As Azure Web Apps uses IIS to host PHP applications, which can be controlled by web.config configurations. Per my experience, the issue occurred because IIS cannot find the entrance file of your PHP application.

For example:

1, the entrance file is in the root directory of your application, but the file name is not a default document which will automatically run IIS as index.php. When you visit your site, IIS will find the file in the default documents by the sort, and run the first found file.

--Solution--

E.G. the entrance file is named app.php, we can login on Azure manage portal, in the CONFIGURE tab of your site portal, add app.php under the default documents section, restart your site. enter image description here

2,the entrance file in your application is not in the root directory, e.g. the entrance file is in a folder app in the root directory. We can add a file named web.config to configure our site. enter image description here

We add URL rewrite module in web.config, like: <?xml version="1.0"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <rewrite> <rules> <clear /> <rule name="RewriteRequestsToPublic" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^(.*)$" /> <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false"> </conditions> <action type="Rewrite" url="app/index.php/{R:0}" /> </rule> </rules> </rewrite> </system.webServer> </configuration>
