problem with symlink in Hostinger with laravel-CodePudding

i am in Hostinger shared host, and in subdomain..so my Laravel project inside (osamaStartup) folder:

username/ domains/ osamamy.com/ public_html/ osamaStartup

I really tried everything, like using a PHP file to make a symlink, but it give me an error message that the symlink function is not defined...

also, I have tried to make a link using the command (ln -s) but it doesn't work:

ln -s ../storage/app/public/ storage/

.... hope anyone here can solve this problem.... thanks in advance

To make these files accessible from the web, you should create a symbolic link from public/storage to storage/app/public.

To create the symbolic link, you may use the storage:link Artisan command:

php artisan storage:link

PHP artisan storage:link
