Hello people I have been stuck with a problem that plagued me for like 2 weeks and I don't know why. First I tought it was the symfony project I cloned from my partners repository but it has something to do with the php service I'm running it on. The console log shows this error:

[Tue Nov  1 15:16:57 2016] 127.0.0.1:7471 [200]: /frontend_dev.php

Besides that it says that it contains a lot of syntax errors.

I tried running the server on port 80 and It worked once. When I shut down te computer It says that another application is running on the port. Which makes sence,b but I would like to know why it worked once on port 80 and how to fix this problem because I was also looking around on the internet for answers, but nothing worked.

My enviroment:

  • Windows 10 with the ubuntu bash shell.
  • Symfony 1.4.20 propel
  • php 5.5.9
  • mysql 5.5.53

Installed packages:

  • Php5-cli
  • php5-common
  • php5-json
  • php5-mysql
  • php5-readline
  • php5-xsl
  • mysql-client
  • mysql-client-5.5
  • mysql-client-core-5.5
  • mysql-common
  • mysql-server
  • mysql-server-5.5
  • mysql-server-core-5.5

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc:

 127.0.0.1         localhost

/etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 MY-PC-NAME

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

I hope someone knows what could be wrong here.

  • Did you try to find out which process is listening on port 80? See [here](http://stackoverflow.com/a/23718720/4681654) – simon Nov 01 '16 at 15:03
  • @simon Thank you for sharing this. I tried killing the php5 proces running in the background on port 80 and now it works. There is only one problem. I'm using the command: "php -S localhost:80 -t web" but it doesn't seem to work on port 8000 which is the default port. – AutomataGeek Nov 01 '16 at 15:43
  • If you want to run PHP on port 8000 you need to use `php -S localhost:8000 -t web`. The documentation has more information about the [built-in web server](http://php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.webserver.php) – simon Nov 01 '16 at 15:56

I don't think this version of Symfony will run on the PHP version you have installed. That could be your first problem.

To check this download the configuration checker at

http://sf-to.org/1.4/check.php

and put in in your project root folder then run:

php check_configuration.php

For the port problem try to figure out which process might be using it.

Also consider using a newer version of Symfony for a new project.
