    the problem is that the user under which the apache runs doesn't have access to the folder. in xampp on ubuntu, the user of main apache process is root. but apache workers run under daemon user. the solution is to grant daemon access to the /storage dir. (if you'll only grant to /storage/logs than you'll fix this error, but the same error will occur with sibling dirs. thus the storage itself folder:

    sudo chown -R daemon /path-to-your-project/storage

    now the daemon user has access to this folder (and you don't but do you need it? if you have better solutions, please feel free to share them here!
