Php – Laravel 5 not find http://localhost:8000/css/app.css

bladelaravellaravel-5PHP

I am using Laravel 5 and got "Failed to load resource, the server responded with a status of 404(Not Found) http://localhost:8000/css/app.css"

If my layout.blade.php were

   <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/css/bootstrap.min.css">

It works fine.

But If I changed it to

 <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ URL::asset('css/app.css') }}">

I got

http://localhost:8000/css/app.css Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

I have public/css/app.css
which I got from gulp and it clearly exists these.

If I entered http://localhost:8000/css/app.css from browser URL, I got an error NotFoundHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 161:" because I do not write /css/app.css at routes.php.

But I do not think this is a routing issue.

I know very similiar issue in Stack Overflow but can not find specific solutions.

I found a solution. There was no problem from the beginning.

The initial setting was correct.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ URL::asset('css/app.css') }}">

The problem seems to be caused by Netbeans 8.1 embedded web server.

I was trying to test Windows 7 + Netbeans 8.1 embedded web server and always testing my program with http://xxx:8000/.

The problem seems to be caused by Netbeans 8.1 embedded web server.

Now I am using Xampp embedded Apache and works perfect.

Php – Why css and bootstrap is not loading in Laravel 5.3

I fixed this issue by simply putting '/' in front of the link

link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/bootstrap.min.css"
link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/app.css"

Php – Assets not referencing to public folder (Laravel)

I was having same problem. This is due to moving of .htaccess file from public to root of the project in order to serve localhost/project rather than localhost/project/laravel. And needed to use public as well in the asset:

<link href="{{ asset('public/css/app.css') }}" rel="stylesheet">

Or, modify the asset function from /Illuminate/Foundation/helpers.php

if (! function_exists('asset')) {
    /**
     * Generate an asset path for the application.
     *
     * @param  string  $path
     * @param  bool    $secure
     * @return string
     */
    function asset($path, $secure = null)
    {
        return app('url')->asset("public/".$path, $secure);
    }
}

The preceding method is not good way. Anyway this would have been easier if there was config for setting asset path.
