Configure symfony not to consider subfolder as part of the route

I have an apache server and my projects are inside /var/www/html/

Inside there I created a new project using composer like composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton myproject.

Then inside my project I ran the command composer require symfony/apache-pack which added an .htaccess file inside public folder containing the default .htaccess of symfony.

When I accessed my server like http://192.168.0.2/myproject I got the folder list that apache serves if it doesn't find an index.php file because it accessed the default symfony folder in /var/www/html/myproject and not the public folder.

So inside the folder /var/www/html/myproject which is a symfony project I added the following .htaccess file.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /myproject/

    RewriteRule    ^$    public/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) public/$1    [L]
</IfModule>

No I when I visit http://192.168.0.2/myproject I get an error that No route found for "GET /myproject/" which means that symfony now considers /myproject as part of a route.

Is there a solution for this. I suggested solution that I got from symfony slack would be to have the project inside another folder and symlink only the public folder.

Something like:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 59 gmponos 9 19:26 myproject -> /home/gmponos/Projects/myproject/public/

This is a solution but I really need to have the whole project under /var/www/html/ and not symlink the public folder.

Also another solution according to the official documentation is editing the apache config and change the document root from /var/www/html/myproject to /var/www/html/myproject/public but I need the configuration to stay inside the project and not change the apache config.

Is there any solution?

Is there any solution? No Solution for what you are requesting :

  1. You must have the rights to configure Apache to adjust the document root to either :

    • /var/www/html/myproject,
    • or /var/www/html/myproject/public and set according access permissions in apache config file

  2. Putting whole code in code in /var/www/html directory, and give free remote access through Web (Apache) is very risky, for production environments.
