Hi Alecs and everyone,
Thanks for your responses.
I'm deploying this to a Linux box running Apache. It's a reseller
account, so I don't think I can create virtual servers.
Alecs - the solution you wrote is the one I said was not possible in
my original message. That's because in my production account, my
public_html looks like this:
+public_html
+ subdomain1
+ addondomain1
+ addondomain2
As such, I can't create public_html as a symbolic link to {symfony}/
web.
I did find a solution to this though, which was to rearrange my
reseller account so one of my addon domains became my primary domain.
That way, I can just create my production website's domain as a
symbolic link to the symfony web directory.
What I was wondering though is if anyone has experience with using
symfony where the web directory is not at the top level of the
document root, eg: a situation like this:
+public_html
+ app1
+ app2 -> {symfony}/web
ie: maybe my domain: www.example.com has multiple applications, each
in subdirectories of public_html. In this case the symlink to the
symfony app is from app2. When I setup this structure, I found that
everything broke, because the document root in my symfony app is still
"/" which points to public_html, rather than public_html/app2. I was
able to get parts of the app to work, but all my image links were
broken and all the documentation I found on symfony only shows you how
to setup the .htaccess file when symfony is in the document root.
I'm a little surprised that I've seen no examples like this, because
it would be very useful where a symfony app is part of a portal of
various content belonging to a site.
