Laravel 5 - ErrorException failed to open stream: Permission denied


I've just git clone a repository of mine containing a Laravel 5.1 project. I've gone through the normal steps to get it up and running (setup the webserver, db, etc). I've now gone to the web address I configured and i'm getting the following error message:

ErrorException in compiled.php line 6648:
file_put_contents(/3c7922efc24ab13620cd0f35b1fdaa61): failed to open stream: Permission denied

Any idea's what folder it's trying to access?


Solution

  • To solve this problem I needed to create a few folder's that were missing from my install. You require the following folders to be readable and writable by your www user:

    /storage
    /storage/cache
    /storage/framework
    /storage/framework/sessions
    /storage/framework/views
    /storage/framework/cache
    /storage/logs
    

    Also, set the folder permissions to 775. From the root directory run the command: sudo chmod -R 755 storage
