title: New laravel 4 installation on Cloud9, showing blank page when viewing /public folder
body: <p>I've installed Laravel 4 on Cloud9 (www.c9.io) and I can access a view directly like so:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://laravel-test-c9-anthonyhull.c9.io/tasks/app/views/hello.php" rel="nofollow">https://laravel-test-c9-anthonyhull.c9.io/tasks/app/views/hello.php</a> (which displays a "you've arrived" message)</p>
  
  <p>However, if I try to view:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://laravel-test-c9-anthonyhull.c9.io/tasks/public" rel="nofollow">https://laravel-test-c9-anthonyhull.c9.io/tasks/public</a></p>
  
  <p>I just see a blank page.</p>
  
  <p>I have ensured the following:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>MCrypt is installed</li>
  <li>app/storage permissions have been given write access</li>
  <li>I've tried running php artisan serve</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Not sure what else to try.</p>
  
  <p>Ideally what I'm after is to get:</p>
  
  <p>to automatically show the default page of my "tasks" app.</p>
