Create folder in symfony root that is not controlled by symfony

I want to create http://localhost/Symfony/temp/.

In temp will be a basic index.html and some images. If I create the folder right now and put the index.html file in /temp/ I get a 404.

How do I get a normal response from http://localhost/Symfony/temp/index.html?

Here's the solution I eventually came up with.

All I did was create a .htaccess file in /temp/ and inserted:

allow from all

Since I was getting a 404 error and all the other symfony folders had a .htaccess with

deny from all

I reversed engineered an answer.

Hope this helps someone else.

Requests going to temp/ are being caught by Symfony's default .htaccess. You'll have to add following:

# allow access to temp
RewriteRule ^temp.* - [QSA,L]

If you want it to work even with app_dev.php just change it to ^[app_dev.php/]*temp.*.

But I'm more interested why do you want to do that in root directory and not in static files directory (eg. web/static/temp). You wouldn't need to mess around with .htaccess and you'd be able to link to such images with asset(...).
