Symfony is keeping the promises well. Viva Symfony.

#2Wes on 2005-12-02 at 03:25

Quick instructions to getting your SVN setup for public access.

Hi,
I am using windows xampp and cygwin bash.
when installing with bash, you have to chmd 777 cache log
as it is not writable.

#6Bradigan on 2005-12-10 at 06:49

May as well post my How_To on here in case it will help someone else.
- Windows Users -
at your c:\> type the following:
set PHP_COMMAND=c:\php\php.exe
- Set the path to your PHP.exe file

then you can now do this:
cd c:\www\myaskeet\>c:\www\php\symfony> init-project askeet

The Project Has Now Been Created.
BTW, this project looks so promising! If I didn't care so much, I wouldn't try and get it going as hard as I'm trying.

#7relative^ambition on 2005-12-10 at 10:47

Rock on symfony!

Bradigan get a decent server together and then try development.

#8Jason on 2005-12-12 at 04:27

If you get the following error upon accessing your project using in debug URL..along the lines of:

"Strict Standards: strftime() [function.strftime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings...blah blah"

You are likely running PHP5.1..and thus need to explicitly set appropriate timezone for your PHP installation - One way to do this is by editing php.ini and doing the below:

;Valid PHP.ini entry example below
date.timezone ="America/New_York"

[Note: for best results, move to New York first]

#9Francois Zaninotto on 2005-12-12 at 10:16

Many of the installation issues are already solved somewhere in the forum. You should do a search there ("community" section, then click "forum") before posting your questions regarding installation here.

#10charlie on 2005-12-15 at 03:14

After a couple of hours, trying to upgrade the pear package It was done! I installed symfony.

But when run symfony -V I got the same error as matthias:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected ',', expecting '(' in .../symfony.php on line 19.

Also after upgrading again the same error.
Someone a solution?

#11fabien on 2005-12-15 at 07:43

charlie: looks like your command line is PHP4.

#12Randall on 2006-01-04 at 07:17

I just added a Wiki page describing all the steps you need to go through for an install on Windows XP. This guide does not assume that you have any prerequisite package already installed:

http://www.symfony-project.com/trac/wiki/WindowsXPDevelopmentEnvironment

#13infect on 2006-01-14 at 06:19

Bradigan, you need to add your pear directory to the php include path. It's actually really simple and shouldn't have taken long to figure out. You should never have to edit the files in order to get it working. See this thread for more info: http://www.symfony-project.com/forum/index.php/t/409/

#14Timm on 2006-01-24 at 07:00

If you are on Mac OS X and have FileVault turned on then you will get a permission error because apache can not get into your home folder. Try moving the symfony project folder to somewhere else on your drive.

#15Aaron Shafovaloff on 2006-01-27 at 05:19

I suggest using a screen capture tool and webcam to make a video tutorial, freely host it on archive.org, and made a video-podcast out of it.

#16Robert on 2006-02-02 at 04:30

Most people turn off PHP Warnings, but in our development environment, we got this when going to http://askeet for the first time:

"Strict Standards: strftime() [function.strftime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ environment variable or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/New_York' for '-5.0/no DST' instead in C:\php\PEAR\symfony\symfony\log\sfLog\file.class.php on line 272"

We're using Windows XP Pro sp2, APache 2.0.55 & manual zip install of Php 5.1.2 with php-ini-recommended as php.ini.

Otherwise, the process has been a cinch so far for this day 1 tutorial.

#17Robert on 2006-02-02 at 04:56

Oops, resolved comment #8 by adding this to php.ini file:

date.timezone = America/New_York

#18Colin Smillie on 2006-02-09 at 10:36

On FC4 with PHP5 you might also need to install php-xml to get propel working. This can normally be done with "yum install php-xml".

#19Giao Trinh on 2006-03-04 at 06:10

if you got a message "Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'pake/pakeException.class.php'..."
while running command "symfony -V" on Windows,
goto your PEAR folder and try again

#20TheGuru on 2006-03-04 at 10:50

If you have trouble connecting PHP5/Apache/MySQL5 (on Windows0, all you need to do is:
- uncomment the line "extension=php_mysql.dll"
- set the extension dir as "extension_dir = "c:/php5.1.2/ext"
(replace with your php installtion directory name here)
- copy the <MYSQL_DIR>\bin\libMySQL.dll to C:\windows or system32 directory
- restart apache server

that's all you have to do.

#21TheGuru on 2006-03-04 at 10:51

I forgot to mention in my previous post that, all those changes need to be done in "php.ini" file located in your PHP installation directory.

#22misterclean on 2006-03-06 at 10:38

People, seriously, you need to stop using Windows! You are PROFESSIONAL software developers. Come on!

*dons flame-retardent suit*

I've been trying to make sense of subversion as it relates to day one.

Svn's book suggest that one should create a repository first, create a directory structure for a project with tags, branches, and trunk, import that project into the repository, and then check it out to begin using it.

This method creates one repository which holds multiple projects.

ie.

/repos/ ----> REPOSITORY
/askeet/
/tags
/branches
/trunk
/doeet/
/tags
/branches
/trunk

The svn directions from day 1 seem to suggest that we build a new repository per project.
ie.

/repos/askeet/ ----> REPOSITORY
/tags
/branches/
/trunk

/repos/doeet/ ----> REPOSITORY
/tags
/branches
/trunk

Since I'm on DAY ONE, and I'm a novice, which way is more efficient, or the professional standard?

As it stands, I'm following the instructions given here - since I don't want to get confused running these tutorials using a different tree structure.

Thanks in advance,

Phing has now a pear channel:

pear channel-discover pear.phing.info
pear install phing/phing

#25James on 2006-03-13 at 05:36

I'm using MacOSX 10.4.5, I've managed to get most of it installed properly. I've changed my httpd.conf file so it say's:

<VirtualHost *:81>
ServerName askeet
DocumentRoot "~/sfprojects/askeet/web"
DirectoryIndex index.php

Alias /sf "/usr/local/php5/lib/php/data/symfony/web/sf"

<Directory "~/sfprojects/askeet/web">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

But I get a 404 (nb: I've changed my default port to 81 as I already have another type of web server running).

Any ideas?

#26Joshua McMichael on 2006-03-14 at 05:55

Use the full path for DocumentRoot, e.g. /Users/[homedir]/sfprojects/askeet/web. Apache will be running as the www or apache user, and won't know the context for ~/.

#27charlie on 2006-04-03 at 03:54

Indeed is PHP cli version 4 not working. Thanx for pointing out.
php5 is working very good!

#28Phil on 2006-05-04 at 05:59

If you run into problems getting the "congratulations" page, try setting 'SF_DEBUG' in project/web/index.php on true. In my case I had to disable magic_quotes, register_globals and eaccelerator.

#29Edin on 2006-05-10 at 02:21

On MacOSX 10.4.6 with apache2-2.2.0 from darwinports I had to put Allow from any into Directive part to avoid Forbidden apache page.

#30jash on 2006-06-07 at 11:21

I got this error:

Fatal error: Class 'sfPhpConfigHandler' not found

Turned out that I had to turn off zend.ze1_compatibility_mode I had turned it off in the CLI php.ini but not in the apache php.ini.

SUSE 10.1 and Gentoo have separate php.ini files for the CLI and Apache
