Company Logo not displaying in Dashboard and Invoice

I have installed InvoiceNinja in my Hostinger Shared Hosting using their Auto Installer. And when I try to generate an invoice, I get

Error 500:

Here is my .env file:

I checked with Hostinger that mod_rewrite is enabled by default for all accounts. But I am seeing index.php in my URL. I also noticed while logging that the URL of the image works if I change the URL to …public/storage/… instead of just …/storage/…

Any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

Sorry for the trouble folks. It fixed when I replaced the APP_URL with https://wayhike.in/invoice/public
