TYPO3 Core

Hey just tried it using ddev. Backend works as expected.
But frontend returns the mentioned message, which is normal.

Steps ...

composer create "typo3/cms-base-distribution:^11" // Install it prior installing configuring DDEV, which allows ddev to detect TYPOP3
cd cms-base-distribution
ddev config
ddev start
touch public/FIRST_INSTALL

Sample config.yml

name: cms-base-distribution
type: typo3
docroot: public
php_version: "7.4" 
webserver_type: nginx-fpm
router_http_port: "80" 
router_https_port: "443" 
xdebug_enabled: false
additional_hostnames: []
additional_fqdns: []
mariadb_version: "10.2" 
mysql_version: "" 
provider: default
use_dns_when_possible: true
composer_version: "" 

Hope this helps

Michele, please keep your DDEV always up to date. Looks like you are using an old version which does not support the new BE routing, this was introduced with DDEV 1.16.5. Follow the instructions at https://github.com/drud/ddev/releases/latest to update your DDEV Local installation.

Jochen, please do not use composer outside of the container, always use `ddev composer ...` instead of a plain composer on the host. Also have a look at the docs to setup your TYPO3 correctly with DDEV Local see https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/cli-usage/#typo3-quickstart and https://get.typo3.org/version/11.
