Hi,
If I use symfony from sandbox, I don't need to setup the web server, since the application is in the web/ root directory.
This is the desired situation that I want. If I want to go through the pear installation method, I can't put my application in the web/ root directory any more.
How could I tweak the pear installation so that it allows me to put my application in the web/ root directory, so I don't need to setup the virtual hosting?
Thanks
PS.
I searched before I posted, and only found this un-answered request:

I really don't like the VirtualHost thing. That is what pushed me away from this project to explore other projects such as Cake, but now I'm back since I didn't like it there.
Is there a simple way to start a new app in /www_root/myapp/ that would be accessed via http://localhost/myapp/ or ~user/public_html/myapp that would be accessed via http://localhost/~user/myapp/ instead?

Not true. Why do you say that? Most of the stuff in the VirtualHost container can be replicated in the root server, AFAIK.
To be honest it doesn't matter if you use the root server or have VirtualHost container(s) and no root server instead. The Apache docs specifically state that both are perfectly legitimate configurations. I've no idea why the previous poster claims not to like VirtualHost "things".

well, I should say, not fully working. You might have fixed it in just seconds without thinking too much of it, but if unfixed, the result looks terrible, I guess the CSS is missing, and the images too.

It's almost certainly to do with the /sf alias not working.

Thanks for the help. It turns out that I simply only need to do:
cd symfony_project
ln -s /usr/share/php/data/symfony/web/sf web
Since the symfony installation place might be different from system to system, is there any way that I can get this '/usr/share/php/data/symfony' reported by symfony somehow?
thx

Yes, a symlink will do it. The Alias tends to be recommended but both are equally good, to be honest.

I think so. Get the debug toolbar on screen (using your dev front controller, probably at http://localhost/frontend_dev.php) and click on vars & config > Settings. I think the path stuff is all in there.
