Question

I am new to laravel. I am trying to configure laravel accoring to tutorial https://github.com/jasonlewis/laravel-blog/wiki/Creating-a-simple-blog-in-Laravel-3. I have created admin folder but when I am trying to run http://localhost/blog/admin, I am getting the following error :

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator at postmaster@localhost to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/2.4.2 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.1c PHP/5.4.4 Server at localhost Port 80

while on localhost/blog. It is going perfect, what should I do ?

Answer 1

Make sure your document root is pointed at localhost/blog/public/. If localhost/blog pulls up the Laravel splash screen OR whatever you'd set in the home view, then it's an htaccess issue. Most likely it's the document root not headed in the right direction.

Answer 2

Make sure your folders have 755 permission. I cleared this issue with permission. This is first thing do any others. You can get successful output.

Thanks
