Laravel Page isn't working after fresh install

I am a front end developer so don't hang me up please. Managed till now to install a new copy of Laravel on AWS EC2 server without issues several times for different projects.

Now I already tried installing this 3 times and tried to fallow up on every solution I could find to solve the error below, but still getting:

[Tue Jan 24 10:19:49.885900 2017] [:error] [pid 14096] [client 92.27.88.79:56096] PHP Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/var/www/laravel/bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /var/www/laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php on line 17

Steps taken for install:

  1. Setup a new instance of AWS EC2 -> create & generate security groups and keys -> connect using putty and the created key

  2. Install apache2 on the instance created using:
    sudo apt-get install apache2

  3. Install PHP7 & PHP mcrypt using:
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
    sudo apt-get install -y language-pack-en-base sudo LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install php7.0
    sudo apt-get install php7.0-mcrypt

  4. Install MySQL Server
    sudo apt-get install mysql-server

  5. Install Git
    sudo apt-get install git-core

  6. Install Laravel
    sudo git clone https://github.com/laravel/laravel.git

  7. Install Composer
    curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
    went to the root folder of Laravel (/var/www/nameOfProject)
    run command: php composer.phar install

  8. Change folder access
    changed to 777 to be sure folder: laravel/storage
    changed to 777 to be sure folder: laravel/bootstrap

  9. Restarted everything

I also tried again composer install and composer update and mostly anything that I could find on the internet; still didn't manage to get rid of this error.
If anything else I can provide to help figure this out, please do let me know.

Greatly appreciated any guidance or references to solutions that could solve this error.

Thanks in advance.

I checked it all this time. I was not checking above the final composer confirmation for any errors; basically after I installed the php7 there were still some extensions missing I guess. So i just installed the fallowing: sudo apt-get install php7.1-mbstring, sudo apt-get install php7.1-dom, sudo apt-get install php7.1-zip. Also at the end I run again composer update and restarted the server. This fixed my problem. Thank you for your time!
