Bienvenidos a nuestra pequeña Aplicación y setup de PhpStorm

Hey Samuel S.!

> My php storm is not bringing out the full prediction when I'm typing
> Return new response

Hmmm. This is one of the most basic features that PhpStorm gives you, so it definitely makes me think something is wrong. Two questions:

1) Does the code work? If you add the use statement and type all the code, does it work? That will help answer the question of whether or not all the vendor code is installed correctly.

2) How did you open PhpStorm? I usually go to "File -> Open" and select my entire Symfony directory. After you do this, you should see all the folders - like config/, src/ and public/ - on the left tree. If you somehow only opened a *specific* file (not the entire directory), then you would probably not get auto-complete.

> I also noticed that your initial command (symfony new cauldron_overflow) is not working

Hmm, did you get an error when you ran this? Do you remember what the error was?

Don't worry, I'm sure we'll figure out what's going on :).

Cheers!

I've seen my mistake.

I always write response with a lowercase r instead of uppercase like so: ' Response'

Your response time is impressive.
Thank you very much.
Cheers.

Ah... good catch! Thanks for letting me know - I'll put that on my "list of things that might be preventing auto-complete" to think about!

Cheer!

1. Yes, the code works when I manually input the use statement.

2. I open the the entire symfony folder.

Hey Folza,

Make sure you open https://127.0.0.1:8000/ by the HTTPS protocol instead of HTTP :)

Cheers!

Hey Pierre Lds!

Hmm, that's not what we want! Well, it *kind* of is :). After you first create a project, it's true that you don't have any "routes" yet and so if you go to the homepage, then you *should* get no matching route (which is what your error means). However, Symfony has a nice feature for this situation where it shows you that "welcome page" if you have this situation. So I'm not sure why you're not seeing that!

I've just started a new (Symfony 6) project with the symfony binary... and I see the welcome page just fine. So this is a mystery to me - I can't explain what's happening? I guess I would ignore it and keep coding, as the welcome back isn't *needed*. But keep an eye out for anything else weird, and let me know if you see anything.

Cheers!

Hey vespino_rojo

That's a good question. I'm not totally sure if it works out of the box but Symfony has Docker support, you only need to run your console commands through Symfony's binary
symfony serve -d
That will set up the env vars properly. You can read a bit more here https://symfony.com/doc/current/setup/symfony_server.html#symfony-server-docker

Cheers!

Hey Nizar

Yep we have this course on our list, but I can't provide any details when it will be released!

Cheers!

Hey Aurelien A.

Have you tried to load http://127.0.0.1:8000? If it works, then it's problem with local ssl certificates. You have two possible scenarios:

1. Use http in dev mode with symfony serve --no-tls
2. Try to fix it with symfony server:ca:install and try again with https

Cheers

Hey,

Thanks for the answer. Yes I also tried http://127.0.0.1:8000 but unfortunately it is not working.

What about re installing certificates or running symfony server without tls?

Hey, sorry for the late answer. This is not working either.This is the ouput when I run symfony server:start --no-tls

re installing certificates does not change anything either.

It is still working on http://127.0.0.1:42001, but this is inconveniant because when I want to try routes with Postman for example I have to change my base url port everytime I start the local web server

weird....What OS are you using? And how have you installed your php? some path looks weird to me so I need more info about your env to help

As suggestion to test have you tried to run native php server? with php -S 127.0.0.1:8000 -t ./public from your project folder?

Cheers and sorry for late answer 😊

Hey,

Sorry for the late answer too

I am using Windows 10 with WSL 2. I launch the server from wsl 2 terminal (ubuntu 20.04). php native server is working !

Tell me if you need more info :)

Cheers

woh my guess is that WSL2 is not fully compatible with symfony binary...as a solution try to install php-fpm package on ubuntu, this may solve your issue with symfony server... I hope it will solve it =)

Cheers!

Hey,

I tried something I should've try a long time ago. I used curl to check if I could access https://127.0.0.1:8000 and it worked, so I knew the problem came from my browser.

Then, I tried https://localhost:8000/ on my browser and it worked ! https://127.0.0.1:8000 is still not working, but it is fine. I don't really know why it didn't work but I am glad I found a solution.

Thank you for your time !

That is very strange... I'm happy that you found this solution and shared info with us!

Keep learning! Cheers!

Hey Georg,

Difficult to say, do you have any errors when you're trying to install the certs when you're on behalf of your standard user account?

> Sure, I can log as admin and install it there, but then the certificate is local, right?

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how it works internally, but you can probably try, why not? It might work. Also, you can take a look at "--p12" option for "symfony serve" command, from its description it says "Certificate path (p12 format)" - so it might work I suppose, you can try to install the certs from the admin user and try to reference to them with this option. You probably would need to change the owner of them get the access from your standard user, or probably even move them to a public dir - though not sure if it's secure or no :)

> Any workarounds to installing this certificate on my standard account?

Workarounds - well, do not use HTTPS probably. You can run the webserver with:

$ symfony serve --no-tls

This way the website will be available via HTTP only.

I hope this helps!

Cheers!

Hey Georg,

It seems like a new feature in Symfony built-in web server. For me it looks like this:

Tailing Web Server log file (/Users/victor/.symfony/log/b3fd8c54109f8b0e07dcd737c5262b5d0567b392.log)
Tailing PHP-FPM log file (/Users/victor/.symfony/log/b3fd8c54109f8b0e07dcd737c5262b5d0567b392/53fb8ec204547646acb3461995e4da5a54cc7575.log)

So this is OK, just some extra log files are shown in the output :)

Cheers!

Hey Victor,
ok, thanks for your comment.
Cheers!

Hey Diallo,

Glad to hear you were able to install PDO driver!

Hm, about Intl - looks like it's loaded twice in your PHP config, you need to look at your config and comment out or remove the line where PHP loads it the 2nd time - try to look in your php.ini config. Or, probably try to remove that "php7.4-intl" extra package and try again, it should gone. Probably it was installed and enabled out of the box already for you.

Cheers!

Hey dialbak

I believe you haven't install the php-intl module on your local environment. If you're on Ubuntu you can do this sudo apt-get install php-intl

Cheers!

hello thank's for your answer every thing work well now

Glad to hear it, keep it up!

I poked around some more and figure out that I needed to bind localhost to 127.0.0.1. That solved the issue and symfony server is now running.

Hey Wade C.

Weird situation. In most cases localhost IS binded to 127.0.0.1 by default.

Great that you solved this issue and shared result with us.

Cheers

I'm running a lot of different dev tools on my laptop, like a dev copy of Filemaker Server that runs a local webserver. I had to stop FM Server to get Symfony Server to run. Somewhere along the line, one of the dev tools probably unbound localhost.

BTW you can easily change port used by symfony server with --port=8080 ;)

Cheers!

I am going back through the tutorial and using it as a guide while I am building a new project. I have another project that I need to start on soon. Can I have a different instance of Symfony server running as a daemon for each project if I set each to a different port number? or do I have to start and stop Symfony serve depending on which project I am working on?

Great question! Of course you can start as much servers as you want =) If you have enough ports and memory to work with =) You can even have .wip domain names with built-in proxy server, but it's another story =) You can read about it here https://symfony.com/doc/current/setup/symfony_server.html

Hey @Shayma

You need to run symfony server:ca:install to install a local SSL certificate, then you will be able to run your project through https locally

Cheers!

Thank you to help me, i actually repeat everything from the beginning but i have this error:
What is that supposed to mean?

Setting up the project under Git version control
(running git init C:\Users\shaym\cauldron_overflow)

|
*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'shaym@LAPTOP-8877L5EN.(none)')

exit status 128

Hey @Shayma!

Ah! That's not a very clear error :). It looks like you're using git for the first time on this system. Try this:

A) Run those 2 comments that it mentioned (the 2 git config commands) but you use real email and name.
B) Re-run the `symfony new</command>

When you first use git on a machine, it asks you to set your name & email. It does this so that when you make any commits, it can use your email and name for those commits. The symfony new command failed because it tries to setup a git repository for you, but those 2 settings weren't there yet.

Let me know if that helps!

Cheers!

Hey,

Thanks! it's worked when i put my real email. but now i have another issue :( sorry to bothering you!

it says when i run php -s 127.0.0.1:8000 -t public/: Directory public/ does not exist.

And when i do the check:req, it's says that's ok but php need to be installed:

a PHP accelerator should be installed
> Install and/or enable a PHP accelerator (highly recommended).

* realpath_cache_size should be at least 5M in php.ini
> Setting "realpath_cache_size" to e.g. "5242880" or "5M" in
> php.ini* may improve performance on Windows significantly in some
> cases

Can you tell me how to solve this problem?

Hey Shayma,

The better would be to run the project on Symfony web server instead of running built-in PHP web server as you do. If you have symfony binary installed - you just need to run:

$ symfony serve

And it will run the website, then just follow the link in the output.

But in case you want to run the website with PHP built-in web server - looks like the error is pretty obvious, it says the public/ folder does not exist. I suppose you created a new project, but then you should go into the project directory. I.e. after you executed "symfony new my-new-project" Symfony binary created a "my-new-project" folder, so you need to change directory to it, i.e. execute "cd my-new-project" and only then run that "php -s 127.0.0.1:8000 -t public/". When you're in your "my-new-project" directory, to make sure you have public/ folder - you can run "ls public/" command in your terminal.

I hope this helps!

About "check:req" output: if those are just warnings/recommendations - you can completely ignore them for now, the project should run well. But it's recommend to do for production when you will deploy your application for real users. Google how to install PHP accelerator or how to tweak that php.ini config for your OS - it may be different for different OS.

Cheers!

Hey Victor,

Thanks a lot!! You really helped me out. It's working now. I appreciate your help.

Cheers

Hey Shayma,

Great! Thanks for confirming that it works for you now ;)

Cheers!
