无法在Windows上安装symfony

Question

Hello I am trying to install symfony on Windows. I had follow the all require steps for it but it end up with below message.

[RuntimeException] Symfony can't be installed because the downloaded package is corrupted. To solve this issue, try executing this command again:

Symfony new demo 3.2.8

When i tried above command it says :

'symfony' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I have try to reinstall composer and Symfony package both but it does not resolve the issue. It stays the same issue again.

Please help me how can I install it on Windows.

Answer 1

You are required to make it run through PHP as its a script file.

This gets the installer (which it looks like you have already)

php -r "readfile('https://symfony.com/installer');" > symfony

Then php symfony new demo 3.2.8 (asuming if php is in path otherwise you have to specify the php.exe path too)

For the full details see http://symfony.com/doc/current/setup.html

Answer 2

forget about that installer use composer from command line

composer create-project symfony/framework-standard-edition my_project_name

BTW i don't know what server you are using (wamp/xamp etc), i recomending this https://laragon.org/ it have composer and all tools that you need to start with symfony
