Symfony Url Generator producing different URLs from the same Route before and after login

Question

I currently using Symfony Kernel and Routing within a custom framework and I have run into a curious problem. Using the same Route:

$collection->add('article_edit', new Route('/articles/edit/{alias}', array(
    '_controller' => 'AppBundle:Article:edit'
)));

Using this Url Generator code

$url = $this->generateUrl('article_edit',array('alias' => 'test'));

Before login, the Url Generator produces

/articles/edit/test

And after login, it produces

http://localhost/testsite/articles/edit/test

Without anything being changed, what could be happening here since I want the same result consistently.

Thanks

Answer 1

I can see that "/articles/edit/test" and " http://localhost/testsite/articles/edit/test " are same url just with difference of site url in it.

if you use your "generateUrl" method as following it will generate always same url. It should generate " http://localhost/testsite/articles/edit/test " always

$url = $this->generateUrl('article_edit',array('alias' => 'test', UrlGeneratorInterface::ABSOLUTE_URL));

Also dont forget to use following class in namespace section

use Symfony\Component\Routing\Generator\UrlGeneratorInterface;

Try setting your host in app/config/services.yml

parameters:
    router.request_context.host: www.yourdomain.com
    router.request_context.scheme: http
    router.request_context.base_url: /your/path
