Hey guys,
I have a Laravel app which is working fine locally but when deploying to App Platform via Github I keep getting this error:

The line being referenced here is $app = require_once __DIR__.'/bootstrap/app.php';
I’ve tried changing the source_dir
to ./
, but it didn’t resolve the issue. The deployment log indicates that the workspace root is set to /workspace
, which may be causing the problem:
1 01:09:52] │ ✔ cloned repo to /workspace

[2024-03-11 01:09:52] › applying source directory ./
[2024-03-11 01:09:52] ✔ using workspace root /workspace
My Laravel app includes a built-in installer that resides at a sub-URL. Locally, when I run php artisan serve
and access the direct URL, it’s also broken until I navigate to the /install
subdomain.
I’d greatly appreciate any advice or insight on how to resolve this deployment issue. Thank you!

Hi there,
The
/workspace
directory should not really be a problem, I’ve deployed a lot of Laravel apps and never had an issue with the root directory.The error actually indicates that the
./bootstrap/app.php
file is missing, can you verify that thebootstrap
directory exists in your GitHub repository and that theapp.php
file is also committed?The
__DIR__
in the require statement is the part that automatically detects the full path to your project so it should not really matter if the Laravel app runs inside/workspace
or any other directory.If your project is open-source feel free to share a link to your repository here and I will be happy to take a further look.
Best,
Bobby
