I am deploying my symfony 5 application. What do I forget to do?

Question

In development mode, when i execute this command symfony server:start -d The application works verry well. But when i writes the http://localhost/wafrica2/public/app_dev.php url, this error points out.

Warning: require(C:\xampp\htdocs\myproject\public/../app/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\myproject\public\app_dev.php on line 21

This is autoload.php file

It is the same error that arises when I upload to Infomaniak server after having set the file.env

this image shows the error as returned by the infomaniak server

APP_ENV=prod DATABASE_URL=...

The .htaccess file

 # Use the front controller as index file. It serves as a fallback solution when # every other rewrite/redirect fails (eg in an aliased environment without # mod_rewrite). Additionally, this reduces the matching process for the # start page (path "/") because otherwise Apache will apply the rewriting rules # to each configured DirectoryIndex file (eg index.php, index.html, index.pl). DirectoryIndex app.php # By default, Apache does not evaluate symbolic links if you did not enable this # feature in your server configuration. Uncomment the following line if you # install assets as symlinks or if you experience problems related to symlinks # when compiling LESS/Sass/CoffeScript assets. # Options FollowSymlinks # Disabling MultiViews prevents unwanted negotiation, eg "/app" should not resolve # to the front controller "/app.php" but be rewritten to "/app.php/app". <IfModule mod_negotiation.c> Options -MultiViews </IfModule> <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On # Determine the RewriteBase automatically and set it as environment variable. # If you are using Apache aliases to do mass virtual hosting or installed the # project in a subdirectory, the base path will be prepended to allow proper # resolution of the app.php file and to redirect to the correct URI. It will # work in environments without path prefix as well, providing a safe, one-size # fits all solution. But as you do not need it in this case, you can comment # the following 2 lines to eliminate the overhead. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}::$1 ^(/.+)/(.*)::\2$ RewriteRule ^(.*) - [E=BASE:%1] # Sets the HTTP_AUTHORIZATION header removed by apache RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization}. RewriteRule.* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}] # Redirect to URI without front controller to prevent duplicate content # (with and without `/app.php`). Only do this redirect on the initial # rewrite by Apache and not on subsequent cycles. Otherwise we would get an # endless redirect loop (request -> rewrite to front controller -> # redirect -> request ->...). # So in case you get a "too many redirects" error or you always get redirected # to the start page because your Apache does not expose the REDIRECT_STATUS # environment variable, you have 2 choices: # - disable this feature by commenting the following 2 lines or # - use Apache >= 2.3.9 and replace all L flags by END flags and remove the # following RewriteCond (best solution) RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$ RewriteRule ^app\.php(/(.*)|$) %{ENV:BASE}/$2 [R=301,L] # If the requested filename exists, simply serve it. # We only want to let Apache serve files and not directories. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f RewriteRule.? - [L] # Rewrite all other queries to the front controller. RewriteRule.? %{ENV:BASE}/app.php [L] </IfModule> <IfModule.mod_rewrite.c> <IfModule mod_alias,c> # When mod_rewrite is not available. we instruct a temporary redirect of # the start page to the front controller explicitly so that the website # and the generated links can still be used. RedirectMatch 302 ^/$ /app.php/ # RedirectTemp cannot be used instead </IfModule> </IfModule>

Is it possible to run a symfony 5 application without execute the symfony server:start command? I think, the response to this question can help me. Please, can you help me?

Answer 1

In Symfony >4, there is no app.php nor app_dev.php. The environnement is defined in the.env file by the APP_ENV = prod or APP_ENV=dev for example. If you have installed the web profiler bundle, you should have the debug toolbar while in dev. You may have to install the apache-pack bundle to make it work.

The web server root is in public folder. When you launch the server, the console should display the URL where your app is available.
