CORS Configuration for Vite
February 1, 2025 · AI Conversations
### Solution:
You need to configure Vite to properly handle CORS within your DDEV setup.
#### 1️⃣ **Update `vite.config.js`**
Modify your Vite config file (`vite.config.js`) to allow requests from your main DDEV domain:
export default defineConfig({
server: {
host: '0.0.0.0',
port: 5175,
strictPort: true,
cors: {
origin: 'https://openeratech.ddev.site',
credentials: true,
},
hmr: {
protocol: 'wss',
host: 'openeratech.ddev.site',
},
},
});
#### 2️⃣ **Restart Vite**
After modifying the configuration, restart your Vite server:
yarn dev
#### 3️⃣ **Update `config/cors.php` in Laravel**
Ensure your Laravel CORS settings allow the Vite dev server (`5175`):
return [
'paths' => ['api/*', 'sanctum/csrf-cookie', 'resources/js/*'],
'allowed_methods' => ['*'],
'allowed_origins' => ['https://openeratech.ddev.site'],
'allowed_origins_patterns' => [],
'allowed_headers' => ['*'],
'exposed_headers' => [],
'max_age' => 0,
'supports_credentials' => true,
];
Then, clear the Laravel cache:
php artisan config:clear
After making these changes, refresh your browser and test again. Let me know if the issue persists! 🚀
### ✅ **Solution 1: Use Laravel’s `config` to Expose the DDEV Hostname**
1. **Set the host manually in `.env`**
Open your `.env` file and add:
DDEV_HOSTNAME=openeratech.ddev.site
2. **Expose it in Laravel’s `config/app.php`**
Open `config/app.php` and add:
'ddev_hostname' => env('DDEV_HOSTNAME', 'localhost'),
3. **Clear config cache (if needed)**
Run:
php artisan config:clear
php artisan config:cache
—
### ✅ **Solution 2: Use Vite’s `defineConfig` in `vite.config.js`**
If you're using Vite with Laravel, you need to expose the variable to your frontend.
1. **Modify `vite.config.js`**
Open `vite.config.js` and add:
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
laravel({
input: ['resources/js/app.js'],
refresh: true,
}),
],
server: {
host: '0.0.0.0',
port: 5175,
strictPort: true,
},
define: {
'process.env.DDEV_HOSTNAME': JSON.stringify(process.env.DDEV_HOSTNAME || 'openeratech.ddev.site'),
},
});
2. **Restart Vite**
Run:
yarn dev
—
### ✅ **Solution 3: Debug the Environment Variables**
Check if `DDEV_HOSTNAME` is being set correctly inside the container.
Run:
ddev ssh
echo $DDEV_HOSTNAME
If it's empty, check your DDEV `.ddev/config.yaml` and ensure it has:
web_environment:
- DDEV_HOSTNAME=openeratech.ddev.site
Then restart DDEV:
ddev restart
—
### 🚀 **Final Check**
After making these changes, try:
php artisan tinker
>>> env('DDEV_HOSTNAME');
If it returns `null`, check your `.env` file again.
Let me know if you're still facing issues! 🚀
### **Linux/macOS**
mv /source-folder/.* /destination-folder/
mv /source-folder/* /destination-folder/
OR (recommended single command)
mv /source-folder/{.,}* /destination-folder/
### **Explanation:**
– `.*` moves hidden files (`.env`, `.gitignore`, etc.).
– `*` moves all regular files and directories.
– `{.,}*` is a safe way to move both hidden and non-hidden files in one command.
### **Windows (Git Bash, WSL, or PowerShell)**
#### **Git Bash / WSL**
mv /source-folder/{.,}* /destination-folder/
#### **PowerShell**
Move-Item -Path C:source-folder* -Destination C:destination-folder -Force
Get-ChildItem -Path C:source-folder -Force | Move-Item -Destination C:destination-folder -Force
The `-Force` flag ensures hidden files are moved.
Let me know if you need further clarification! 🚀
### **Linux/macOS:**
mv {.,}* /destination-folder/
### **Windows (Git Bash/WSL):**
mv {.,}* /destination-folder/
### **Windows (PowerShell):**
Get-ChildItem -Path . -Force | Move-Item -Destination C:destination-folder -Force
### **Explanation:**
– `{.,}*` ensures both normal files (`*`) and hidden files (`.*`) are moved.
– `/destination-folder/` is where you want to move the files.
– If the destination folder is inside the current directory, use `../destination-folder/`.
#### **Example:**
If you are in `/var/www/html/myfolder/` and want to move everything to `/var/www/html/newfolder/`, run:
mv {.,}* ../newfolder/
⚠ **Important Note:**
Ensure the destination is correct; otherwise, moving hidden files incorrectly can mess up your system. 🚀

## ✅ **Steps to Set Up Bedrock WordPress in Your Existing DDEV Laravel Project**
### 1️⃣ **Navigate to Your Laravel Project**
cd /your-ddev-laravel-project
—
### 2️⃣ **Install Bedrock in a Separate Directory**
Run the following command inside your Laravel project directory to create a `bedrock` folder:
composer create-project roots/bedrock bedrock
This will install Bedrock into `/your-ddev-laravel-project/bedrock`.
—
### 3️⃣ **Modify Your DDEV Configuration**
Edit `.ddev/config.yaml` to handle both Laravel and Bedrock.
name: my-ddev-project
type: php
docroot: "public"
php_version: "8.3"
webserver_type: apache-fpm
router_http_port: 80
router_https_port: 443
additional_hostnames:
- laravel.local
- wordpress.local
additional_fqdns:
- laravel.ddev.site
- wordpress.ddev.site
web_environment:
- DDEV_PHP_VERSION=8.3
# Custom Nginx/Apache routing
vhost_extra_config: |
# Laravel
<Location /laravel>
ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:8000/
ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:8000/
</Location>
# WordPress Bedrock
<Location /wordpress>
ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:8080/
ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:8080/
</Location>
—
### 4️⃣ **Set Up Laravel to Run on a Subpath**
Ensure Laravel uses `/laravel` by changing `APP_URL` in `.env`:
APP_URL=http://laravel.ddev.site/laravel
—
### 5️⃣ **Set Up Bedrock Environment**
Edit `bedrock/.env`:
DB_NAME='wordpress'
DB_USER='db'
DB_PASSWORD='db'
DB_HOST='db'
WP_ENV=development
WP_HOME='http://wordpress.ddev.site/wordpress'
WP_SITEURL='${WP_HOME}/wp'
—
### 6️⃣ **Update Database Settings**
Since Laravel and Bedrock both need databases, update `config/database.php` in Laravel:
'mysql' => [
'driver' => 'mysql',
'host' => env('DB_HOST', 'db'),
'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'laravel'),
'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'db'),
'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'db'),
],
Ensure both Laravel and WordPress have separate databases in `ddev`:
ddev mysql
CREATE DATABASE laravel;
CREATE DATABASE wordpress;
EXIT;
—
### 7️⃣ **Run DDEV and Migrate Databases**
ddev restart
ddev exec php artisan migrate
ddev exec wp core install --url="http://wordpress.ddev.site/wordpress" --title="My Bedrock WP" --admin_user="admin" --admin_password="password" --admin_email="admin@example.com"
—
## 🎯 **Final Result**
– Laravel: `http://laravel.ddev.site/laravel`
– WordPress (Bedrock): `http://wordpress.ddev.site/wordpress`
Let me know if you need further refinements! 🚀
/bedrock
—
## ✅ **1. Install Bedrock in the Laravel Project**
If you haven't already, navigate to your Laravel project's root folder and install Bedrock inside a `/bedrock` subdirectory.
cd /your-ddev-laravel-project
composer create-project roots/bedrock bedrock
—
## ✅ **2. Configure DDEV to Serve Laravel as Main and Bedrock under `/bedrock`**
Edit `.ddev/config.yaml`:
name: my-ddev-project
type: php
docroot: "public"
php_version: "8.3"
webserver_type: apache-fpm
router_http_port: 80
router_https_port: 443
web_environment:
- DDEV_PHP_VERSION=8.3
vhost_extra_config: |
# WordPress Bedrock under /bedrock
Alias /bedrock /var/www/html/bedrock/web
<Directory /var/www/html/bedrock/web>
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
—
## ✅ **3. Configure Laravel's `.env`**
Ensure `APP_URL` in your Laravel `.env` file is:
APP_URL=https://openeratech.ddev.site
—
## ✅ **4. Configure Bedrock’s `.env`**
Edit `bedrock/.env` to reflect the correct URLs:
DB_NAME='wordpress'
DB_USER='db'
DB_PASSWORD='db'
DB_HOST='db'
WP_ENV=development
WP_HOME='https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock'
WP_SITEURL='${WP_HOME}/wp'
—
## ✅ **5. Configure Bedrock’s `config/application.php`**
Modify the site URL in `bedrock/config/application.php`:
'WP_HOME' => env('WP_HOME', 'https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock'),
'WP_SITEURL' => env('WP_SITEURL', 'https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock/wp'),
—
## ✅ **6. Restart DDEV and Set Up WordPress**
ddev restart
ddev exec php artisan migrate
ddev exec wp core install --url="https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock" --title="My Bedrock WP" --admin_user="admin" --admin_password="password" --admin_email="admin@example.com"
—
## ✅ **Final Result**
– **Laravel Main Site:** `https://openeratech.ddev.site`
– **Bedrock WordPress:** `https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock`
This setup allows Laravel to function as the primary site while keeping Bedrock available under `/bedrock`.
Let me know if you need adjustments! 🚀
—
## **🔍 1. Ensure Bedrock Exists in the Correct Directory**
Make sure the **Bedrock WordPress installation** exists inside your **Laravel project** at:
/your-ddev-laravel-project/bedrock/
The structure should look like this:
/your-ddev-laravel-project/
│── app/
│── bootstrap/
│── public/
│── bedrock/ <--- Bedrock WP
│ ├── web/
│ ├── config/
│ ├── vendor/
│ ├── .env
│── .ddev/
│── .env
│── config.yaml
—
## **🔧 2. Update `.ddev/config.yaml`**
Modify `.ddev/config.yaml` to **serve Bedrock under `/bedrock`**:
name: my-ddev-project
type: php
docroot: "public"
php_version: "8.3"
webserver_type: apache-fpm
router_http_port: 80
router_https_port: 443
vhost_extra_config: |
# Serve Bedrock under /bedrock
Alias /bedrock /var/www/html/bedrock/web
<Directory /var/www/html/bedrock/web>
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
—
## **📝 3. Update Laravel’s `.env`**
Ensure Laravel uses the correct URL:
APP_URL=https://openeratech.ddev.site
—
## **📝 4. Update Bedrock’s `.env`**
Make sure `bedrock/.env` reflects the correct WordPress paths:
DB_NAME='wordpress'
DB_USER='db'
DB_PASSWORD='db'
DB_HOST='db'
WP_ENV=development
WP_HOME='https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock'
WP_SITEURL='${WP_HOME}/wp'
—
## **🚀 5. Restart DDEV and Verify**
Run the following to restart DDEV:
ddev restart
ddev exec php artisan migrate
ddev exec wp core install --url="https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock" --title="My Bedrock WP" --admin_user="admin" --admin_password="password" --admin_email="admin@example.com"
—
## **✅ Final Check**
Now, open:
– **Laravel:** `https://openeratech.ddev.site`
– **Bedrock:** `https://openeratech.ddev.site/bedrock`
If you still get **404 on `/bedrock`**, check logs with:
ddev logs -s web

# Please take care with this because it can cause great confusion.
# upload_dirs: "custom/upload/dir"
#
# upload_dirs:
# – custom/upload/dir

# omit_containers: [db, ddev-ssh-agent]
# Currently only these containers are supported. Some containers can also be
# omitted globally in the ~/.ddev/global_config.yaml. Note that if you omit
# the "db" container, several standard features of DDEV that access the

# performance_mode: "global"
# DDEV offers performance optimization strategies to improve the filesystem

# will be available on the local network if the host firewall
# allows it.
# default_container_timeout: 120
# The default time that DDEV waits for all containers to become ready can be increased from

#web_extra_exposed_ports:
#- name: nodejs
# container_port: 3000
# http_port: 2999
# https_port: 3000
#- name: something

# https_port: 4000
# http_port: 3999
# Allows a set of extra ports to be exposed via ddev-router
# Fill in all three fields even if you don’t intend to use the https_port!
# If you don’t add https_port, then it defaults to 0 and ddev-router will fail to start.
#
# The port behavior on the ddev-webserver must be arranged separately, for example
# using web_extra_daemons.
# For example, with a web app on port 3000 inside the container, this config would
# expose that web app on https://.ddev.site:9999 and http://.ddev.site:9998
# web_extra_exposed_ports:
# – name: myapp
# container_port: 3000

# command: "/var/www/html/node_modules/.bin/http-server /var/www/html/sub -p 3000"
# directory: /var/www/html
# override_config: false
# By default, config.*.yaml files are *merged* into the configuration
# But this means that some things can't be overridden
# For example, if you have 'use_dns_when_possible: true'' you can't override it with a merge
# and you can't erase existing hooks or all environment variables.
# However, with "override_config: true" in a particular config.*.yaml file,
# 'use_dns_when_possible: false' can override the existing values, and
# hooks:
# post-start: []
# or
# web_environment: []
# or
# additional_hostnames: []
# can have their intended affect. 'override_config' affects only behavior of the
# config.*.yaml file it exists in.
# Many DDEV commands can be extended to run tasks before or after the
# DDEV command is executed, for example "post-start", "post-import-db",
# "pre-composer", "post-composer"
# See https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/extend/custom-commands/ for more
# information on the commands that can be extended and the tasks you can define
# for them. Example:
#hooks:
### 1. **Verify the Directory Structure**
Since you're trying to alias `/wpblog` to `bedrock/web`, ensure that your **Bedrock files exist inside `/var/www/html/bedrock`** in your DDEV container.
Run:
ddev ssh
ls -l /var/www/html/bedrock
If the `bedrock` directory does not exist, you may need to move it to the correct location.
### 2. **Check Your Alias Configuration**
Your `vhost_extra_config` has:
Alias /wpblog /var/www/html/bedrock/web
<Directory /var/www/html/bedrock/web>
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
Try replacing `/wpblog` with `/bedrock` if you intend to access `/bedrock` instead.
### 3. **Check Bedrock `.env` Configuration**
Ensure that your `.env` file inside `bedrock/` has the correct settings:
WP_HOME=http://openeratech.ddev.site/wpblog
WP_SITEURL=http://openeratech.ddev.site/wpblog/wp
### 4. **Flush and Restart DDEV**
After making changes, run:
ddev restart
ddev exec rm -rf web/wp web/wp-content/cache
ddev exec wp cache flush
Then check if `/bedrock` loads properly.

What are you trying to do with this setup? Are you troubleshooting something or setting up a new feature?
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /path/to/your/project
Replace `/path/to/your/project` with the actual path to your project directory. The `-R` option applies the change recursively to all files and subdirectories within the specified directory.
After running this command, your project files will be owned by the `www-data` user and group, which is often necessary for web server access. If you're using Docker or another environment, you might need to adjust the command accordingly.
1. **Check Permalinks Settings**:
– Go to the WordPress admin dashboard.
– Navigate to **Settings > Permalinks**.
– Without making any changes, click **Save Changes**. This can refresh your permalink settings and resolve 404 errors.
2. **Ensure the Directory Exists**:
– Verify that the `/wpblog` directory exists in your web server's root directory and that it contains the necessary WordPress files (like `index.php`, `wp-config.php`, etc.).
3. **Apache/Nginx Configuration**:
– If you're using Apache, ensure that the `.htaccess` file is present and configured correctly. A typical `.htaccess` for WordPress looks like this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
– If you're using Nginx, ensure that your server block is set up to handle pretty permalinks:
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
4. **File Permissions**:
– Ensure that the file permissions are set correctly. For directories, use `755`, and for files, use `644`. You can run the following commands:
find /path/to/your/wpblog -type d -exec chmod 755 {} ;
find /path/to/your/wpblog -type f -exec chmod 644 {} ;
5. **Clear Cache**:
– If you're using caching plugins or a caching mechanism, clear the cache to ensure that you're seeing the latest version of your site.
6. **Check for Plugins/Themes Conflicts**:
– Temporarily deactivate all plugins and switch to a default theme (like Twenty Twenty-Three) to check if the issue is caused by a plugin or theme conflict.
7. **Error Logs**:
– Check the web server error logs for any clues about what might be causing the 404 error. The logs can often be found in `/var/log/apache2/error.log` for Apache or `/var/log/nginx/error.log` for Nginx.
By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the 404 error you're encountering when accessing `/wpblog`. If you continue to have issues, please provide more details about your server setup and configuration.
