Comment 16 for bug 1016791

I was kind of tired by what i did by making a cache subdirectory where symfony was running yesterday. I've been able to clear the cache files from /var/www where i just made symfony cc from there.

I can't make ./symfony in the system root directory. Somehow, may be that's a lack of knowledge but when we talk about the root directory of a web based application, is it the /var/www/ directory, it may sound silly as a question but as long as it is unknown or undescribed, this can be confusing. So i assumed that the root directory of authpuppy is /var/www.

Anyway, after having the cache cleaned, i still have the problem to create new local user. I can start authpuppy by http://localhost as well as http://authpuppy.localhost. So what i did this morning after having my cache cleaned, i start authpuppy by http://localhost and i began my session by choosing network login (in french login réseau). I used "sign up for a free account". I made the new account, and when i click on sign me up i had the error 500.

So, i used : http://localhost/frontend_dev.php i made exactly the same thing that i wrote on the preceding lines of this message and it seem the error is trapped by an exception handler (i don't know how we called it in PHP) and i was able to made my new user without any error.

My first question is : Do i need to install symfony even if it is part of the directory structure of authpuppy. All i did on the very begining, was to make sure that i have all the instances of symfony running normally by making a php check_configuration.php as it is described in the documentation of authpuppy. I never installed it cause it was part of the directory struct of authpuppy.

My second question is : It seem that the httpd.conf have no effect. Cause there's a line in it described below :

       Alias /sf /var/www/authpuppy/lib/vendor/symfony/data/web/sf

Who does nothing. I never been able to use sf.

As we talk about some weeks ago, i made some changes in the /etc/host where i have the "127.0.1.1 authpuppy.localhost" line.

I know that my message is long but i couldn't make better making it shorter. There is so much to do. I'll made another Ubuntu 12.04 lts partition and running a new install of authpuppy. But the problems described before remain the sames.
