PHP: Resource Temporarily Unavailable for simple "hello world"
php
Solution
Ah, don't add the `.`. The built-in server uses the CWD as document root (or the path specified via the `-t` flag). You're attempting to use `.` as a router script. Simply run...
php -S localhost:8080
See http://php.net/manual/features.commandline.webserver.php
Problem
I've just installed PHP. ``` $ php -v PHP 5.5.7 (cli) (built: Dec 11 2013 20:55:14) Copyright (c) 1997-2013 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.5.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2013 Zend Technologies ``` I created a new directory called `test/` with one file called `test.php` containing this: ``` <?php echo "hello world"; ``` When I start a php server and try to load it in the browser, I get a "Resource temporarily unavailable" error: ``` johnny at arch in ~/Projects/test $ php -S localhost:8080 . PHP 5.5.7 Development Server started at Sun Jan 5 22:34:01 2014 Listening on http://localhost:8080 Document root is /home/johnny/Projects/test Press Ctrl-C to quit. [Sun Jan 5 22:34:18 2014] PHP Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Resource temporarily unavailable in Unknown on line 0 [Sun Jan 5 22:34:18 2014] PHP Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '.' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in Unknown on line 0 [Sun Jan 5 22:34:19 2014] PHP Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0 [Sun Jan 5 22:34:19 2014] PHP Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '.' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in Unknown on line 0 ``` I have Googled this and all issues I've found are people who are trying to `include()` another file in some way (using other PHP methods). Haven't found anything similar to what I'm experiencing with just a simple echo statement. NOTE: I've tried giving full read/write/execute permissions to both the `test.php` file and the `test/` directory; same results.
