Symfony "No route found for "GET /check.php" fresh install

Question

I've just installed Symfony 2.7.

I've started my app from the command line with:

$ php app/console server:run

I installed XAMPP to run PHP.

The following pictures show my localhost:8000/config.php and localhost:8000 pages.

Config ! Main page !

EXACT SOLUTION:

_blog:
    path:       /
    defaults:  { _controller: AppBundle:Default:index }

Where:

• path points to localhost:8000

• defults: executes the indexAction method in the file "blog\src\AppBundle\Controller\DefaultController.php" (the file was in my project's file system by default, so for a different controller, replace this file to to your own)

Answer 1

A fresh install of symfony does not have any routes. In your bundle you'll need to define the route for /blog.

The file at /app/config/routing.yml should look something like this.

my_bundle:
    resource: "@MyBundle/Resources/config/routing.yml"

This will ensure the routes you setup in your bundles config are included.

So in /src/MyBundle/Resources/config/routing.yml you should have something like

my_blog:
    path: /blog
    defaults:
        _controller: MyBundle:Blog:index

Running php app/console router:debug in your command line will also show you your available routes.

Don't forget to flush your cache too php app/console cache:clear --env=prod or php app/console cache:clear --env=dev for the dev environment.
