Hi Guys,

Today, I will explain to you how to install laravel 9 on ubuntu. we will show the step-by-step install of laravel 9 on ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04. I will first install composer on ubuntu.

Here, I will give you a full example for laravel 9 install in ubuntu example as below.

In this step, We will download the composer using the below command.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl
sudo curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Now we move the composer.phar file into the bin folder and set the permission for all users.

sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/composer

Now this step, I will move on root directory “/var/www/html” and .download and install fresh laravel.

cd /var/www/html
composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

After the installation of laravel 9, we need permission for the new directory. so we will set permission using the below command.

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/blog/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/blog/

Here in this step, we will configure the Apache2 site configuration file for Laravel. Run the below command to create a new configuration file. like laravel.conf

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/laravel.conf

After creating a file, copy and paste below the code in this file and save it.

<VirtualHost *:80>   
    ServerAdmin admin@example.com
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html/blog/public
        ServerName example.com

    <Directory /var/www/html/blog/public>
        Options +FollowSymlinks
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

After the configuring Apache2 server. We will need to enable laravel virtual host site and Apache2 rewrite module. so we will enable using the below command.

sudo a2ensite laravel.conf
sudo a2enmod rewrite

Now the follow all the above changes. We will need to restart Apache2 using the below command.

sudo service apache2 restart

All steps have been done, now you have to type the given command and hit enter to run the laravel app:

php artisan serve

Now, you have to open web browser, type the given URL and view the app output:

http://localhost:8000

It will help you...
