Creando un Nuevo Proyecto de Symfony 5

Hey Juan,

Hm, yeah, sounds like permissions issue. What command did you run exactly to fix the permissions? Could you try "sudo chmod -R 777 var/cache/" and "sudo chmod -R 777 var/log/"? Does it help? If no - I wonder what OS do you run? Also, do you use Docker or other virtulatization tool for running this project? Probably there's a better path where you could put that project?

Cheers!

Hello!! Thank you very much for the directions. I was able to fix it. After several formulas, changing permissions of different folders and investigating solutions, I changed my project directory and removed the synchronization that it had with Google Drive and it could work for me. I don't know if this had anything to do with the problem. Thank you very much!!

Hey Juanma,

I'm happy to hear to works for you now! Yeah, syncing with G Drive might cause problems, as it may lock files, but not 100% sure, anyway, it's redundant for projects, as your projects should live in Git repo on e.g. GitHub.

Cheers!

Hey Juan S.

How did you create your project? By default it should install the latest release of Symfony, which makes me wonder if you're using an old PHP version (By old I mean lower than 7.2)

Cheers!

Hello, and thank you for your reply.

Yes, at the beginning I thought it was a problem with the php version, because the PHP installed by default with Mac OS Movaje is PHP 7.1 but after install PHP 7.3.8 and try again the command:
curl -sS https://get.symfony.com/cli... | bash
it continues installing Symfony 4.4.20.

Follow you can read the commands that I have executed:

This is the output of php-v:

Then start a new shell and run 'symfony'

Gracias Diego ;-)

Ahh but you're talking about the Symfony CLI version, not the Symfony framework version. What happens when you run symfony new folder_name?

De nada Juan! Nos conocemos? :)

Hello Diego

This is the output of the command:

I have noticed in this output that It said PHP version 7.1.33. But If I execute php -v in the same directory:

I think maybe I have a problem with the PHP configuration.

I am running Mac OSX Mojave, I can not upgrade to a newer version of OSX because a compatibility issue with a very expensive sound card.

Gracias Diego, creo que no nos conocemos.. yo estoy escribiendo desde Madrid

Hey Juan!

Hmm, that's odd. In theory, Symfony CLI should use the same PHP version as your PHP CLI version. Let's try a couple of things. First run local:php:refresh and then symfony local:php:list at the root of your project, this will show a list with all the PHP versions available on your system.
After that, create a .php-version file and write in there "7.2.15" or any other available version on your system, and then, try to create a new project again.
If nothing works, you can install Symfony manually, you only have to clone the "Skeleton" or "Web-skeleton" repository (https://github.com/symfony/skeleton), and run composer install. Let me know if that worked

Entonces creo que no nos conocemos, yo estoy en México :)
Saludos!

Thank you Diego! Now it works.

After creating the .php-version text file with the PHP version (without quotes) it works.

I had a misunderstanding with Symfony versions. I thought that both CLI version and the Symfony project should have the same version, but now I have noticed that the last version of the Symfony CLI is 4.23.2. And the latest version of the Symfony Framework is 5.2.5.

Can you confirm me this?

I hope this helps other symfony developers.

¡Un fuerte abrazo!

Hey Juan, I'm glad to know that it's working for you now, and yes, Symfony CLI and Symfony framework are two different softwares. Sorry about the double quotes confusion :p

Salud!

I think that's the CLI version number. What does your localhost:8000 screen say?

Hey Mike,

Thanks for this tip! Yeah, keep the Symfony CLI version up to date is always a good idea. For this, just run "symfony self:update" to pull new changes.

Cheers!

Hey Stephen Spittal

It's likely that you download the file in a different folder. What happens when you run curl -sS https://get.symfony.com/cli/installer | bash?

It downloads and installs as far as I can tell and tells me to move to use it globally

Interesting... can you double-check that the directories /Users/stephenspittal/.symfony and /usr/local/bin/ exists in your computer?
It's possible that you need to re-open your terminal after moving the binary

Cheers!

Diego it tells me I don't have permissions

File and folder move command issues on Linux (File permissions Step 2)

sudo chmod -R a+rwx /path/to/folder

https://smallbusiness.chron....

Bear in mind I am not a Linux security expert so I don't know if the site is going OTT with folder permissions. But I had move permission denied errors and the above worked and stopped the error.

I assume this is fixed now but for all future viewers.

Hey Nicky S.!

You "shouldn't" (I'm using quotes because... in programming, there are always surprises 😉) need to change any permissions to get things working on this step. But if this comes up again and you're having file permissions issues (and care enough to debug), let us know what's going on and we'll see if we can help :).

Cheers!

ahh it makes sense now! Try running it with sudo

Sudo symfony?

Oh sorry, I meant the last step, moving the binary file to /usr/local/bin/. If you already downloaded the binary but the bash script failed due to permissions, then you just have to make sure that /Users/stephenspittal/.symfony/bin/symfony exists and the move it to its destination manually

Hey Bob19,

Yeah, ideally you need to run the Composer via the specific version of PHP like you did, it should prevent some possible errors.

Cheers!

Hey Jimmy,

Well, that should not be a problem, but it's odd that you cannot use localhost. Perhaps you need to edit your hosts file so that localhost points to 127.0.0.1

Hey @Shayma,

can you run php or composer commands directly from your shell?

Cheers!

Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for your respond, Yes I can run composer, but php not apparently, it it sticks, and I don't have any error

That is correct PHP behavior, to test it you should run php -v

Try to run symfony new crud_system -vvv to look where and why your project creation stucks

Cheers!

Hi,

I did that, but I stil have the same error unable to run composer.phar create-project symfony/skeleton C:\Users\shaym\crud_system --no-interaction

I realy need to fix it before next week :(

B.T.W, the project is created but not compleet

The index is missing!

[Web Server ] Dec 16 09:39:10 |WARN | HTTP unable to detect the front controller, disabling the PHP server error="Passthru script \"/index.php\" does not exist under C:\\Users\\shaym\\crud_system\\: CreateFile C:\\Users\\shaym\\crud_system\\index.php: The system cannot find the file specified."

Now I have tried to create the project from the composer: $ composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton crud_system
And that workd. But is this normal? should I do somthing to fix it?

woh that is weird, ok lets try another way. Remove`
crud_system`
folder completely and try

composer create-project symfony/skeleton:"^5.0" crud_system```


I selected version 5.0 to be in sync with current course, but you may select any version you want depending on your needs

Cheers!

Yeah that works! Thank you so much

But I stil not get it why command symfomy new not working...

That is tricky question, you are using native windows console, probably some paths are misconfigured, as I see it tries to execute phar file, probably that is the issue, but why symfony cli did it this way is mystery and needs a lot of investigation

BTW I'd recommend to use WSL for development on Windows PC it helps a lot =)

Cheers!

Thank you so much!!

Hey, I had the same issue, I fixed that by creating a GitHub account...

Hey @Anthony-I

That's weird. Did you get any errors while trying to create a new project (before you created a GitHub account)?

No errors but I think thats because the command is running with --no-interaction by default.

Yea, that's possible. I guess that you were hitting an API rate limit

Hello Matt,

I had the same issue.
Try to run :

> symfony check:requirements

This command checks if your environnement is ready for Symfony and what are the missing extensions.
In my side I got this message :

 [ERROR]
 Your system is not ready to run Symfony projects


Fix the following mandatory requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 * simplexml_import_dom() must be available
   > Install and enable the SimpleXML extension.

So I install SimpleXML extension with : sudo apt-get install php-xml
After this installation, the creation of project work

Hey Matt,

Could you explain a bit more? Are you talking about "symfony" CLI tool you downloaded locally? What command exactly did you run? We do recommend you to follow the course by downloading a course code on a course chapter page (see "Download" button in the top right corner of the page) and start from the start/ directory. That directory has README.md file with instructions you need to follow to bootstrap the project locally.

Cheers!

I had a similar issue, after running "symfony new cauldron_overflow" in my terminal it creates that folder - cauldron_overflow, but all there is inside is:
-vendor folder
-.env
-composer.json
-composer.lock
-symfony.lock

Hey Matt!

Hmm, that is super weird! What is inside the vendor/ directory? Is there a bunch of stuff (like vendor/symfony should have quite a few directories) or is it mostly empty? What about the symfony.lock file? It DOES look like, for some reason, the recipes didn't execute. But I want to prove that first. If you just try the command again, does it work? Or do you get this result every time?

Cheers!
