For new SF versions:

By default, the Symfony Routing component requires that the parameters match the following regex path: [^/]+. This means that all characters are allowed except /.

You must explicitly allow / to be part of your parameter by specifying a more permissive regex path.

YAML:

_hello:
    path:     /hello/{username}
    defaults: { _controller: AppBundle:Demo:hello }
    requirements:
        username: .+

XML:

    
        AppBundle:Demo:hello
        .+
    

PHP:

use Symfony\Component\Routing\RouteCollection;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Route;

$collection = new RouteCollection();
$collection->add('_hello', new Route('/hello/{username}', array(
    '_controller' => 'AppBundle:Demo:hello',
), array(
    'username' => '.+',
)));

return $collection;

Annotations:

/**
 * @Route("/hello/{username}", name="_hello", requirements={"username"=".+"})
 */
public function helloAction($username)
{
    // ...
}
