Symfony 2 : Generated bundle will not find routes

Question

I understand that symfony recommends to use the default AppBundle (as stated in this page http://symfony.com/doc/current/best_practices/creating-the-project.html ), however because my project is comprised of a number of stand-alone apps, I would like to separate them into their own bundles.

I am trying to generate a bundle with help of the symfony2 console generate:bundle command. Directory structures seem to be all in place, however I constantly get an error message that the route is not defined, although I have defined it.

The exception I get:

request.ERROR: Uncaught PHP Exception Symfony\\Component\\HttpKernel\\Exception\\NotFoundHttpException: "No route found for "GET /hello/somename"" at C:\\wamp\\www\\symfony\\test\\app\\cache\\prod\\classes.php line 2480 {"exception":"[object] (Symfony\\Component\\HttpKernel\\Exception\\NotFoundHttpException(code: 0): No route found for \\"GET /hello/somename\\" at C:\\wamp\\www\\symfony\\test\\app\\cache\\prod\\classes.php:2480, Symfony\\Component\\Routing\\Exception\\ResourceNotFoundException(code: 0): at C:\\wamp\\www\\symfony\\test\\app\\cache\\prod\\appProdUrlMatcher.php:35)"} []

Here is the setup:

routing.yml:

my:
    resource: "@MyBundle/Resources/config/routing.php"
    prefix:   /
app:
    resource: "@AppBundle/Controller/"
    type:     annotation

routing.php:

use Symfony\Component\Routing\RouteCollection;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Route;

$collection = new RouteCollection();

$collection->add('my_homepage', new Route('/hello/{name}', array(
    '_controller' => 'MyBundle:Default:index',
)));

return $collection;

MyBundle/Controller/DefaultController.php

namespace MyBundle\Controller;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;

class DefaultController extends Controller
{
    public function indexAction($name)
    {
        return $this->render('MyBundle:Default:index.html.twig', array('name' => $name));
    }
}

The bundle is also properly registered in the AppKernel class.

As I understand it, calling mydomain.local/hello/somename should do the trick, but it won't work.

PS I Also tried the annotation method, but it wont work either (I get the same result)

PS 2 I know this is a much asked question, but non of the answers I have found so far seems to be helping me with the issue as is.

PS 3 the default AppBundle works properly, using similar settings (but annotations instead)

Answer 1

The debug message says that you are in prod environment.

Have you tried accessing your route from the dev environment : mydomain.local/app_dev.php/hello/somename or clearing the cache ?
