many files required for laravel and put them in vendor folder.

Now to start built-in dev server, run

Code:

cd ~/www/yourname.dev php artisan serve

For you, the commands will be

Code:

cd ~/www composer create-project laravel/laravel sherly.dev --prefer-dist

Once composer finished it work, you need to do

Code:

cd ~/www/sherly.dev php artisan serve

When I run below command:

php artisan serve

I get following result:

Code:

sherly@HOME:~/www$ cd ~/www/sherly.dev sherly@HOME:~/www/sherly.dev$ php artisan serve Mcrypt PHP extension required. sherly@HOME:~/www/sherly.dev$

This is because PHP extension Mycrypt not installed on your computer. To install, run

Code:

sudo apt-get install php5-crypt sudo php5enmod mcrypt sudo service apache2 restart

Tell me if that fixed the problem.

Please find the result as follows:

Code:

sherly@HOME:~/www/sherly.dev$ sudo apt-get install php5-crypt [sudo] password for sherly: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package php5-crypt sherly@HOME:~/www/sherly.dev$ sudo php5enmod mcrypt WARNING: Module mcrypt ini file doesn't exist under /etc/php5/mods-available WARNING: Module mcrypt ini file doesn't exist under /etc/php5/mods-available sherly@HOME:~/www/sherly.dev$ sudo service apache2 restart * Restarting web server apache2 AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1.

@sherly

When running commands, be careful. Read what it says. Your first command itself failed. Then stop and inventigate. Don't continue with further commands if first one failed.

When running a group of commands, don't run all at once, run one at a time, read what computers says, if it was success or failure.

Code:

sherly@HOME:~/www/sherly.dev$ sudo apt-get install php5-crypt [sudo] password for sherly: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package php5-crypt

See, server can't find the package with name php5-crypt.

Actual name of the package is

Code:

php5-mcrypt

So run

Code:

sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt

I am not fixing first post, that is error on my part. Lets keep that error, so others follow this post know what to do when an error happens or something did not work. Read what computer said and try to understand. No 6th sense needed here.

Run

Code:

cd ~/www/yourname.dev php artisan serve

Paste the result here. So we can see what it will be like when built-in web server working properly.
