Frequently asked

How do I deploy a CakePHP app to fortrabbit?
Git push

Git push - Push your repository; the build runs Composer and swaps in the release atomically. Add a MySQL component, set env vars in the dashboard, and run the cake console and migrations over SSH.

#
Can I host an older version of CakePHP?
Yes

Yes - Your `composer.json` decides the CakePHP version and the PHP release is selected to match, so a long-running app from an earlier major version keeps working.

#
Do you have a CakePHP-specific guide?
It depends

It depends - CakePHP is a standard Composer-based PHP app, so the general deployment docs apply directly. Our support can help with anything specific to the setup.

#
Can I try CakePHP hosting before paying?
Yes

Yes - New apps start as a free trial — seven days, no credit card — enough to deploy a real CakePHP project.

#
Can I run CakePHP migrations and console commands?
Over SSH

Over SSH - Full SSH access is included, so the cake console, bake, and database migrations run directly against the environment. Scheduled tasks run as cron jobs.
