symfony - creating database with doctrine

Question

let say, my database name = television everytime I try to craate database in CLEAN symfony project (I try version 2.3 or 2.5) for developer mode, it still create database "television" .. when I try to create database for production mode, it's trying to make database with same name "television"

in developer mode it should create database "television_dev", not "television"

I had one cloned project (sylius), and in this project creating databases works fine ... I try to make sure, I have all bundles same (I mean doctrine versions), but it still not working

what am I doing wrong ? what should I config ?

Answer 1

in app/config/config_dev.yml add:

doctrine:
    dbal:
        dbname:   %database_name%_dev

then you case use this command to create the db

php app/console doctrine:database:create

based on your environment either you will have television or television_dev
