Symfony Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I store my sessions variables?
If you get the following error:
failed: Read-only file system (30) in /app/app/cache/dev/classes.php line 420
that's because Symfony is trying to write into: /var/lib/php5/ which
is read-only.
A workaround is to mount a sessions folder into Platform.sh and write sessions in that folder.
Simply edit your .platform.app.yaml and add a mounts there:
mounts:
...
"/app/sessions": "shared:files/sessions"
...
Then, add this line at the top of your app_dev.php:
ini_set('session.save_path', __DIR__.'/../app/sessions' );

Why does my newly cloned Symfony install throw errors?
You may encounter the WSOD (white screen of death) when you first clone a new Symfony2 project from your platform. This is likely because of missing dependencies.
You will need to install composer first and then run the following command:
cd my_project_name/
composer install
Why do I get permission denied on a deploy hook?
If you get the following error during a deploy hook:
Launching hook 'app/console cache:clear'.
/bin/dash: 1: app/console: Permission denied
This means that you might have committed the executable file (in this case app/console) without the execute bit set.
Run this to fix the problem:
chmod a+x app/console
git add app/console
git commit -m "Fix the console script execute permission."
