Nginx server laravel route directory 404 error on Windows
If you're encountering a 404 error when trying to access Laravel routes on an Nginx server running on Windows, there could be a few reasons for this issue. Here's a step-by-step troubleshooting guide:
Nginx Configuration:
Ensure that your Nginx configuration is correctly set up to route requests to the Laravel application. The
location
block in your Nginx configuration file (nginx.conf
or a custom site configuration file) should be configured to direct requests to the Laravel public directory.Example configuration:
perlserver {
listen 80;
server_name yourdomain.com;
root path/to/laravel/public;
index index.php;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
}
}
Document Root:
Make sure that the
root
directive in your Nginx configuration points to thepublic
directory within your Laravel project.URL Rewrite:
If you're using Laravel's built-in development server (
php artisan serve
), it might not work as expected with Nginx on Windows. Instead, use Nginx to serve your Laravel application.PHP-FPM:
Ensure that you have PHP-FPM configured correctly and listening on the appropriate port (e.g., 9000) as specified in the
fastcgi_pass
directive in your Nginx configuration.Permissions:
Check the file and folder permissions within your Laravel project directory. Ensure that the Nginx user has appropriate read and execute permissions.
Cache and Configuration:
Clear Laravel's cache and configuration using the following commands:
arduinophp artisan cache:clear
php artisan config:clear
URL Format:
Make sure you're accessing your Laravel routes using the correct URL format. For example, if you're using the built-in development server's URL format (
http://localhost:8000/route
), ensure you're using a similar format when accessing the routes through Nginx.Restart Services:
After making any changes to your Nginx configuration or Laravel application, restart both Nginx and your PHP-FPM service to ensure the changes take effect.
Logs:
Check the Nginx and Laravel logs for any error messages that might provide insights into the issue.
Environment:
Ensure that you're using a compatible setup for Laravel on Windows. Some issues might arise due to compatibility between Laravel and Windows.
Remember to adjust the configuration and paths in the provided example to match your specific setup. If you're still facing issues, providing more specific error messages and details about your configuration could help in diagnosing the problem accurately.
