What i learn from this project:

  • Enable php for apache2 When i run my ubuntu machine, the browser can't render file that contain phpinfo() So, i install the package that enable php for apache2: sudo apt install libapache2-mod-php

  • Enabling web server to override the configuration by using .htaccess file

    1. Edit the apache2 conf sudo nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf Replace the AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All
    <Directory /var/www/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
</Directory>
    1. Enable rewrite modul sudo a2enmod rewrite
    2. Restart the apache sudo service apache2 restart

  • Enabling cors for all origin by adding this script to .htaccess file

    Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Methods: "GET,POST,OPTIONS,DELETE,PUT"

  • Enabling cors in ubuntu machine

        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
        Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
</Directory>
    1. Enable headers module sudo a2enmod headers

    <Files .env>
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
