I hope you are doing well I am trying to change the public folder to the public_html folder on Cpanel, and it was working fine in local mode on my computer.

I tried these steps.

1. ./app/AppServiceProvider.php add this code

   public function register(){ $this->app->bind('path.public', function() {
   return base_path().'/public_html'; });}
   

2. ./config/filesystems.php change public to public_html

    'public' => ['driver' => 'local','root' =>
     storage_path('app/public'),'url' =>
     env('APP_URL').'/storage','visibility' => 'public',],
   

3. ./webpack.mix.js change public to public_html

    mix.config.publicPath='public_html';
    mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public_html/js')
          .sass('resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public_html/css');
   

4. index.php add this code

   $app->bind('path.public', function() { return __DIR__; });
   

But, I get this error on the site

Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

rename your public to public_html

then go to your public_html/index.php and add, just after the line where $app is created:

 $app->bind('path.public', function() { return __DIR__; });

then go to /bootstrap/app.php

$app->bind('path.public', function() { return base_path().'/public_html'; });

now you are good to go

I noticed that after running this command

npm run dev // Compile scripts.

It automatically creates a public folder and creates public_html folders and a mix-manifest.json files in it.

If anyone knows, please kindly help. Thankful
