- The `File not found or not writable` error during your Laravel deployment strongly indicates a server permissions issue. Your web server user (e.g., `www-data` or `nginx`) needs write access to the `/var/www/html/public/` directory.
- Commonly, running `sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/public` and `sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/public` on your server will resolve this, but verify the correct user/group for your specific setup.

Answered 2 days agoAh, got it. Permissions really do sound like the culprit there. My setup's a bit different though, running on a specific managed VPS where the web user isn't standard `www-data` and it's kinda locked down for direct `chown` access...
