Remove Laravel Lumen Public path Ubuntu Cloud Server

Question

I'm trying to remove public path on lumen 5.2 on a ubuntu server 14.04 LTS

Here is my .htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On 
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

I already allow mod_rewrite on my apache

also added this to my apache2.conf to allow Overrides

<Directory /var/www/html/lumen>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride all
    Require all granted
</Directory>

I'm getting the error

Sorry, the page you are looking for could not be found.

But if I added the public path to url it works. Any one having this trouble?

I'm trying to make the url from http://www.example.com/public to http://www.example.com/

Change

<Directory /var/www/html/lumen>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride all
    Require all granted
</Directory>

To

<Directory /var/www/html/lumen/public>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride all
    Require all granted
</Directory>

Because your document root is public directory. And remove that public/ from .htaccess

Still having the same problem and also when I remove `public/` for my .htaccess its showing my directory list and not to my public folder – user2875453 Apr 08 '16 at 10:53
Do You restored default `.htaccess` https://github.com/laravel/lumen/blob/master/public/.htaccess ? – Giedrius Kiršys Apr 08 '16 at 10:57
I didn't edit the .htaccess from `public` folder instead I make a new one on my root directory – user2875453 Apr 08 '16 at 11:00
Try to remove that new `.htaccess`. Also make sure your `DocumentRoot` pointing to `public` directory. – Giedrius Kiršys Apr 08 '16 at 11:03
I already did but same thing happens just like my first comment – user2875453 Apr 08 '16 at 11:16
Strange, can You attach all virtual host configuration file? – Giedrius Kiršys Apr 08 '16 at 11:18

To fix this:

Restore your original .htaccess and never edit it.

Edit your Apache config file, you should have something like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName myapp.localhost.com
  DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/lumen/public"
  <Directory "/var/www/html/lumen/public">
    AllowOverride all
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Restart Apache.
