installing locally a symfony1 project from github


I'm new to symfony and discovered it's quite different from rails. There is a project on github (https://github.com/openpolis/openparlamento) that I am trying to set up locally.

when I go to my localhost/openparlamento-master/web/index.php the page gives routing errors obviously. When I click on the homepage link it goes to localhost, or when I click on contact goes to localhost/contact (which doesn't exist).

I tried going into apps/fe/config/routing.yml (fe is my application) and tried to make changes there, but it is not working. Is there a way to automatically change all routes? I'll be thankful for a source of documentation on how to change routes on an existing symfony1 project (I didn't find any). Thanks!


Solution

  • From the command line in root project directory try running (hopefully you are on unix or linux):

    sudo php symfony fix-perms

    and then

    php symfony cc

    Make sure that the /web folder is you web root. You will need to set up a local host that points to that directory.
