Rozpoczęcie pracy z Symfony może dla niektórych nie być takie proste. Oto kilka kroków, które umożliwiły mi rozpoczęcie pracy z tym frameworkiem.

0. edytujemy /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/001-mathforum

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/001-mathforum

i wpisujemy tam coś takiego:

<VirtualHost *:6060>
ServerName projekt
DocumentRoot "/home/michal/workspace/mathforum/web"
DirectoryIndex index.php
Alias /sf /home/michal/workspace/mathforum/lib/vendor/symfony/data/web/sf

<Directory "/home/michal/workspace/mathforum/lib/vendor/symfony/data/web/sf">
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from All
</Directory>

<Directory "/home/michal/workspace/mathforum/web">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Zapisujemy plik i restartujemy serwer

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

1. ściągamy http://www.symfony-project.org/get/symfony-1.2.8.zip
2. cd ~/workspace/mathforum
3. mkdir -p lib/vendor
4. cd lib/vendor
5. rozpakowujemy symfony-1.2.8.zip do lib/vendor i zmianiamy nazwę katalogu z "symfony-1.2.8" na "symfony"
6. cd ~/workspace/mathforum
7. wywołujemy http://localhost:6060/lib/vendor/symfony/data/bin/check_configuration.php

U mnie pojawiło się coś takiego:

*  symfony requirements check  *
*                              *
********************************

php.ini used by PHP: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini


** Mandatory requirements **

OK        PHP version is at least 5.2.4
OK        php.ini has zend.ze1_compatibility_mode set to off

** Optional checks **

OK        PDO is installed
[[WARNING]] PDO has some drivers installed: : FAILED
*** Install PDO drivers (mandatory for Propel and Doctrine) ***
OK        PHP-XML module is installed
[[WARNING]] XSL module is installed: FAILED
*** Install the XSL module (recommended for Propel) ***
OK        The token_get_all() function is available
OK        The mb_strlen() function is available
OK        The iconv() function is available
OK        The utf8_decode() is available
[[WARNING]] A PHP accelerator is installed: FAILED
*** Install a PHP accelerator like APC (highly recommended) ***
[[WARNING]] php.ini has short_open_tag set to off: FAILED
*** Set it to off in php.ini ***
[[WARNING]] php.ini has magic_quotes_gpc set to off: FAILED
*** Set it to off in php.ini ***
OK        php.ini has register_globals set to off
OK        php.ini has session.auto_start set to off
OK        PHP version is not 5.2.9

Naprawiamy to co trzeba:

a) [[WARNING]] PDO has some drivers installed: : FAILED

sudo apt-get install php5-dev
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.1
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev
sudo pecl install pdo

Edytujemy /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

sudo nano /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

i dodajemy tam dwie linijki do sekcji "Dynamic Extensions":

extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so

b) [[WARNING]] XSL module is installed: FAILED

sudo apt-get install php5-xsl

c) [[WARNING]] A PHP accelerator is installed: FAILED

sudo apt-get install php-apc

d) [[WARNING]] php.ini has short_open_tag set to off: FAILED
e) [[WARNING]] php.ini has magic_quotes_gpc set to off: FAILED

otwieramy /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

sudo nano /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

i podmieniamy linię

short_open_tag = On

na

short_open_tag = Off

oraz zmianiamy

magic_quotes_gpc = On

na

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

Na koniec restartujemy serwer:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

wywołujemy http://localhost:6060/lib/vendor/symfony/data/bin/check_configuration.php

i mamy nadzieję, że nie mam żadnych warningów.

8. cd ~/workspace/mathforum
9. php lib/vendor/symfony/data/bin/symfony generate:project mathforum
10. php symfony generate:app --escaping-strategy=on --csrf-secret=UniqueSecret frontend
11. w pliku config/ProjectConfiguration.class.php zmianiamy linijkę

require_once '/home/michal/workspace/mathforum/lib/vendor/symfony/lib/autoload/sfCoreAutoload.class.php';

na

require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/../lib/vendor/symfony/lib/autoload/sfCoreAutoload.class.php';

12. http://localhost:6060/frontend_dev.php/ i http://localhost:6060/index.php/ musi działać
