Deployment in a subfolder with Laravel and Filament PHP on shared hosting
I have build a simple property management application using Laravel 11 and Filament v3.
I deployed the application in two places. Both on shared hosting. The only difference is one is deployed under a subdomain under public_html.
So both applications are working one on is accessible on for example https://exampledomain.com and the other on https://testdomain.com/subfolder
I can load the login page on both but the second on https://testdomain.com/subfolder only works if I delete the routes cache. If the route is cached and I load https://testdomain.com/subfolder, I get an error stating
Method Not Allowed
Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Exception\MethodNotAllowedHttpException
The GET method is not supported for route /. Supported methods: HEAD.
When I delete the route cache the login page loads.
The main issue is when I put in my login details on the second domain with the route cached deleted I get an error saying
Method Not Allowed
Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Exception\MethodNotAllowedHttpException
The POST method is not supported for route user/login. Supported methods: GET, HEAD.
I have edit the .htaccess file
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /subfolder/
I have the below routes in my web.php file
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Artisan;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
Route::get('/', function () {
return redirect('/user/login');
})->name('home');
Route::get('/clear-cache', function() {
Artisan::call('config:clear');
Artisan::call('route:clear');
Artisan::call('cache:clear');
Artisan::call('view:clear');
return 'Done';
})->name('clear-cache');
Route::get('/cache', function() {
Artisan::call('filament:optimize');
Artisan::call('optimize');
return 'Done cache';
})->name('cache');
I have cleared routes, cache and views with no luck. Exact same project works perfectly on https://exampledomain.com without the subfolder
Any suggestions?

I have also set the APP_URL in the .env to match the https://testdomain.com/subfolder and ran php artisan config clear.
This is more likely due to wrong webserver setup. How does your nginx conf or whatever webserver you use look like?
Better use a subdomain so, subfolder.testdomain.con
Shared Hosting is always a struggle with Laravel.
Can you set the
DocumentRoot with the shared hosting? Otherwise it's not secure.
