Provision: file_get_contents(./Caddyfile): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory

• Deployment OS: Ubuntu 20.04

I'm trying to provision a clean server in Hetzner Cloud (CCX13 - dedicated 2 vCPU 8GB RAM) with the Laravel recipe. I got an error; I tried several times with different PHP versions and removed and created the server.

The error is the following:

[servername]  ErrorException  in website.php on line 24:
[servername]
[servername]   file_get_contents(./Caddyfile): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory
[servername]
ERROR: Task provision:website failed!

The deploy.yaml file:

import:
  - recipe/laravel.php

config:
  repository: 'git@github.com:XXX/xxx'

hosts:
  servername:
    remote_user: deployer
    deploy_path: '/var/www/my-project'

tasks:
  build:
    - run: uptime

after:
  deploy:failed: deploy:unlock

I got the same error.

I resolved the error by creating a Caddyfile at the root of my application.

I think in one instance I used the same fix.

This PR solves this error: #3837

Until the next release, you could clone the master branch of this repo and run the following command in there:

php -d phar.readonly=0 bin/build -v7.4.2-fix

You can replace the version number with whatever you prefer

---

This will generate a deployer.phar file. Copy that to your projects root folder and run the following command in your projects root folder:

php deployer.phar provision

I'm not completely sure if this is the right/best way to do it, but this is how I'm making it work for me

ran into the same issue on v7.4.0 and was able to fix this by manually copying the content of the file https://github.com/deployphp/deployer/blob/master/recipe/provision/Caddyfile into another Caddyfile in the root of my project. hope this helps others out 🤗
