When I run Composer update in my project then I got this error.

[ErrorException]
  file_put_contents(./composer.lock): failed to open stream: Permission denied

Solution

It can be resolved with the following command:

sudo chown -R $USER ~/.composer/

That’s all.

I hope this article helps you to fix your issue.

I’m getting this error after migrating my laravel project to linux server, see error below

UnexpectedValueException: The stream or file "/opt/lampp/htdocs/testproject/storage/logs/laravel-2021-08-31.log" could not be opened in append mode: failed to open stream: Permission denied in file /opt/lampp/htdocs/testproject/vendor/monolog/monolog/src/Monolog/Handler/StreamHandler.php on line 110

Solution

the error is that, Storage folder doesn’t have permission to write log files, you can run

 chmod -R o+w projectname/storage
 chmod -R o+w projectname/bootstrap

if you are using nginx then you need to use nginx user permission like below

sudo chown -R nginx:root storage
sudo chown -R nginx:root bootstrap

That’s All.

I hope this article helps you to solve the problem.

This usually occurs when using of Laravel Socialite for authentication

Socialite

In addition to typical, form based authentication, Laravel also provides a simple, convenient way to authenticate with OAuth providers using Laravel Socialite. Socialite currently supports authentication with Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google, GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket.

Error

Argument 1 passed to Illuminate\Auth\SessionGuard::login() must implement interface Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable, null given, called in C:\xampp\htdocs\WrokSpace\professional\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Auth\AuthManager.php on line 297

Solution

Just delete the social provider assigned to that user id from your database table and that’s it.

Thankyou

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel testingcronjob "5.8.*"

Step 2 :- Now, we need to create a custom command. Custom command will execute with task scheduling cron job. Run the below command to create new custom command

php artisan make:command DemoCron --command=demo:cron

Now we make some changes on Command file.

app/Console/Commands/DemoCron.php

<?php
   
namespace App\Console\Commands;
   
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
   
class DemoCron extends Command
{
    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'demo:cron';
    
    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = 'Command description';
    
    /**
     * Create a new command instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
    }
    
    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        \Log::info("Cron is working fine!");
     
        /*
           Write your database logic we bellow:
           Item::create(['name'=>'hello new']);
        */
      
        $this->info('Demo:Cron Cummand Run successfully!');
    }
}

Step 3 :- Now, we need to define our commands on Kernel.php file with time when you want to run your command like as bellow functions:

app/Console/Kernel.php

<?php
   
namespace App\Console;
    
use Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Console\Kernel as ConsoleKernel;
    
class Kernel extends ConsoleKernel
{
    /**
     * The Artisan commands provided by your application.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $commands = [
        Commands\DemoCron::class,
    ];
     
    /**
     * Define the application's command schedule.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule  $schedule
     * @return void
     */
    protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
    {
        $schedule->command('demo:cron')
                 ->everyMinute();
    }
     
    /**
     * Register the commands for the application.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    protected function commands()
    {
        $this->load(__DIR__.'/Commands');
     
        require base_path('routes/console.php');
    }
}

Step 4 :- Now We’re ready to run our cron. You can manually check using following command of your cron.Run bellow command:

php artisan schedule:run

After running above command, now you can check log file where we already print some text. So open your log file it looks like as bellow:

storage/logs/laravel-2021-08-16.php

Now our Cron is Working fine, But we want to run cron at every minute in our Linux Server, So for that folow the below Steps.

========================= NOTE START ==========================

Crontab Date / Time Format

 * * * * *  command to execute
 │ │ │ │ │
 │ │ │ │ │
 │ │ │ │ └───── day of week(0-6)(0 to 6 are Sunday to Saturday, or use names; 7 is Sunday, the same as 0)
 │ │ │ └────────── month (1 - 12)
 │ │ └─────────────── day of month (1 - 31)
 │ └──────────────────── hour (0 - 23)
 └───────────────────────── min (0 - 59)

========================= NOTE END ==========================

Step 5 :- Now login into your server and navigate to /etc and run below command

sudo crontab -e

After running command you’ll get output like below image, just select easiest

In my case it’s 2, so I typed 2 and hit enter.

now add single entry on crontab file

* * * * * php /path/to/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1


OR

* * * * * cd /path-to-your-project && php artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1

I’m running on my linux server so i’ve added path to my artisan file of my laravel project, see below

my code

* * * * * php /opt/lampp/htdocs/testingcronjob/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1

It’s Done. I hope this article help you.

So i’m providing a complete list of each folder’s and sub-folder’s permissions.

1. storage – 755.
   
   
2. storage/app – 755.
   storage/app/public – 755.

Step :1 Create a folder anywhere in your local computer with any name (Mine is workspace)

Step:2 Make sure git and gitbash is installed in your local machine if not download it from here

Step:3 Login into your GitHub account and create a repository

Step 4: Clone the repository into your local machine

• get inside your repository

• Copy the URL under HTTPS area
• There are many more ways to clone a repo but for time being use this method
• Now get inside our workspace folder that we created before (local/workspace)
• right click and open git bash or command line inside the folder

• Run these git commands to get started

git init 

This is to initialize a new, empty repository 

git clone https://github.com/pradeeprjth/laravelTestingProject.git [HTTPS_URL_YOU_COPYED_FROM_GITHUB] 

This will clone everything stored in your remote repository into your local folder/repository
You will find a folder with the same name you created your repository 

Step :5 paste your project/code inside the folder you just clone from the repository

• Again run the below commands to push all the changes and codes back to the repository
• Right click and open your git bash or cmd inside the folder

git add .

The git add command adds a file to the Git staging area. This area contains a list of all the files you have recently changed.

git commit -m"first_commit"

git commit creates a commit, which is like a snapshot of your repository. These commits are snapshots of your entire repository at specific times. and you need to specify a commit message using -m flag including double quote

git push origin master    or    git push origin main 

git push -u origin master is used for pushing local content to GitHub

Step 6: Login to your remote machine or ubuntu machine and make sure xampp and composer is installed in that machine.

Follow this blog if xampp and composer are not installed in your remote/ubuntu machine

1. Installed Xampp

How to install and Configure XAMPP on Ubuntu?

This blog is written by Rajesh thanks to him.

2. Another thing which is required is Composer

Install composer using CLI in ubuntu (Globally)

Follow this to install composer in your machine using CLI

Stpe :7 Go to your htdocs folder or if you have lampp then www folder and run below commands

git init 

 This is to initialize a new, empty repository but this time inside your remote machine 

git clone https://github.com/pradeeprjth/laravelTestingProject.git [HTTPS_URL_YOU_COPYED_FROM_GITHUB]

Now as we already have pushed all our code into our repository so we'll get all the files folder into our htdocs folder or www folder 

Step 8: Now to run the project we need to do some configuration

• Copy the .env.example file to .env coz git ignore some files and folder including our vendor folder which contains all our Laravel project files . To do this run the below command.

cp .env.example .env

• Install composer, as git ignores our vendor folder in order to get it back we need to run

composer install

• You may get an error while composer install
• Class ‘Illuminate\Support\facades\Schema not found
• In order to solve this go to your project folder in local and inside C:\xampp\htdocs\WrokSpace\laravelTestproject\app\Providers\AppServiceProvider.php
• use this class in the top
  use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

• Next thing is to set the APP_KEY value in your .env file, run the command below

php artisan key:generate

Step 9: Now go to your browser and put your ip followed by the project name /public to visit the application

http://90.437.1965.252/laravelTestproject/public/

That’s it hope it help’s someone out there.

"^(?=.*[A-Za-z])(?=.*\d)[A-Za-z\d]{8,}$"

Minimum eight characters, at least one letter, one number and one special character:

"^(?=.*[A-Za-z])(?=.*\d)(?=.*[@$!%*#?&])[A-Za-z\d@$!%*#?&]{8,}$"

Minimum eight characters, at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter and one number:

"^(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*\d)[a-zA-Z\d]{8,}$"

Minimum eight characters, at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number and one special character:

"^(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*\d)(?=.*[@$!%*?&])[A-Za-z\d@$!%*?&]{8,}$"

Minimum eight and maximum 10 characters, at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number and one special character:

"^(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*\d)(?=.*[@$!%*?&])[A-Za-z\d@$!%*?&]{8,10}$"

First permission:

As you know the first thing our browser needs to run a Laravel project is, the index file which is located in the public folder
so we need to make it read and writable so that our browser can access it and if required can modify it.

Run the below command to grant access to the public folder

cd /opt/lampp/htdocs/YOUR_PROJECT
sudo chmod -R +rw public

Second permission:

The next permission if for the storage folder, as you already know when our Laravel projects runs it create some logs files automatically if any error found in you code base,

Run the below command to grant access to the logs folder

cd /opt/lampp/htdocs/YOUR_PROJECT
sudo chmod -R +rw storage

Third permission:

At the end, the final permission we have to give to our session folder which is located inside our storage/framework folder,
and every time we hit our project URL a new random session key is generated, that get stored in our session folder
so all of them are necessary to run a Laravel project

Run the below command to grand access to the framework and session

sudo chmod -R 775 framework
sudo chmod -R 775 session

That’s it, these all works for me hope it for you too

1. Installed Xampp

2. Another thing which is required is Composer

3. Now the thing is when we try to install Laravel project inside our htdocs folder it through an error

4. To resolve this error first create a folder inside your htdocs.

mkdir Projects

5 grant read and write permissions to this folder by running this commands

sude chmod +rw Projects

6. You may get another error while installing is (“mbstring” extension is missing.)

Run the below commands to resolve these errors

sudo apt-get install php-mbstring

sudo su - root

7. That’s it now try installing your project again

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel testProject "5.8.*"

That’s it, Hope it help someone out there.

I was trying to install Laravel in a Ubuntu virtual machine and got this error

And To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:

But in your server you’re missing ext-dom. php-xml has all the related packages you need. So, you can simply install it by running:

sudo apt install php-xml

Most likely you are missing mbstring too. If you get the error, install this package as well with:

sudo apt-get install php-mbstring

Then run:

composer update
composer require cviebrock/eloquent-sluggable

First of all we need to get a google maps API, go through this documentation to get an API of your own.

Next thing we need to do is to put a initializing script in our blade file

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&callback=initAutocomplete&libraries=places&v=weekly"async></script>

• Make sure to provide your api key in the script

The above script will call a method name initAutocomplete that we have to write in our .js file

<form> 
   <div class="row mt-3">
     <div class="col-md-12">
       <input type="text" id="address-input" name="address1" class="form-control" value="">
      <input type="hidden" name="address_latitude" id="address-latitude" value="" required/ >
      <input type="hidden" name="address_longitude" id="address-longitude" value="" required/>
     </div>
   </div>
   <div><button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit">Save Profile</button>
 </div>
</form>

• Make sure you form have these matching selectors

What i have done in above code

• In the above code the first method initAutocomplete() method is initializing by our script call-back
• Next thing we are getting the input keywords in locationInput constant
• Then with the help of geocoder we are manipulating our provided key word to form let long and
• Next we initializing autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input);
• At the end we are getting the provide address in our place variable
• There is an another method setLocationCoordinates() i used this method to set let long so that I can store the co-ordinates along with the address in DB

That’s it, hope this help ;

First of all we need to get a google maps API, go through this documentation to get an API of your own.
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key

Place this script in your blade file if your are using Laravel or in your HTML inside body tags.

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&callback=initMap&libraries=&v=weekly"defer></script>

Make sure to put your API key in the place of YOUR_API_KEY in provided script above

Next thing you need to do after initializing the map is to create a method in jQuery for the call-back method initMap , it should match the the same callback in the script

After this first thing we need to do is to get our current location (let, long)

<button class="btn btn-success" onClick="getAddress()">Get Location</button>

What we have done in above js code

• getAddress method will get the current let long using geolocation that is provided by HTML;
• in the second function we are setting the value of two hidden input fields with the current let long;
• The initMap method will be called by our script that we initialized earlier
• The initMap method will call geocodeLatLng method to get the current let long from those hidden input
• Next thing we’re doing is splitting and formatting the let long value to provide it to geocoder
• you will get your current city name in this address variable
• Console Log the result variable and you’ll find more properties provide by geocode like long name, short name, postal code, area building number etc etc

That’s it hope this help

<button class="ratenow btn btn-success btn-sm border">Rate Now</button>

#2 This is my bootstrap model

#3 jQuery to get the review and rating from bootstrap model and send it to database using ajax

#4 That’s it if you want to rate a particular user take the user id along with the order id like i did with the order_id and you’ll be good to go
