Brody•10mo ago

beat me to it applicable docs link https://nixpacks.com/docs/providers/php#php

70OP•10mo ago

I already followed the docs thats why im asking here

If a NIXPACKS_PHP_ROOT_DIR variable is passed, that will be used as the server root. If a NIXPACKS_PHP_FALLBACK_PATH variable is passed, that will be used as a fallback for the server - for instance, if your app uses index.php as a router, you would set this variable to /index.php.

Brody•10mo ago

oh so you already have those variables set and you are getting a 404?

70OP•10mo ago

. I'm not getting a 404 im getting the literal message file not found

Brody•10mo ago

how is that not the same as 404 lol

70OP•10mo ago

I thought you meant the nginx 404 view my bad but ok its a so called 404

Brody•10mo ago

what does your project structure look like?

70OP•10mo ago

well a public folder for my routing with a index.php an app folder and a views folder thats it and some other files like composer.json I did this before and it worked. idk why not rn

Brody•10mo ago

so your root directory is the project directory itself?

70OP•10mo ago

what do you mean

Brody•10mo ago

the root directory of your php app is just the root directory of the project?

70OP•10mo ago

Brody•10mo ago

please show me your project structure

70OP•10mo ago

70OP•10mo ago

inside public idk what this is lol i used this before and it worked perfectly fine so weird

Brody•10mo ago

you already have these set, correct?

70OP•10mo ago

yes

Brody•10mo ago

@aleks - any ideas here?

70OP•10mo ago

I even tried a clean folder made a new folder called public with a index.php just a message saying hello and still the same issue

Brody•10mo ago

where have you set those nixpacks variables?

70OP•10mo ago

in my variable tab

70OP•10mo ago

Brody•10mo ago

is your build detected as php?

70OP•10mo ago

yes

Brody•10mo ago

show me please

70OP•10mo ago

like that right

Brody•10mo ago

yes show the specific error you get?

70OP•10mo ago

Brody•10mo ago

gotcha

70OP•10mo ago

this is so weird

Brody•10mo ago

we shall wait for aleks

70OP•10mo ago

is aleks an expert

Brody•10mo ago

yes he wrote the php provider

70OP•10mo ago

oh nice it worked before perhaps something changed uh i still didn’t fix it could you try @Brody making a new project with same file structure and see if it works on your end

Brody•10mo ago

dont know php

70OP•10mo ago

oh <?php echo ‘message’; 🙃

Brody•10mo ago

wheres the closing tag

70OP•10mo ago

you don’t need it if you’re purely writing php sometimes if you close a php file with only php in it you could cause issues

Brody•10mo ago

told you I didn't know php

70OP•10mo ago

thas ok you probably know other stuff that I don’t

Brody•10mo ago

have you tried to do what you're asking me to do?

70OP•10mo ago

yes still file not found I worked with railway before and had zero issues

Brody•10mo ago

what's your root dir set to

70OP•10mo ago

public fallback path index

Brody•10mo ago

what show me the raw editor for these variables please

70OP•10mo ago

okay i’ll finish my pizza first if you don’t mind

Brody•10mo ago

haha ofc not

70OP•10mo ago

NIXPACKS_PHP_FALLBACK_PATH=/index.php NIXPACKS_PHP_ROOT_DIR=public there

Brody•10mo ago

shouldn't it be /public

70OP•10mo ago

i tried both

Brody•10mo ago

have you tried setting the fallback path to /public/index.html

70OP•10mo ago

no i'll try that

70OP•10mo ago

i read this before still file not found

Brody•10mo ago

we will have to wait for aleks then

root•10mo ago

hmm Try using /app/public as a root directory.

70OP•10mo ago

okay will do so now

70OP•10mo ago

if i remove nixpacks variables and put my index outside public it works

root•10mo ago

Well, it should work on /, but if you don't have FALLBACK_PATH set it won't work on other paths but ROOT_DIR defaults to /app, which is where Nixpacks puts your project in the built container

70OP•10mo ago

oh so like /app/public and fallback path to index.php

root•10mo ago

(ROOT_DIR is relative to the filesystem root, not the project root)

70OP•10mo ago

yes I understand

root•10mo ago

yes, that should do it should probably add that to the docs

70OP•10mo ago

Its ok so like fallback just to index.php /index.php root to /app/public It worked before as the way I did it

root•10mo ago

just index.php, not /index.php

70OP•10mo ago

okay it works how could i not discover this myself ;/

root•10mo ago

Hooray! 🎉

70OP•10mo ago

but when i want to go to another route i get file not found again

root•10mo ago

Huh.

70OP•10mo ago

only / works when i wanna do /example (for example)

root•10mo ago

Where are you seeing file not found? In the browser or in the logs?

70OP•10mo ago

i get file not found again browser

root•10mo ago

Hmm, it looks like this is a misconfiguration in the PHP provider that I've never run into before not sure why I never ran into this before

70OP•10mo ago

damn

root•10mo ago

no, never mind, it's not that hmm Is 'file not found' the only thing you're seeing? Is there anything in the logs?

70OP•10mo ago

in deploy logs?

root•10mo ago

yes

@aleks have you changed some stuff in the last months my last project had zero issues

root•10mo ago

These are the only recent ones - the only major one is the Perl -> JS transition, and I thought I had tested that to make sure that functionality was equivalent

70OP•10mo ago

I see is there a possible way i could do it trough nginx config?

root•10mo ago

You can add a custom nginx config - just put an nginx.conf in your project and it'll be used

70OP•10mo ago

okay i'm not familar with that but i'll see if i can make it work

root•10mo ago

Alright, sorry I couldn't help with the PHP provider Let me send an nginx config that should work put this in nginx.template.conf in your project:

There are some pitfalls with this configuration due to Nix, try the one above

70OP•10mo ago

okay can i delete the nix variables

root•10mo ago

What do you mean? Oh, I see, yes, you can

70OP•10mo ago

okay thanks still getting file not found im confused

70OP•10mo ago

in my root

70OP•10mo ago

i’ll try 1 sec file not found from index now this is so weird

root•10mo ago

I don't know what's going on here, you'd probably have more luck asking in a PHP community Sorry

70OP•10mo ago

its ok ty for trying I hope you could or someone else fix it in the future back to when it worked fine 😄

Brody•10mo ago

this just a misconfiguration

70OP•10mo ago

i always configured like this and it always worked

Brody•10mo ago

unfortunately that's doesn't mean it's not a misconfiguration

70OP•10mo ago

from whose end mine?

Brody•10mo ago

yeah

70OP•10mo ago

how lol when im literally doing the things i always did and it just doesnt wanna work

Brody•10mo ago

I'm not sure what's being done wrong, sorry

70OP•10mo ago

imma start a new repo and see what happens after a few tests i notice NIXPACKS_PHP_FALLBACK_PATH=/index.php this is acting up i tried /app/public/index.php /public/index.php but no luck sadly

root•10mo ago

you tried just index.php without the /, right?

70OP•10mo ago

yes same message i give up for now

Solution

Brody•10mo ago

https://test-service2.up.railway.app/ https://test-service2.up.railway.app/test

NIXPACKS_PHP_ROOT_DIR=/app/public
NIXPACKS_PHP_FALLBACK_PATH=/index.php

NIXPACKS_PHP_ROOT_DIR=/app/public
NIXPACKS_PHP_FALLBACK_PATH=/index.php

Brody•10mo ago

my folder structure is

.
└── public/
    └── index.php

.
└── public/
    └── index.php

70OP•10mo ago

it works????????? was it because mine was NIXPACKS_PHP_FALLBACK_PATH=/index.php NIXPACKS_PHP_ROOT_DIR=/app/public instead of NIXPACKS_PHP_ROOT_DIR=/app/public NIXPACKS_PHP_FALLBACK_PATH=/index.php

Brody•10mo ago

70OP•10mo ago

then what

Brody•10mo ago

I don't know

70OP•10mo ago

. im confused

Brody•10mo ago

I did what you asked me to and it works, you're doing something wrong somewhere else wish I knew what that something was though

70OP•10mo ago

It also worked on my test application when i used this . https://railway-test-production-e88a.up.railway.app/ https://railway-test-production-e88a.up.railway.app/test

root•10mo ago

That should not affect it, but glad it's fixed!

70OP•10mo ago

very weird i'll try on my main application

Brody•10mo ago

🙂

root•10mo ago

oh sorry, I didn't scroll down, I was responding to the env var ordering

Brody•10mo ago

i mean it is fixed, just something wrong on their end

70OP•10mo ago

how tho we literally have the same variables .

Brody•10mo ago

bruh that's not the same

70OP•10mo ago

lol you have /app/public i also tried that 😄

Brody•10mo ago

if it works for me it means you have something missconfigured somewhere else

70OP•10mo ago

it also works for me now in my main project

Brody•10mo ago

there you go

70OP•10mo ago

i literally copied your variables and pasted them but i had the same before weird but glad it works

Brody•10mo ago

woohoo typo always gets ya

70OP•10mo ago

i dont think thats it because i also copied the lines from nixpacks website and tried the nginx but thanks anyways
