I'm not familiar with Laravel (yet), but is port 8000 open on your server. Try going to http://127.0.0.1:80 or http://localhost:80. If you did open port 8000 (again, haven't watched tutorial, so I'm not sure of the process) make sure everything has been restarted (server and host, if necessary).

Hope that helps.

Please make sure you are editing the right Homestead.yaml file. At first I was looking at ~/Homestead/src/stubs/Homestead.yaml, but as the Laravel docs say:

The Homestead.yaml file will be placed in the ~/.homestead hidden directory

It appears that in the current version of Laravel (5.2), you should look for the .yaml file in this - hidden - folder. That made it work for me.

Don't forget to run vagrant reload --provision from your Homestead folder, after updating the .yaml file.

did you add the ip to your host file?

in windows its in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc on mac and linux its in /etc/hosts

so in homestead.yaml you will have something like this:

ip: "192.168.10.10"

sites:
    - map: mywebsite.app
    to: /home/vagrant/Code/my_app/public

and in your hosts file you will add this line (make sure you dont comment it out by putting a # in front)

192.168.10.10  mywebsite.app

then you will be able to access your app by typing mywebsite.app in your browser

documentation is very descriptive, take a look if you still cant make it work

I had the same problem and I tried the following and it worked.

vi ~/Homestead/Vagrantfile

# Add this line to your Vagrantfile
config.ssh.insert_key = false

vagrant reload

This might remove your larvel-basics folder from Sites/, if it does, re-install larvel again into Sites/larvel-basics/

Now if you go to larvel.dev:8000 or 127.0.0.1:8000 ```, you should see Larvel 5 or Welcome to Larvel depending on the version you are trying to install

Hope this helps
