How to remove “web/app_dev.php” from Symfony2 URLs?

Question

I just created my first Symfony2 project. But the \"/web/app_dev.php\" part in the URL annoys me. It should be possible to do this without Virtual hosts...

Answer 1

You would need .htaccess file in parent folder of web, however, I wouldn't suggest doing so. That folder, apart from web, contains complete source, binaries, vendors and much more therefore you would need to apply many rules just to allow web-access to web folder and disallow web-access to everything else.

So, it's doable, but I would definitely go for vhost solution...
