Laravel Folder Checks

/home/labtrauk/labtrace.co.uk/storage
bootstrap/cache
Not Found Not Writable / Unknown
/home/labtrauk/labtrace.co.uk/bootstrap/cache

These checks become meaningful once the script is placed inside your Laravel project root.

Composer Check

Detected

Composer version 2.9.1 2025-11-13 16:10:38 PHP version 8.4.21 (/opt/alt/php84/usr/bin/php) Run the "diagnose" command to get more detailed diagnostics output.

Some hosts block command execution from PHP even if Composer is available through SSH.

Manual Checks

  • SSH / terminal access should be confirmed in your hosting panel.
  • Cron jobs should be available so Laravel scheduler can run every minute.
  • Your domain or subdomain should point to the Laravel public folder.
  • SSL/HTTPS should be enabled.
  • If you want background jobs later, confirm support for long-running queue workers.
