Laravel proper permissions

Question

I just tried to change my Laravel project to run on Nginx instead of Apache and can't get the right permissions. Don't really know what to try next. Currently here they are:

I even gave the 777 permission to the storage folder, but nothing works. I have an admin panel on a blog which always keeps throwing

ErrorException in File.php line 190: chmod(): Operation not permitted

Would really appreciate any help.

I am using Nginx, PHP 7.0, MySQL. The website is written using the Laravel framework.

Sorry I didn't have time to review your answers I will do so today in evening :) — jsonDoge

Unfortunately none of the answers helped, I still get "chmod(): Operation not permitted" if I try to access the admin panel. It maybe connected to the fact that I use Auth there. — jsonDoge

Permissions in sub-folders are same as their parent folders. — jsonDoge

This will work, as777 is a security risk

 sudo chmod -R o+w storage/ sudo chmod -R 775 storage/

First, check the user assigned in Nginx www conf file /etc/php/7.0/php-fpm.d/www.conf
User may be www-data or _www or any other.

Then change the ownership of the project folder as

sudo chown $USER:www-data -R ~/Laravel/PBlog/

Then Change the file permissions as

sudo chmod u=+srwX,g=+srX,o=rX -R ~/Laravel/PBlog/

s flag means, any file/folder added/created inside the folder will take same permission.

I am having user = nobody group = nobody what should be chown command for me?
you can add user and group. nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#user

The shortest way I found to fix it:

sudo chown -R $USER:www-data storage bootstrap/cache

Depending on how you bootstrapped your project, there is already a 775 flag on the storage folder usually, another easy fix, is to add your web server user to your group using usermod with the -aG options : usermod -aG $USER www-data
