roadrunner downloads index.php instead of serve it

[DrjavaB]

I crate a mini test project to serve my older php project via roadrunner but when I start rr server and open browser it downloads the index.php file and does not execute it at all.
here is my configs

.rr.yaml

version: "2023.3.8"
server:
  command: "php worker.php"

http:
  address: 127.0.0.1:8080
  middleware: [ "static" ]
  static:
    dir: "../shop"
    forbid: [ "" ]
    calculate_etag: true
    weak: true
    allow: [ ".php" ]
  pool:
    num_workers: 1
    debug: true

worker.php

<?php

use Nyholm\Psr7\Response;
use Spiral\Goridge;
use Spiral\RoadRunner;

ini_set('display_errors', 'stderr');
require __DIR__ . "/vendor/autoload.php";


$worker = RoadRunner\Worker::create();
$psr7 = new RoadRunner\Http\PSR7Worker(
    $worker,
    new \Nyholm\Psr7\Factory\Psr17Factory(),
    new \Nyholm\Psr7\Factory\Psr17Factory(),
    new \Nyholm\Psr7\Factory\Psr17Factory()
);

while ($req = $psr7->waitRequest()) {
    try {
        $resp = new Response();
        $resp->getBody()->write('Nothing to see here, move along...');
        $psr7->respond($resp);
    } catch (\Throwable $e) {
        $psr7->getWorker()->error((string)$e);
    }
}

index.php in shop directory

<?php

require dirname(__FILE__).'/config/config.inc.php';
Dispatcher::getInstance()->dispatch();

anyone can explain me how to serve php project with rr server?

Hey @DrjavaB 👋
Firstly, .. in the path is not allowed. You should see a 403, IIRC status code. Next, you allowed .php extension. And since you have an index.php in the allowed folder with allowed extension, RR serves this file and the browser will download it as you requested.

yes! octane serve anything you write in laravel

Then, please, read their docs, which I sent you in my previous response, specify RoadRunner as the server, and you are welcome to use it 😃
However, your RR experience will be limited by the http plugin, so if you want to use Queues, gRPC, real workflows (temporal.io), KV, WebSockets, etc - feel free to use our framework (SpiralFramework) or send PR (or feature request ticket) to the Octane.

I realy love rr but our cto give me a task to speedup our php project and I select rr but I get confused how to serve index.php and project entry point without any minor change in it.

Glad to hear that 👍
With RR you have to create a worker. It is really simple since we're strictly following PSR-7 modern approach. Here you may find a step-by-step instruction: link
Without worker mode, you have to use PHP-FPM, apache_mod, nginx, etc. We're working on a modern solution, but it'll be presented next year.
