    Hello,

    We are currently running iTop with Nginx and PHP-FPM, but we’re exploring a move to FrankenPHP (which uses Caddy under the hood) for performance and simplicity.

    We've already successfully launched a development instance of iTop using FrankenPHP, and everything appears to be working fine so far.

    Before we consider moving this setup into production, we’d like to ask the community:

    • Is FrankenPHP considered compatible or officially supported for iTop?
    • Has anyone else run iTop in production with FrankenPHP?
    • Are there any known limitations or risks we should be aware of?

    Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

    Best regards,
    Matteo

      Hey @mat7eo889, sorry for the late answer.

      • FrankenPHP isn't officially supported for iTop. At Combodo we didn't do any "official" test to know if it's compatible or supported.
      • I personally didn't run iTop in production with FrankenPHP, but it would be very interesting to have feedback of people that did it
      • In the limitations page of FrankenPHP (https://frankenphp.dev/docs/known-issues/) I can see one on imap, but it shouldn't cause problem on iTop

      I'd also love to have feedback ! Thanks for opening this topic :)
