Symfony4 routing inside a subfolder

Question

I have a symfony app in my /var/www/html/app/ and I\'d like to access it via host/app/ but I can\'t make it work.

I have a conf fil         


        

Answer 1

I managed to resolve the problem !!!

I'm not sure the config is "proper" though but it seems to work.

Here is my working app.conf file (in /etc/apache2/sties-enabled/app.conf)

Alias /app "/var/www/html/app/public"



    AllowOverride None
    Order Allow,Deny

    Allow from All

    

        Options -MultiViews
        RewriteEngine On

        RewriteRule (/public) - [L]

        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

    

The first RewriteRule is to prevent from internal Rewrite loop when I rewrite url like example.com/app/page-1 to example.com/app/public/index.php/page-1. As page-1 is not a directory or a file it will loop infinitely. So I assume as soon as I have a /public part, the rewrite worked and we stop the rewrite by doing nothing and end the rewrite with the [L] flag.

I'm not suire why I had to remove the public/ part in the "final" RewriteRule (RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]) though.

If someone have ideas to improve this config, feel free to leave comment.
