How to create symlink and link your Storage/app/public folder to your public_html/Storage folder.

  1. Modify your filesyste.php file and check it in the repository. This file is located in your config folder of your project.

  2. If you can't run the artisan commands then you can create a rout as follows and run in your browser it will run the command to create link.
    Route::get("/storage-link", function () { $targetFolder = storage_path("app/public"); $linkFolder = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/storage';

    if (!is_link($linkFolder)) { symlink($targetFolder, $linkFolder); return 'Storage linked successfully'; } else { return 'Storage link already exists'; } });

  3. Now go to your browser and after the domain name write storage-link and hit enter
    https://example.com/storage-link

  4. Now your Storage/app/public will be linked to your public_html/Storage folder and if your images or Storage directory is giving the persmission error then you must check your permission where for the Storage the permission should be 0777 , for the sub folder 0755 and for the images and files 0644 should be the correct permissions to access.
