Symfony2 - 2.6 file uploads - symfony

Question

I'm having a problem with file uploads on 2.6, which worked fine on the previous versions. I can't figure out what the problem is, there is no error and when I dump the post object I see a file name there but there is no file in the images folder.
My images folder is in myproject/web/images.
Using SonataAdmin to upload the file and again no errors there.
Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong or what's changed?
Edit: After perusing through the folders I noticed it created another web/images folder in /var/www/html.
Any idea how correct this? My project folder is in /var/www/html/myproject.
Tried adding 2 more /../../ but got an error: Unable to create the "/var/www/html/myproject/src/AppBundle/Entity/../../../../../../web/images/" directory. And removed 2 /../../ and still nothing.
Calling the file in twig with the following:
{% for photo in photos %}
<a href="{{ asset(['images/', photo.image]|join) }}">
<img src="{{ asset(['images/', photo.image]|join) }}" width="400" height="600" alt=""/>
</a>
{% endfor %}
Post entity
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="file", type="string", length=255)

private $image;
public $file;
/**
* Set image
*
* #param string $image
* #return Post
*/
public function setImage($image)
{
$this->image = $image;
return $this;
}
/**
* Get image
*
* #return string
*/
public function getImage()
{
return $this->image;
}
public function getUploadDir()
{
return 'images/';
}
public function getUploadRootDir()
{
return __DIR__ . '/../../../../web/' . $this->getUploadDir();
}
public function getWebPath()
{
return null === $this->image ? null : $this->getUploadDir() . '/' . $this->image;
}
public function getAbsolutePath()
{
return null === $this->image ? null : $this->getUploadRootDir() . '/' . $this->image;
}
/**

* #ORM\PreUpdate()
*/
public function preUpload()
{
if (null !== $this->file) {
$this->image = uniqid() . '.' . $this->file->guessExtension();
}
}
/**
* #ORM\PostPersist()
* #ORM\PostUpdate()
*/
public function upload()
{
if (null === $this->file) {
return;
}
// If there is an error when moving the file, an exception will
// be automatically thrown by move(). This will properly prevent
// the entity from being persisted to the database on error
$this->file->move($this->getUploadRootDir(), $this->image);
$this->file = null;
}
/**
* #ORM\PostRemove()
*/
public function removeUpload()
{
if ($file = $this->getAbsolutePath()) {
unlink($file);
}
}

Answer 1

Your Entity Path is:
var/www/html/myproject/src/AppBundle/Entity/Post.php
and your getUploadRootDir method:
public function getUploadRootDir()
{
return __DIR__ . '/../../../../web/' . $this->getUploadDir();
}
Which will go back four times cause there are 4(../) which is taking you to out of your source directory.
use this to resolve this error:
public function getUploadRootDir()
{
return __DIR__ . '/../../../web/' . $this->getUploadDir();
}

Answer 2

Just Change your entity with this.
Instead of
public function getUploadDir()
{
return 'images/';
}
Replace This
public function getUploadDir()
{
return '/images';
}
