Installation Guide for Application Laravel Application and MySQL Database

Below is a guide to help you install and configure an older Laravel application with an existing
MySQL database.

Installation Guide for Legacy Laravel Application

1. Prerequisites

● PHP version compatible with your Laravel version (e.g., PHP 8.x)
● Composer (for PHP package management)
● A web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx)
● MySQL or other supported database systems

2. Install Dependencies (Optional)


Install PHP dependencies using Composer:
bash
Copy code
composer install

3. Configure Environment File


Copy the example environment file to create your .env file if it doesn’t already exist:
bash
Copy code
cp .env.example .env
Open the .env file and configure your database and other environment variables:
plaintext
Copy code
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=your_database_name
DB_USERNAME=your_database_username
DB_PASSWORD=your_database_password

4. Generate Application Key


Generate a new application key if not already set:
bash
Copy code
php artisan key:generate
5. Import the Database
If you have an existing MySQL database backup file (e.g., .sql), import it into your MySQL
server:
bash
Copy code
mysql -u your_database_username -p your_database_name < [path-to-your-database-file.sql]

1. Ensure that the database credentials in your .env file match the credentials of the
imported database.

6. Set File Permissions


Ensure that the storage and bootstrap/cache directories are writable:
bash
Copy code
chmod -R 775 storage
chmod -R 775 bootstrap/cache

7. Start the Development Server (Optional)


Start the Laravel development server to check if everything is working:
bash
Copy code
php artisan serve

1. The application should now be accessible at http://localhost:8000 by default.

Web Server Configuration

1. Apache: Ensure that the .htaccess file is properly configured in the public directory to
handle URL rewriting.

Nginx: Set up the Nginx server block to point to the public directory of your Laravel application.
Here’s a basic configuration example:
nginx
Copy code
server {
listen 80;
server_name your_domain_or_ip;

root /path/to/your/laravel/public;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock; # Adjust PHP version and socket path as necessary
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
}

location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}

2.

Additional Notes

● For applications, ensure you have the correct PHP version and compatible extensions.
● If there are specific Laravel packages or plugins used in the application, make sure they
are also installed and configured properly.
