Why “no such file or directory … autoload.php” when accessing Laravel app?

Question

I am a newbie to Laravel, have been trying to install Laravel, wasted three hours unfortunately didn\'t work. When I access through public directory, I get these errors:

Answer 1

Just make your storage folder writable. This can be found in your app directory

In your terminal use this command

chmod +w  or chmod a+w 

Make sure you navigate to the directory containing the directory you want to make writable or you point to that path.
