Problem with Laravel project

1

Issue Description:
Attempting to install a Laravel project
Atlas Laravel Business Directory Listing
https://codecanyon.net/item/atlas-laravel-business-directory-listing/56469797
on Debian 12 with HestiaCP 1.9.4 results in a Gateway Timeout. All logs (Apache, PHP-FPM, Laravel) are empty.
Fresh install Debian12 and updates
The problem doesn’t occur on other hosting “Timeweb”
Project installs quickly and easily.

Environment:

  • OS: Debian 12

  • HestiaCP: 1.9.4

  • PHP: 8.2 (CLI and FPM)

Symptoms:

  1. Running:

cd /home/USER/web/DOMAIN/public_html
php8.2 artisan --version
→ Cursor hangs, command does not complete.

  1. Apache error:
    AH01075: Error dispatching request to : (polling)

Diagnostics performed:

  • open_basedir is disabled (no value).

  • Standard PHP script <?php echo 'OK'; works fine.

Problem:
No errors appear in logs. Web requests return Gateway Timeout.

Request:

  • Are there known issues with HestiaCP 1.9.4 running Laravel on Debian 12 with PHP 8.2 that?

  • Any recommended steps to diagnose or resolve Laravel execution issues under HestiaCP?

Additional info:
strace results are available for deeper analysis if needed.

Thank you for your assistance!

I’ve done a Laravel domain today by using completely default settings. After finding that Laravel is in the Quick install options.

I am on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS though.

  1. Changed web domain’s setting from default to Laravel pre-set option.
  2. Installed composer with -g option and all worked fine did not have to do anything

Let me know if you want to compare configs or someting..
