How to setup Storage directory permission for Laravel 4. Im having this error:

`Error in exception handler: The stream or file "/var/www/mysite/app/storage/logs/laravel.log" could not be opened: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/mysite/vendor/monolog/monolog/src/Monolog/Handler/StreamHandler.php:84`

I already chmod -R the storage directory to 777. The problem still persist. Any ideas?

  • Did you recursively `chmod`? `sudo chmod 777 -R storage` – James Mar 06 '16 at 07:01

It has nothing to do with Laravel or Google Compute Engine. It SELinux configuration which is comes with Centos 7. Have to tweak or disable SELinux to overcome this problem.
