My laravel installation was working fine yesterday but today I get the following error:

Forbidden

You don\'t have permission to access / on this server.

Answer 1

First, update your Virtual Host configuration;

    ServerName example.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example-project/public
    
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    

Then, change both permission and ownership of the asset as illustrated below.

$ sudo chgrp -R www-data /var/www/html/example-project
$ sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/example-project
