Symfony 404 errors

On my local machine, the symfony project I have created works perfectly.

I have installed symfony on my testing server and it is working fine. When I go to the URL in the browser I get the "Symfony Project Created" page. I ran the check_configuration.php and everything checks out.

The problem I am having is: I have created my database and uploaded the table data. I have uploaded the files from my local machine to the server with FTP. When I try to access the module I created, it throws a 404 Error:

Not Found

The requested URL /mymodule was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Here's some examples:

On my local machine using MAMP, I use the following URL that works fine:

http://localhost:8080/frontend_dev.php/mymodule

After I have uploaded everything, if I go to the testing server URL:

http://my.url.com:8090/

I get the "Project Success" page with the /sf images and styles.

BUT If I try 

http://my.url.com:8090/mymodule

I get the 404 error as if the page does not exist, which makes me thik smfony does not know about the frontend module.

Any Help?

Solution

  • You'll need to do two things:

    1) Ensure that mod_rewrite is enabled in Apache.

    2) Double-check the .htaccess file in the document root to make sure it is pointing to your app.php. Something along the lines of:

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ app.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
