This seem to not work :))) The .env file is in /home/user/.config/.env The Webspace is /home/user/webroot/public_html

// this code is in /home/user/webroot/public_html/index.php
$envfile = realpath(__DIR__ .'/../../.config/');    // is /home/user/.config/
$dotenv = Dotenv\Dotenv::createImmutable($envfile);
