If you renamed the folder containing your Homestead project  you ll get this error  Visit your Homestead yaml file and update any references to point to the renamed folder  then do vagrant up  etc   again

I have had similar issues with Homestead and just provisioning the box worked for me  So you should try this   vagrant provision

Same issue for me   Neither vagrant provision or homestead up --provision worked for me  but the below did - probably as homestead was already running when I modified the yml file  vagrant reload --provision

This is easy to fix  because you have changed the folder name to  exampleproject  So SSH to your vagrant   ssh vagrant 127 0 0 1 -p 2222   Then change your nginx config   sudo vi  etc nginx sites-enabled homestead app  Edit the correct URI to the root on line 3 to this with the new folder name   root   Users MYUSERNAME Code exampleproject public     Restart Nginx  sudo service nginx reload   Reload the web browser  it should work now

Giving my response just in case if anybody struggling with this issue    You might need to verify that the server root configuration in   etc ngnx sites-available domain  matching with your sites to config in  Homestead yaml    If its not matching then change it and restart the webserver with  sudo service nginx restart  And still things are not working then allow write permission for the  YOURSITE app storage  folder as  chmod -R 777 app storage

I edited homestead yaml and hosts according to this laracast tutorial and restarted homestead using vagrant suspend  vagrant halt  etc   vagrant up  I tried to vagrant provision as well  but no file specified only went away after I restarted my computer  I m on Windows 7 PC  after doing all of the above  It is certainly a time consuming and tricky error   This is what my working homestead yaml looks like for two laravel projects   ip   192 168 10 10  memory  2048 cpus  1 provider  virtualbox  authorize     ssh id rsa pub  keys  -    ssh id rsa  folders      - map  D  Projects       to   home vagrant Projects  sites      - map  projectone app       to   home vagrant Projects ProjectOne public     - map  projecttwo app       to   home vagrant Projects ProjectTwo public  databases      - laraveldb   and here is my hosts file       127 0 0 1       localhost 192 168 10 10   projectone app 192 168 10 10   projecttwo app   Note  there are two separate installations of laravel in D  Projects ProjectOne and D  Projects ProjectTwo  I then access the first project by typing projectone app 8000 in the browser and projecttwo app 8000 for the second project   P S  I tested this for Laravel 5 2 on Windows

Older versions of Homestead maps folders in   Code to say for example by default   Code laravel public  Notice the case capitalisations in   Code  These are case sensitive  New versions use lower case   code  Update these directories in your Homestead yaml according to your actual directories   TL DR   Update   Code to   code or vice versa depending on your actual directory names

I had the same issue while following the Laravel docs  https   laravel com docs 5 2 homestead   My problem was very simple  I missed read this part in the docs      Homestead yaml file will be placed in the    homestead hidden   directory    So I was updating the wrong Homestead yaml file  since the file was moved when I ran the bash init sh command   I only realised this after a lot of searching  so hope this will help someone

Try restarting your computer  Had a working Homestead running locally  which at some point stopped and would get the  No input file specified  error  I couldn t trace it   With a computer restart  the error disappeared

Word of caution  linux is case sensitive   That is probably why you see a  Code  and a  code  directory   What I would do is redo the vagrant setup again and if you want to keep it simple and matching what the Homestead box has as a default make your directory in your host machine  Code  with uppercase   You could also in the  folders  section just map to your  Code  folder in your machine  in case you decide to add more sites to your Homestead setup later   That way under  home vagrant Code  you will see all your site projects and you can ass more sites pointing to their  public  directories

I am using Windows 10 and has the following Homestead configuration  --- ip   192 168 10 10  memory  2048 cpus  1 provider  virtualbox  authorize     ssh id rsa pub  keys      -    ssh id rsa folders      - map    code                folder in local computer where codes are stored eg  c  xampp htdocs project1       to   home vagrant code     folder in the VM where the above code will be mapped  sites      - map  homestead local           fake name of the site  redirect this domain to the above IP ie 192 168 10 10 in hosts file ie  c  windows system32 etc hosts        to   home vagrant code public  complete path to index php file in the local computer to be utilized by homestead local  databases      - homestead   I PINGed the homestead local domain and was getting results   But when I typed http   homestead local in the browser  I got  no input file specified  error   I checked the code public folder and there was no index file  I was sure the system was looking for the default file which was somehow missing   Once I created an index file it started working fine   Update    Next time it happened after a change in the Homestead yaml file  I ran vagrant reload --provision command and it worked    It looks that running vagrant reload only will not provision the vagrant box  Read here

This happens because you need to configure your nginx server properly in order to serve you application  You can do this following this guide  starting in the topic Configure Nginx and the Web Root   After properly configuring your symbolic link between your  etc nginx sites-available and  etc nginx sites-enabled you need to make sure your root variable is set to your application s folder path  Set your nginx root from   root  usr share nginx html    to   home vagrant Projects ProjectOne public   Also  you have to place index php before your html files so php is served before html  Change this  index index html index htm    to this  index index php index html index htm    After finish your configuration restart your nginx server with   sudo service nginx restart   Your application should be served now

This is likely because the nginx web server is not pointing to the right path   There s two keys that you should look at  the map key under folders and the to key under sites  The folders key maps folders on your local machine to the vagrant VM  The sites key is used to create a virtual host on nginx with the value in to   What you want to make sure is that to under sites points to the right path to public   The problem was that I created my laravel project with composer create laravel laravel  This created a folder in my current directory named laravel  Then without changing directories I installed the homestead helper with composer require laravel homestead --dev   After running php vendor bin homestead make and vagrant up my directory structure looked something like this     cd laravel51   ls -a       vagrant laravel composer json composer lock vendor Homestead yml Vagrantfile    My Homestead yml looked like this   folders      - map    Users USER Sites sandbox php laravel51        to    home vagrant laravel51   sites      - map  laravel51       to    home vagrant laravel51 public    If you look closely  the  Users USER Sites sandbox php laravel51 path will be mounted onto the vagrant VM  This is the wrong directory because it should be pointing to the laravel project root where your app directory is  What happened here was that I was supposed to require the homestead helper while I was in the project root   So now the question is what do I do  You ve got two options  get rid of your current homestead VM and start over  but this time from the project root OR salvage what you have already   If you want to salvage what you have  you ll have to move several files and a folder to your laravel project root   These are the artifacts you ll need to move    vagrant Homestead yml Vagrantfile   The composer json won t be needed since you ll be requiring it later   Move those files to your laravel project root and change your current working directory to there  cd laravel   At that point just update the map under folders and make sure that it s pointing to the project root  Also make sure that the to key under sites is the to key under folders with  public appended to it   For example   folders      - map    Users USER Sites sandbox php laravel51 laravel        to    home vagrant laravel51   sites      - map  laravel51       to    home vagrant laravel51 public    Now run composer require laravel homestead --dev so that the homestead helper is required into your current project s composer json file and installed   Run vagrant reload --provision and you should be all set
