Symfony2 Composer Install - symfony

I am trying to install Symfony 2.1.3 (latest). I am running composer and installs everything okay. The only error that I get is:
Script Sensio\Bundle\DistributionBundle\Composer\ScriptHandler::clearCache
handling the post-install-cmd event terminated with an exception
[RuntimeException]
An error occurred when executing the "'cache:clear --no-warmup'" command.
It's being installed under www folder. I am running nginx and followed the composer approach. I read on internet that apache should be run manually not as a service, however I am using nginx instead. Does apache still have any bearing on it? I'm using debian squeeze.
Edit: As per AdrienBrault's suggestion the error was because the timezone was not set in the php.ini. Only with --verbose I could see the warning. Thanks guys.

Apache is not related - PHP is called via command line.
Most likely is the permission in the cache folder: did you check if the user that runs the composer update can actually write the cache folder?
Try to manually run rm -Rf app/cache/dev (for production environment replace dev with prod) and see if you get any permission error.
Also you will get this error if the default.timezone setting is not configured in php when running in CLI. To verify just run
php --info | grep timezone
and check that the setting date.timezone is correctly configured.
On the security side, setting 777 to the folder is not the optimal solution - if you have ACL enabled you could use that to correctly set up the permission for the cache and logs folder. Read more at the Symfony2 official installation page

I had this same issue for a while and after hours of face to brick wall pounding I realized... I have a .gitmodule in my project, and on initial checkout these submodules are NOT initialized and as such are not there for your composer to update, which results in the above error.
Make sure you run the following
git submodule update --init src/Acme/Sadness/Bundle
of course replace src/Acme/Sadness/Bundle with YOUR project namespace.
Hope this helps someone not go through the same pain I just did.

If you have vendor folder already I would remove it and install symfony 2.1.3 again via "composer.phar install". Problem might be coming from outdated version of composer

I had the same problem and I resolve in this way.
execute this on the console
and you should see something like this
$ locate php.ini
/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
/etc/php5/cli/php.ini
/etc/php5/fpm/php.ini
the first line is probably your php.ini that appear when you do a phpinfo();
the problem is that when you execute composer update this no check the same php.ini
in my case the second line
all my sites work fine but always I had problems not now
after edit the second file and put the same time zone that you set in the first one
run
$ sudo service apache2 reload
and now
$ composer update
I hope that this work for you like work for me

Symfony2 custom console command appears as “not defined” upon execution

Please help, I've tried everything;
The command works well on the development server, but not on live.
Before you mark it as duplicate:
The filename ends with Command.php
The Bundle is registered
The command is ContainerAware
The command is in the Bundle\Command directory and in the App\Bundle\Command namespace
I have tried:
clearing and warming up the cache on the server multiple times using the symfony console php console --env=preprod cache:clear and php console --env=preprod cache:warmup
listing available commands by calling the console without extra arguments php console --env=preprod
Is there any other way to force symfony to re-check available commands ?
For future reference:
The problem was that I connected to the remote host before deploy, and bash doesn't update symlink targets.
So the Command was not available in my current working directory.
A simple cd .., cd current solved it.

Symfony2 Sylius assets install

I am trying to install assets on my sylius project, and I am facing problem :
COMMAND: php app/console sylius:install:assets
ERROR AFTER EXECUTING COMMAND: This command terminated with a permission error
I found solution of a problem, before you guys try to install assets be sure to clear cache, but you might get into a trouble with memory, so edit your
app/console file and add ini_set('memory_limit','-1');
and after that run cache clear, and install assets and everything will be fine :)

Symfony 2 production env constant errors

I developed my Symfony 2.8 project locally on dev enviroment.
Than i needed to upload it to a server and run it on production.
I did all the steps:
1. Checked it out with git on the server
2. Ran composer install
3. Cleared cache, doctrine cache, installed the assets
4. Configured my database
Saying this ... I`m still getting problems like:
Internel server errors like
No route found for "GET ..
And for some reason it makes requests from time to time to app_dev.php - my ht access clearly states that directory index is app.php and etc
I get double template rendering - the same view is loaded two times - two menu section ... two content section
I am really frustrated, cause ive tried everything i know. Could someone help me, ill provide additional info if needed.
I need any suggestions, ideas and etc that could help me.

First, try to remove your cache manually and clean your logs :
rm -rf app/cache/* && rm app/logs/prod.log
Then, try to browse a route of your application.
If you still have an error, open your log using cat app/logs/prod.log and find the last error.
If it's a php error caused by a vendor, remove your /vendor directory and run composer update
If you are not able to fix your problem, add to your question the error log and code of the method called by your route that is not working.
As chalasr said, cleaning prod cache manually works after the app.php setup.
I think a command like :
php app/console cache:clear --env=prod --no-debug
should work too.

Error "could not delete" with Composer on Vagrant

I have a Vagrant running Linux and I'm trying to install Symfony.
After the command composer create-project symfony/framework-standard-edition ./ "2.5.*" I have the error :

It happened once to me and it turns out that I was hitting composer's timeout.
You could take the following measures to gain some speed:
Increase composer process-timeout (default 300) (not really needed if the following settings will help you gain speed, but can't hurt)
Set dist as preferred install type.
Enable https protocol for github, which is faster.
~/.composer/config.json
{
"config": {
"process-timeout": 600,
"preferred-install": "dist",
"github-protocols": ["https"]
}
}
If you still have problems after that, you can also clear composer's cache:
rm -rf ~/.composer/cache
I was trying to update project dependencies (using composer update) during a Laravel Framework upgrade exercise in my local Homestead environment (having run vagrant ssh to login as the default "vagrant" user) and none of the previous answers in this thread made any difference to the...
Could not delete /home/vagrant/projects/projectname/vendor/kylekatarnls/update-helper/src/UpdateHelper
...error message I repeatedly encountered.
The only thing that worked for me was to include a composer option as follows:
composer update --no-plugins
Plugins are used to alter or extend the functionality of Composer. The above command disables all installed plugins. Unfortunately, I'm not clear as to why this command worked for me, as I certainly haven't written any plugins myself. All I can conclude is that there was an erroneous Composer plugin installed that was causing this issue.
TL;DR Switch to Docker. It is the industry standard.
I came across this issue and spent quite some time doing research. I've tried every possible option to fix it but none of them worked for me. For me, the bug occurred on GNU/Linux host with Vagrant and VirtualBox provider.
It turns out it's a VirtualBox bug related to the file system layer and race conditions when creating/deleting files. It occurs only for VirtualBox shared folders, not for regular ones. The sad part is that it seems like it's not going to be fixed any time soon.
Some guys reported that they were able to solve the problem using the following tricks:
Downgrading to VirtualBox version 6.0.4.
Using nfs or rsync instead of shared folders.
Patching composer to add some pauses after certain operations.
Disabling plugin usage with --no-plugins option.
But all of this seemed dirty to me. I personally was able to use a workaround suggested on GitHub which is to configure composer to install packages from sources. That's a simple and kind of clean trick which should not have significant negative side effects on your workflow. Try putting the following config into your ~/.config/composer/config.json. Or instead you can edit your composer.json accordingly depending on your needs. Keep in mind that composer.json will override your global config.
{
"config": {
"preferred-install": "source"
}
}
Just got the same issue.
I see the problem in accessing to some local files. In my case target directory was under "root" and I'm not the root user.
Solution
Change permissions/owner of your files/directory.
Redefine owner:
sudo chown myuser:myuser -R /path/to
Maybe there is some lack of permissions for group which you are in.
So, try to run:
sudo chmod g+rwX -R /path/to
Or maybe you may run your command with "sudo" if it works for you (not recommended). :)
P.S. Never use 777. It's not secure.
UPD1
Another thing, you may found out useful to solve the root of the cause, to wrap up your composer binary to run it always behalf a certain user.
$ cat /usr/local/bin/composer
#!/bin/bash
# run composer behalf www-data user
set -o pipefail
set -o errexit
set -o nounset
#set -o xtrace
[[ "${DEBUG:-}" = "true" ]] && set -o xtrace || true
composer_debug=$([[ 'true' != "${COMPOSER_DEBUG:-}" ]] || echo '-vvv' )
sudo -u www-data -- /usr/bin/composer ${composer_debug:-} $#
I had this problem when provisioning the machine, which was bootstrapped to run composer install. I simply exited the VM and ran composer install on the code on my host machine and it worked.
So, if you're facing this problem while running Composer inside the VM, just try running Composer from outside the VM.
Update: As pointed in the comments below, this can pose some problems with different versions of packages being installed owing to the difference in system configurations between the local and Vagrant environments, so exercise appropriate caution while trying this.
We're running into issues also. There are several people who seem to have this issue, a fix has not been provided. For more information you can look into github issues of vagrant-winnfsd.
for my case, I only used the NFS folders type instead of the shared folders and it works:
folders:
- map: ~/code/cs-cart-trial
to: /home/code/cs-cart-trial
type: "nfs"
Just run
sudo chmod -R 777 /folder/path
This will give you write access to the folder you are running composer in.
I know this is an old post but this works so I have to share it.
In my case I was trying composer update but I got
[RuntimeException]
Could not delete .../vendor/bin/php-parse:
Despite I'm using Laravel framework, this question was the first link in Google, so I decided to post an answer.
My solution was to grant ownership for vendor: sudo chown -R $USER:www-data vendor/ and
sudo chown -R $USER:www-data composer.json
Update: my host OS was Ubuntu 16.04.
Having the same issue for Cakephp 4.2.1
Error:
Could not delete /var/www/vendor/cakephp/plugin-installer/src:
Solution:
Based of https://stackoverflow.com/a/63139337/1110760
After trying out several options mentioned above, for me this was the easiest way to solve it.
composer install --prefer-source
The argument --no-plugins worked as well, sort of. It skipped some packages but my localhost seemed to work just fine. This is faster, but it's missing some.
On AWS I got this error while deploying Yii framework project there was this
/var/app/current/vendor/
folder i deleted everything inside it came back to my document root and ran composer update it fetched all the repos again.
In my case , by removing the plugin and re-create the box solve the issue.
For me it caused by composer's timeout. I checked my internet speed and found it dropped to 0.7M which is nearly unusable. After I reconnected the wifi and have my internet connection speed back to normal, the errors are gone.
This has something do to with the synchronization of the folders between host and guest OSes, the folder might be simply temporarily locked from your host machine.
The solution is simply to delete the offending .git folder from your host OS or reboot the machine and launch composer install again.
Ideally each OS has its own dependencies and different binaries, therefore you should isolate your /vendor folder out from the rsync/vagrant folder share, likewise you would do the same with /node_modules on a Nodejs project.
Another thing to check for, Composer needs to run in the context of a directory it has permissions to.
In my case I was trying to issue a create-project command from /var/www, aimed against /var/www/html. /var/www is owned by root, /var/www/html is owned by the same user I executed Composer as (www-data). I got the following error; Could not delete /var/www/html/:
Issued the same Composer command from within /var/www/html itself and it worked perfectly.
To me it helped to install a (new) version via command line from download homepage https://getcomposer.org/download/. I can exclude some file permissions as I was root with chmod +R 0777, though I had virtualbox mounted drive. Anyway since new version worked, would mean it was version, or running a new version via php phar, and the original bin belonged to root
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === '48e3236262b34d30969dca3c37281b3b4bbe3221bda826ac6a9a62d6444cdb0dcd0615698a5cbe587c3f0fe57a54d8f5') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
I have solved the problem by creating a mount :
In /home/vagrant create a folder named vendor
then apply command : mount --bind /home/vagrant/vendor /path/to/source/vendor
It's a bit unrelated with the question, but in my case with Docker. It was failing because Webpack was watching and it didn't allow other files to be deleted.
It worked when I turned off Webpack.
I had same problems trying composer install
- Installing aws/aws-sdk-php (3.218.3): Extracting archive
Install of aws/aws-sdk-php failed
In Filesystem.php line 330:
Could not delete /home/vagrant/code/my-project/vendor/composer/cefa44c2/aws-aws-sdk-php-a1bd217/src:
What I did I comment it out
type: "nfs"
from my homestead.yaml
and make a fresh vagrant provision
I'm using Oracle Virtual box 6.1 on Windows 10.
Turn of Dropbox or other file sync
Best hack i found was to replace the unlink commands with the one below. I am running ubuntu.
sudo nano +219 /usr/share/php/Composer/Util/Filesystem.php
exec("sudo rm -rf $path");
return true;
For Windows users
Wow, I can't believe how long it took me to realize this, and sadly it has happened multiple times, and I'm finally writing this note so that I and others can quickly recover next time.
Just use Windows Explorer to go delete the /vendor/whatever_project_name folder instead of trying to delete it from the Vagrant command line.
Then run composer update to reinstall the dependencies.

How to rename a Symfony 2 installation folder correctly?

I install Symfony 2.3.0-DEV this way:
composer self-update
git clone https://github.com/symfony/symfony-standard test1
copy .\test1\app\config\parameters.yml .\test1\app\config\parameters.yml.dist
composer install
But, Every time I've had to rename (ie. to "test2") the project folder. My installation breaks and shows errors:
Warning: require_once(C:\xampp\htdocs\symfony-projects\test1\web/../app/bootstrap.php.cache): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\symfony-projects\test1\web\app_dev.php on line 19
Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'C:\xampp\htdocs\symfony-projects\test1\web/../app/bootstrap.php.cache' (include_path='.;\xampp\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp\htdocs\symfony-projects\test1\web\app_dev.php on line 19
I tried, deleting cache folders, deleting the bootstrap.cache.php file, and re-installing/updating vendors, including the autoloader, also with cache:warmup and cache:clear, changing permissions. And still nothing...
Finally solved it ! That's what I've done.
composer self-update
git clone https://github.com/symfony/symfony-standard test1
copy .\test1\app\config\parameters.yml .\test1\app\config\parameters.yml.dist
composer install
Loaded http://localhost/symfony-projects/test1/web/app_dev.php once.
Closed the browser (chrome), stopped xampp (apache/mysql), and the powershell
Deleted /app/cache/* and /app/bootstrap.php.cache file
Closed the IDE, Logoff my user session in Windows 8 (starting feeling paranoid)
Renamed the folder test1 to test2
Executed composer update command to call post-update-cmd scripts to be sure that bootstrap.php.cache is rebuild
Went to http://localhost/symfony-projects/test2/web/app_dev.php
And then works. Probably that issue was due to locked files...
#Touki Thanks, the APC thing was a good insight but not needed it ;)
this topic is quite old but I just had the same problem. The problem was: I installed symfony2 using command:
php composer.phar create-project symfony/framework-standard-edition myProject 2.1.x-dev
but I had the same fatal error. However, my solution was to go myProject directory and run command:
composer update
And that is all, project was rebuilded and file "bootstrap.php.cache" appeard :)
I hope this helps.
Next time, just restart your machine.
