Laravel htaccess issue

I'm trying to set a site live. The site works perfectly fine on a live dev server which we've been using to show the site to the client. Here is the htaccess from the live dev (works fine):

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine On

    #RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
    #RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\..+$ [NC]
    #RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    # Rewrite to 'public' folder
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^livedev.domain.com$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !public/
    RewriteRule (.*) public/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "dev16"
AuthUserFile "/home/site/.htpasswds/public_html/passwd"
require valid-user

And here's the .htaccess from the live site:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine On

    #RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
    #RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\..+$ [NC]
    #RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    # Rewrite to 'public' folder
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^livesite.co.uk$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !public/
    RewriteRule (.*) public/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

The 2 are identical except for the HTTP_HOST and the removal of the authentication.

It gives me a generic "Internal Server Error".

I have tried deleting the contents of .htaccess which just gives me page not found so the issue definitely lies in .htaccess.

A total .htaccess virgin, what steps can I take to find the cause of the issue?

Thanks

(It's Laravel 3.2.13)

I had exactly same setup as RamiroRS answer, but still got Internal Server Error. My problem was in file permissions. Folders should be 0755 and files 0644.

Use at same level of /public

This way first redirect to public

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !public/
RewriteRule (.*) /public/$1 [L]

And inside /public

then, you handle index.php

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    RewriteEngine On
</IfModule>


<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
