What I want to:

I want to create a user to access to /var/www/laravel I create a user demo, I followed this tutorial https://support.rackspace.com/how-to/how-to-add-linux-user-with-document-root-permissions/

I can connect and see the directory, folder, edit, open, upload, etc.. but I don't want to this user getout of this directory, or go to home or other directory...

when I follow a tuto about how to jail user

I followed this tuto https://askubuntu.com/a/144093

at the end of the file

/etc/ssh/sshd_config

I need to put this...

Subsystem sftp internal-sftp
    Match User demo
    ChrootDirectory %h
    ForceCommand internal-sftp
    AllowTcpForwarding no

and comment this line

#Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server

PD: and restart ssh service ssh restart

but when I do that, I can't connect via ssh-sftp, I use Bitvise and it show me an error:

windows error 10054

There is manual page for sshd_config(5) and it contains all information for all you want to set up your server. For you, there is important part about chroot directory:

ChrootDirectory

Specifies the pathname of a directory to chroot(2) to after authentication. At session startup sshd(8) checks that all components of the pathname are root-owned directories which are not writable by any other user or group. After the chroot, sshd(8) changes the working directory to the user's home directory.

This means that you need to execute:

chown root:root /var/www
chmod go-w /var/www

This is the answer
