Basically for a Facebook tab I have a PHP app and want Heroku to use the 'public' folder as the web server's root folder instead of pointing to the very root of the app. Any help would be awesome as it seems Heroku doesn't have a ton of documentation around it's config options. Thank you.
I hosted my php codeigniter project on heroku lastmonth, so unless there is a server side configuration needed for your project. You should be able to host your zend project by pushing it as git repository to heroku. Just follow these tutorials.

Not sure of that but Heroku's website says "Agile deployment for Ruby, Node.js, Clojure, Java, Python, and Scala.". But since there's no mention of PHP I think you can't deploy your Zend app on Heroku.
EDIT : my assertion was false, see comments
Thats not entirely correct (or no longer correct) - if you put a repository with an index.php in the root up it seems to recognise that as a php app.
The answer is not yet at least. They only offer the Facebook app hosting. I have gone with PHPFog for quick PHP hosting now.
EDIT: PHPFog is no more, now they have AppFog.

I have been really interested in Flutter for the last few months and have been following the beta Flutter for web information. I was wondering, other than the ones mentioned in the documentation (Firebase, Github, Google Cloud), is there a way to currently test my app via using my Hostgator hosting and use something like Filezilla to publish the application/site?
I understand this is in a beta state. I only ask because the documentation states that there is a way to publish via those services but doesn't mention the way I am asking. I also understand that this is not production-ready.
Thank you all for any help
You can just run:
flutter build web
And then copy the contents of build/web to your web host's document root via a panel or FTP or something else.
I need to edit application developed by somebody else in Meteor.js deployed on Digitalocean. I have an access to digitalocean account, but have no idea how to access code and the whole folder where is application stored. Is this even possible ? Should I ask him for github repo with the app to get it instead ? Thanks.
Ask for the repo. The server may only contain the built version of the app (since that's all that's needed to run it) and that's no good for developing. You can't edit that directly.
Can I use Heroku to deploy an HTML prototype?
My HTML prototypes live on Github and Heroku would be a nice way to deploy them so clients can view them.
It seems that this is unsupported, since Heroku expects a Rails/NodeJS/[insert language here] structure or it won't run.
Push rejected, no Cedar-supported app detected
Are there any tricks to circumvent this?
The best solution would be to use a buildpack designed for hosting static content.
I'd suggest the experimental heroku/heroku-buildpack-static buildpack. In brief, just set the buildpack:
heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-static.git
And add a static.json indicating which directory contains your static assets:
{"root":"public"}
The least effort solution is to rename your default file to index.php and redeploy. Heroku will detect it as a PHP site and use that buildpack.
Alternatively, you can follow this guide https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/static-sites-ruby to set up a sinatra app to host it.
I've not done it before but since you mentioned using github. Why not use Github Pages to show the prototype.
You can always use an nginx buildpack to run nginx on heroku:
https://github.com/neilmiddleton/heroku-buildpack-nginx
I've used it with great success to handle a large batch of complex redirects and act as a reverse proxy to a new heroku app for an old, defunct application. Here's a simple config example that will get a static site up and running: https://gist.github.com/leklund/5877422.
I am setting up my Symfony project on the production site. # this point it states:
This project uses the symfony libraries. If you see no image in this page, you may need to configure your web server so that it gains access to the symfony_data/web/sf/ directory.
Which basically means, I need to get into httpd.conf file and make some changes (for those who have diligently followed the Symfony tutorials, you guys know what I am talking about). Given this situation, I am not sure how I can go about configuring the httpd.conf file on the production server.
Anyone have any strategies around this? Thanks,
Parijat
You can do it by adding symbolic link from your symfony_data/web/sf to web/sf but your web server must follow symbolic links or you can add "Options Indexes FollowSymLinks" in to your .htaccess
I have been trying to run a symfony project I created recently using symfony 1.4.
But pointing to the url (xyz.in) simply shows up the directory structure of the application
In the CPanel I have edited the document root to be upto app/web/ directory
After doing this all I can see is a blank page and nothing else.
What might be wrong? What are the necessary steps for deploying a symfony project to a shared hosting?
You can check the rights on cache and log directories, Apache needs write rights. Ther are many problems with symfony and shared hosting, but it's not an impossible task.
