Hi -

I just installed wave and when I log in I get the following error: Missing storage symlink We could not find a storage symlink. This could cause problems with loading media files from the browser.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Rob, Try php artisan storage:link and after that log in in admin and clik Fix symlink. Please check your in your laravel storage and bootstrap rights

Thanks oltean-tiberiu! After some googling I found a suggestion to run the following with the paths relevant to my application

ln -sfn /AnotherAppName/storage/app/public/ /AnotherAppName/public/storage

After doing so and logging in and clicking fix symlink the error went away. However, there are still broken avatar and other image links. Any ideas?

Figured out the broken images. The App_URL in my .env file had a mistake in it. Thanks again!
