Those are the steps used on a Debian 10

1. Install apache, php and mysql

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install apache2 php7.3 mariadb-server-10.3 libapache2-mod-php7.3 php7.3-mysql

If you need to setup your DB for the first time, use

   sudo mysql_secure_installation

2. Configure the database to have a db for the tool and a user pass to access it

    sudo mysql
    CREATE DATABASE <db_name>;

3. Install Git

    sudo apt-get install git

4. Install the application (go in the appropriate directory first, eg: /var/www/html)

    sudo git clone https://github.com/starcraft04/people/ .

5. Install composer (attention, go to the composer website and install from there don't use apt as it doesn't install latest version)

    https://getcomposer.org/download/
    make sure it is installed like this to have it available globally: sudo php composer-setup.php --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer
    When you have composer.phar, rename to composer and move to /usr/bin/composer

6. Changed owner and group of www with

    sudo chown -R <user> /var/www/html/

And for Laravel to be able to write temp files:

    sudo chmod a+w -R /var/www/html/bootstrap/cache/
    sudo chmod a+w -R /var/www/html/storage/

7. Execute composer to install necessary applications for Laravel 5

    composer install

And also install the following php packages:

    sudo apt-get install php7.3-xml php7.3-gd php7.3-zip php7.3-mbstring

    mv .env.example .env

9. Create an application key

    php artisan key:generate

10. Edit .env

    Enter information about MySQL database credentials Enter location of mysqldump executable (usually in /usr/bin/)

11. Restart apache

    sudo service apache2 restart

            AllowOverride None
            Require all granted
    </Directory>

            AllowOverride All
            Allow from all

    </Directory>
    

    Then run

    a2enmod rewrite
    

    then restart apache by:

    sudo service apache2 restart
    

13. Upgrade DB and use the seeds to create a user admin with the basic rights (admin@orange.com // Welcome1)

    php artisan migrate

    If reset is not working, do

    php composer dump-autoload
