Basic Server Setup

🕒 Estimated Reading Time: 1 minutes

These steps help you deploy your Laravel application to a web server so it can be accessed online using a browser.

Step by Step Guide

Step 1: Upload the Project File to the Server

• First, download the project zip file from your CodeCanyon account.
• From the extracted folder, go to:
  streamit_app_source_code → admin-panel
• Upload this zip file to your server’s CPanel, inside the public_html directory using File Manager.

Step 2: Extract the Zip File

• Once the file is uploaded, right-click on it and select Extract.
• This will unpack the project files into your public_html folder.

Step 3: Create a New MySQL Database

• Go to CPanel → MySQL Databases.
• Create a new database with a name of your choice.
• Keep this name safe, as it will be needed during the configuration.

Step 4: Create a Database User and Assign It

• In the same MySQL Databases section, create a new user by setting a username and password.
• Then assign this user to the database you just created.
• Be sure to grant All Privileges to the user.

✅ Deployment Successful!

After completing all the above steps, simply open your domain URL in a browser — your Laravel application should now be live and accessible online.

💡 Tips & Notes

• If you’re using a custom folder instead of public_html , upload and extract the zip file inside that folder instead.
• Don’t forget to update your .env file with the correct database name, username, and password.
• If you see any error, check your CPanel > Error Logs for details.
