Ubuntu Laravel 5.5 images not shown

In Ubuntu 16.04, I have a project in Laravel 5.5 and I stored some images through script. The image files are stored into the path:

root-of-laravelProject/stroage/app/public/

however, if I want to display them directly in the browser like : http://127.0.0.1:8000/storage/image_1523525873.png , the images are not showing (Sorry, the page you are looking for could not be found). I also used this command : php artisan storage:link however, it shows:

The "public/storage" directory already exists.

If you can't automatically create a symbolic link using php artisan storage:link, create one manually from the terminal.

Go to your <project>/public/ directory. Open terminal in that directory. And run the following command:

ln -s ../storage/app/public/

This will generate a symbolic link pointing to: <project>/storage/app/public/

And if you still have issue with permission. Try with sudo:

sudo ln -s ../storage/app/public/
