Server setup on Win7 fails with symfony test

Asked by Wynand Jooste

I've followed the Getting Started guide for Windows and at the point where you get to run php symfony -V the problems start:

I get this error : "CLI has stopped working"

How do I resolve this ?

I managed to fix this by replacing the symfony file with one from symfony 1.4

I had to do the same thing, grab the symfony file from lib/vendor/symfony and place it into the root directory in order for symfony to function right

Wow so glad you guys were able to fix the problem. Now how about telling the rest us exactly what you did.

@Wynand - I downloaded Symfony Framework v1.4.17 but then which symfony file copied over to which directory? In the whole authpuppy installation there are 7 files labeled "symfony".

@ K N - Which "root" are you referring to? The system root, the authpuppy "root", the symfony "root" perhaps? I tried copying /lib/vendor/symphony into various places but none of those fixed the problem.

I don't like making unnecessary changes (and possibly breaking an installation) trying to figure out how others successfully fixed a problem.

Robin,

I think I figured out exactly what these guys might have done to fix the problem. Go to the following sub-directory:

\authpuppy\lib\vendor\symfony\data\bin

...find the file labeled "symfony" and copy it to the following directory:

\authpuppy

...overwriting the existing file in there. Now if I type "php symfony -V" then I can get back a version number, so apparently the existing "symphony" file in \authpuppy is corrupt.

@Chris
 Sorry, I didn't think about the ambiguity when I said root. But, YES that's how I did it.
