I started to develop a project with laravel. I installed it using this link [how-to-install-laravel-on-ubuntu-lamp][1].

I installed `composer` successfully, and using this command : `sudo composer create-project laravel/laravel /home/egz-pc/laravel-project` I created new project named `laravel-project` then a changed permissions using chmod 777 command.I restart apache and execute my project.

My problem is that when I type in browser:

I'm getting an error: `The requested URL /laravel-project was not found on this server.` If I create a project in /var/www/html on my local host I have no problems, and that error does not appear. What can I do?

The Apache server is installed on var/www/html.This is the default root directory of apache.

Either change the root directory of Apache or move the project to var/www/html.

To change Apache's root directory,

Run

cd /etc/apache2/sites-available

Then open the 000-default.conf file using the command

nano 000-default.conf

Edit the DocumentRoot

Then restart the apache server

sudo service apache2 restart

----------
If you get "Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server" after changing the root of apache then do follow these steps

1.Find the apache2.conf located in etc/apache2 and open it using

nano apache2.conf
2.Use ctrl+w and search for Directory (It should be in line 153)

3.It should look like this

<Directory />
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all denied
</Directory>

4.Change it to

<Directory />
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>

5.Restart apache2 and it should work.

EDIT:

I have made a script that lets you change Apache root directory in 1 command.
