File and Folder permission for Laravel

Run these commands on your terminal to set up proper permission for your Laravel project files and folders.

sudo find /path/to/your/laravel/root/directory -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;
sudo find /path/to/your/laravel/root/directory -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
sudo chown -R my-user:www-data /path/to/your/laravel/root/directory

You will also need to change permission for your storage folder and cache folder inside the bootstrap folder.

cd /path/to/your/laravel/root/directory
sudo chgrp -R www-data storage bootstrap/cache
sudo chmod -R ug+rwx storage bootstrap/cache
