Question

How do you define a custom entrypoint for a PHP application?

Posted October 6, 2020 1.1k views

For most PHP applications, the entry point is structured above the root level (i.e. public/index.php, www/index.php, etc). The PHP handler for app platform only looks for an entry point in the root directory.

Cannot serve directory /workspace/: No matching DirectoryIndex (index.php,index.html,index.htm) found, and server-generated directory index forbidden by Options directive

Hi! You can set a specific directory as the document root by passing it as an argument to the run command like so:

heroku-php-apache2 public/

or

heroku-php-apache2 www/

The PHP environment uses the Heroku PHP Buildpack so you can refer to the official documentation for more info.
