I would suggest you to use Easyphp, it has phpreg.exe (or something like that) that will put php in %PATH% variable. It also allows you to create virtual hosts from browser, and easyphp will take care of everything else.

Instead of Sublime, use Phpstorm. It has by far the best Symfony2 plugin of all editors. If you are still learning S2, you will definatelly need autocompletion for forms, services, doctrine... Just amazing!

You need to add your PHP installation directory to the %PATH% environment variable, or work from the PHP installation directory.

To add it to path (The best approach - Edited for Windows 7):

  • Right-click on a My Computer icon
  • Click Properties
  • Click Advanced system settings from the left nav
  • Click Advanced tab
  • Click Environment Variables button
  • In the System Variables section, select Path (case-insensitive) and click Edit button
  • Add a semi-colon (;) to the end of the string, then add the full file system path of your PHP installation (e.g. C:\Program Files\PHP)
  • Keep clicking OK etc until all dialog boxes have disappeared
  • Close your command prompt and open it again
  • Sorted

Alternatively, you can run cd <PHP installation path> before you try and run you command, or call your script like <FULL file system path of php.exe> <path to script>

Then you open the CMD and you write the Symfony commands
