Question

The website is not showing the updated code after modifying the php files

I made changes to three PHP files and uploaded and replaced the old ones in the wwwroot directly. However, the webpages still show the old content even after the app restart.

Hi @odsbyz ,

Could you please elaborate on the following:

How did you initially deploy your application (did you follow any tutorials)?

How did you go about replacing your PHP files?

Are you seeing R/W date changes on the files you changed in the debug console (https://<my-app-name>.scm.azurewebsites.net/DebugConsole)?

Ryan

I deployed initially using git. I created an Azure repo and using git transferred all the files to the repo. Then, i used the repo to build and deploy and release using several instructions on Azure MSFT Docs.

I edited three php files on my local machine and then uploaded them by dragging them to the azure's Advanced Tool's file manager. I didn't use debug console.

I see the R/W date change and the new content of the files.

But the website doesn't show the new changes.

Hi @odsbyz ,

I couldn't reproduce your issue. Using the following PHP quick start tutorial, I deployed the sample code to a local git repo on the App Service and was successfully able to update the remote contents of the site. First, I edited the file directly in kudu (using pencil icon). I then updated my local index.php file and dragged it on the kudu drag/drop target. When I refreshed my site in both instances, the content updated as expected.

If you performed different steps other than what I've outlined above, please comment down below so I can attempt to repro you issue. I will also add that if you setup a remote azure repo, then all you really to do is git add . \ git commit -m "commit message" \ git push azure master without need to drag and drop your files.

Ryan
