I am learning how to move my existing PHP project to gCloud.
For the same, I created an AppEngine project and have placed my code there.

Everything seems to work except the PHP files.

When I launch my project, the index files launches (as specified in app.yaml) and then where the PHP should execute, it's renders the index.html file. This creates a deadly loop of index calling PHP calling index calling PHP :(

I am sure I have my app.yaml wrong, but am unable to figure out where the problem is.

My yaml looks like this:

runtime: php55

api_version: 1

threadsafe: true

handlers:  

- url: /dialpad_research/(.*.(appcache|manifest))

  mime_type: text/cache-manifest

  static_files: dialpad_research/static/1

  upload: dialpad_research/static/(.*.(appcache|manifest))



- url: /dialpad_research/static

  static_dir: dialpad_research/static



# image files

- url: /dialpad_research/static/(.*.(bmp|gif|ico|jpeg|jpg|png))

  static_files: static/1

  upload: static/(.*.(bmp|gif|ico|jpeg|jpg|png))

# dialpad root

- url: /dialpad_research.*

  static_files: dialpad_research/static/index.html

  upload: dialpad_research/static/index.html



- url: /dialpad_research/api/(.+.php)$

  script: api/1

Any help is appreciated.

Folder structure is like this:

Root

|

---- app.yaml

---- dialpad_research (folder)

     |

     ---- static (folder with index file)

     ---- api (folder with PHP files)

You have to be careful with your regex matching. This url pattern:

- url: /dialpad_research/static

will match:

- url: /dialpad_research/static(anything to follow)

So, it will never get to the handler below:

- url: /dialpad_research/static/(.*.(bmp|gif|ico|jpeg|jpg|png))

Same for:

- url: /dialpad_research.*

After that, it can never get to:

- url: /dialpad_research/api/(.+.php)$

Reorder your handlers so that they don't short-circuit.

Next, /api/ and /static/ are not at the root so your paths to them are incorrect. See below:

handlers:  

- url: /dialpad_research/(.*.(appcache|manifest))

  mime_type: text/cache-manifest

  static_files: dialpad_research/static/1

  upload: dialpad_research/static/(.*.(appcache|manifest))



# image files

- url: /dialpad_research/static/(.*.(bmp|gif|ico|jpeg|jpg|png))

  static_files: dialpad_research/static/1

  upload: dialpad_research/static/(.*.(bmp|gif|ico|jpeg|jpg|png))



- url: /dialpad_research/api/(.+.php)$

  script: dialpad_research/api/1



- url: /dialpad_research/static

  static_dir: dialpad_research/static



# dialpad root

- url: /dialpad_research.*

  static_files: dialpad_research/static/index.html

  upload: dialpad_research/static/index.html
