I have a PHP app on heroku, which was deployed without issues as the following repository structure:
myapp
├── connect.php
├── elec.php
├── index.php
└── key.php
I cloned the app on a different machine, and reorganised the app as follows:
myapp
├── auth-server
│ ├── composer.json
│ ├── connect.php
│ ├── election.php
│ ├── index.php
│ └── key.php
├── poll-server
└── Procfile
with the Procfile containing the following:
web: vendor/bin/heroku-php-apache2 auth-server/
However, the deployement fails with the following message:

Since I have both, index.php and composer.json, at the document root specified by the Procfile, the error message does not seem to provide accurate information on what's missing.
Further, I checked out the commit that worked on the previous machine (which is also the current deployed version) only to find it now failing with the same message as above.
