Question

Error when deploying php/node monorepo

Hello, using digitalocean/sample-monorepo .do/app.yaml as a guide I’ve created an app spec for my monorepo Stirreg/do-app-platform-monorepo.

During build everything seems fine, but when deploying I get the following errors in my logs:

api      | 18:26:11 DOCUMENT_ROOT changed to 'public/'
api      | 18:26:11 Using Nginx server-level configuration include 'nginx.conf'

I suspect a mismatch in paths when using a source_dir with a monorepo. Is it possible to get this running?

We are aware of this issue relating to deploying PHP applications using source_dir. We’re working on a fix and I’ll post an update here once it’s ready. Sorry for the trouble.
