I’m building a Laravel 9 app using Docker.
I’m just starting, so I merely updated the APP_URL variable in the .env (from "http://localhost" to "http://mydomain.local").
After this, I ran the following commands:
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan config:clear
php artisan route:clear
composer dump-autoload
and I restarted the Docker container of the app.
Yet, when I access http://mydomain.local in my browser, the app doesn’t load. It still loads properly when I user http://localhost as originally configured.
What am I missing?
>Solution :
This is because you probably didnt edit the vhost..
Just changing the APP_URL in the .env file doesnt change how the browser resolves a domain name.
See this thread to learn how to edit a vhost file: WAMP Server virtual hosts configuration
