PHP: 504 Time-out

It's my first time deploying an PHP app, as I'm trying to pass an interview. They sent me a custom, legacy PHP framework and gave me a task which was successfully finished. I was happy till the moment I've realized that my deployment is not working :peepoexit: Error: 504 Gateway Time-out | nginx/1.24.0 I suppose the problem lays in Port usage, but I can not find anything online on how to utilize $PORT.

Solution:

Fix: 1. Delete deployment from your project 2. Click add domain again, and this time nginx's php-fpm will prompt you for a port, and suggest port of your PHP app 🪄...

Brody•5mo ago

this has nothing to do with PORT this is an issue with the code or configuration

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

Hi Brody. Glad you are here. Any idea on how to debug this issue then if I can't see any errors in logs? Locally everything works just fine (as always :hmm:).

Brody•5mo ago

are you on the v2 runtime? check your service settings

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

Yeah. Should I change to legacy? I've updated the project to PHP 8.3.8.

Brody•5mo ago

yeah try legacy, you may get more logs from legacy since there is a bug with the v2 runtime where some logs dont show up

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

@Brody I've tried to push one fix with V2, and it was building for over 10 minutes. Removed it, switched to Legacy, there are only Nginx related logs again :notstonks:

Brody•5mo ago

then that means you arent logging the error

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

Well, no, I'm trying to log at least the start of the application mate

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

It's a very very simple application, nothing can be broken here, literally

Brody•5mo ago

its going to be very hard to chase down bugs without proper logging

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

All I'm trying to say, is, I would see the log if the configuration was right and by going to "https://betterstack-project-production-7fea.up.railway.app/" I would be accessing the application. But I'm not. And I just want to learn what should I even do.

Brody•5mo ago

add proper error handling and logging

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

ok. @Brody I've pushed error-handling update, featuring logging and error handling for the root route. Nothing works, but I've got a "type" of log:

2024/06/24 16:02:26 [error] 55#55: *9 open() "/app/"" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 192.168.63.241, server: localhost, request: "GET /%22 HTTP/1.1", host: "betterstack-project-production-7fea.up.railway.app"

It's trying to access app dir, and for some reason it does not even exist?

Brody•5mo ago

@aleks php time

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

@Brody :blob_help: It works on another platform.

Brody•5mo ago

that doesn't mean you don't have something missconfigured on this platform I'm sure you've seen the meme "it works on my machine"

devnyxieOP•5mo ago

:hmm: well any help apart from being sure that my code is bad tho? :MattCool: I've commented out all of my code, simply returning "hello world" and nothing works either. Project specific settings are all default too.
