404 or 500 errors when attempting to access Laravel routes

I’m having some issues getting my Laravel project up and running on a shared hosting account. Of course, this works fine locally and it was working fine on the hosting account a couple days ago; I'm not sure what I could have changed to make it stop working.

Being that it’s a shared host, I don’t think I have the ability to change httpd.conf, but I can of course modify .htaccess.

I wanted a place to store multilple apps, so my plan was to create a new folder in my web root for each Laravel project. This is how I currently have it set up (not sure if this is a good way to do it or not):

Then map the public folder of each of these folders to a subdomain:

Here’s the problem: when I try to hit any route besides the root page '/', I get a 404 error. This is the generic 404 from the host, not from Laravel. When I try to access via the subdomain, I get a 500 error.

If I visit:

I’ve seen other questions that mention changing settings in httpd.conf, but I don’t believe I have access to do that. Given that this was previously working for me, I think there is a solution outside of that.

What can I do to prevent these errors?

Also, why would I get different errors when hitting the page from http://example.com/App1/public vs http://app1.example.com ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated..!

Not sure if this will help, but here’s my .htaccess code (Laravel 5.4.21 default):

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>

    RewriteEngine On

    # Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

    # Handle Front Controller...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

    # Handle Authorization Header
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
    RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>

This issue was resolved by modifying the Laravel default .htaccess file by adding the line:

RewriteBase /

This fixed both the 404 and 500 errors.

So altogether:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    # Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

    # Handle Front Controller...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

    # Handle Authorization Header
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
    RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>
