Summary: When i upload my php app to heroku, i can't access the URL.
So i started building an android app that would need to put text and images into a database and retrieve from said database. I have chosen to use the heroku to host my applications back-end, and database. I created an app on heroku and added the clearDB add-on, so i could use MySQL for the database. My web service is built with PHP and this is where the SQL commands are run. The MySQL is currently connected with my clearDB online database. And when i try this PHP script on my local machine, it works perfectly. And my database is updated accordingly. Here is the response when i try to insert an already inserted username:
Success when running on localHost
Well instead of running on localHost, i would like to have the the app sitting on heroku so any mobile device can access it. when i upload it to my heroku app and click on the app url is says
"Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server."
Is it possible to do what i'm trying to do with heroku? If it is, where could the problem be coming from and if not can you recommend any other service that would make this process smoother.
