无法使用php Web服务器访问管理区域processwire

Question

I have a fresh install of Processwire, and I've set the admin area to 'admin'.

However, as I'm using a Cloud9 selfhosted IDE, I run my dev projects using the PHP webserver.

I cannot access the admin panel, as the routing is designed around a .htaccess rewrite

I followed this guide https://processwire.com/talk/topic/13445-using-phps-built-in-webserver-with-processwire/ to create a routing file, but with no joy.

How can I get a dev processwire site up and running using the PHP server?

Answer 1

Nevermind.. Turns out C9 wasn't running 'routing.php' but still launching the 'index.php' file.

Not sure how to make it run a non-index file?

Answer 2

Run php -S localhost:8000 routing.php from the web root. The routing.php file should be there, of course.
