I have a Laravel project. Now it is running on Cpanel, but I want to run this project in my local environment. When I step this project into a local environment, I got the 500 internal server error. Could you please help me resolve this issue and attach my project to this? https://github.com/sachinda96/MBPos

Please check your public folder, it’s missing a lot of files. Eg. index.php.
And make sure your .env file (which is not uploaded, hence I can’t diagnose the problem) is configured to run locally.
Crosscheck with a fresh local installation of laravel. Read more on how to install here at the docs. 🙂
composer install
commandAs long as your .ENV is configured to run your project locally, you should be fine.
Try running
php artisan serve
in your console.Please read the getting started docs.
I’m late to the party, but in my case, Sail wasn’t running because I inadvertently closed Docker Desktop and Sail can’t run without it.
So if you use Sail for your local development environment, maybe the answer is as simple as starting up Docker Desktop and then running the Sail up command to get the server running again.
I’ve created a Sail alias to make it easier to run Sail commands. Look it up if you don’t know what it is. Once you have the alias created, you can start Sail with this simple CLI command…
$ sail up -d
Note: The -d flag simply tells it to start up in the background so it doesn’t take over your terminal window. I’m on a Mac with Laravel v9.
