I am trying to include 

<link href="{{ asset('css/mystyle.css') }}"
      rel="stylesheet"/>

in my twig file and render it. But it gives me Uncaught PHP Exception Twig_Error_Runtime:

"An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Asset manifest file "/../public/build/manifest.json" does not exist.")

It does work when i use 

link href="css/mystyle.css"
          rel="stylesheet"/>

. Following is my controller:

    <?php

namespace App\Controller;

use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;

class WelcomeController extends AbstractController
{
    /**
     * @Route("/", name="welcome")
     */
    public function index()
    {
        return $this->render('welcome/index.html.twig');
    }
}

Following is my twig template:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
    <meta name="description" content="">
    <meta name="author" content="">

    <title>Let's Explore Symfony 4</title>

    <!-- Bootstrap core CSS -->
    <link rel="stylesheet"
          href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-beta.3/css/bootstrap.min.css"
          integrity="sha384-Zug+QiDoJOrZ5t4lssLdxGhVrurbmBWopoEl+M6BdEfwnCJZtKxi1KgxUyJq13dy"
          crossorigin="anonymous">

    <link href="{{ asset('css/mystyle.css') }}"
          rel="stylesheet"/>

</head>

<body>
<header>
    <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-sm navbar-dark bg-dark">
        <div class="container">

            <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Home</a>

            <div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
                <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
                    <li class="nav-item">
                        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Hello Page</a>
                    </li>
                </ul>
            </div>
        </div>

    </nav>
</header>

  • Did you execute bin/console asset:install before? – Łukasz Jakubek Jul 18 '18 at 04:59
  • All solutions below did not solve my problem. Any other suggestions? – Ham Dong Kyun Jul 22 '18 at 02:43
  • The answer from Sarath Kumar should help. As the error points out, the `manifest.json` doesn't exist. It can be automatically created once the assets are compiled. Eventually jsut the command `yarn encore dev` can resolve the problem. – cezar Oct 11 '18 at 09:26
  • You're assets are managed by webpack-encore so you'll just have to update your code. Remove the asset(...) method and expose it's content. Webpack should handle your assets for you. Update your code from this `` to this ` ` – sylvery Feb 17 '20 at 04:27

Execute the below commands:

yarn add --dev @symfony/webpack-encore

yarn add webpack-notifier --dev

yarn encore dev

It will generate the manifest.json file

    This is the right answer. For me it was enough to run `yarn install` and `yarn encore dev` after installing the Webpack Encore with `composer`. The official [documentation](https://symfony.com/doc/current/frontend/encore/simple-example.html) is very good and contains everything. – cezar Oct 11 '18 at 09:24

I have resolved this problem by not using json_manifest_path: ~

comment out the json_manifest_path by adding '#' in front of it and add '~' after 'assets:'

framework:
    assets: ~
        #json_manifest_path: '%kernel.project_dir%/public/build/manifest.json'

yarn encore dev-server --hot creates the manifest.json file

manifest.json is new in Symfony 3.3.

So, you should have this lines in your config file : 

# app/config/config.yml
framework:
    # ...
    assets:
        json_manifest_path: '%kernel.root_dir%/../web/build/manifest.json'

If manifest.json isn't exists, you should create it, like this :

{ "css/app.css": "build/css/mystyle.b916426ea1d10021f3f17ce8031f93c2.css", "...": "..." }

Remember that the question is tagged Symfony4!

I have the same issue to add logo in navbar, favicon…

In Symfony4, there are no more app directory, so no app/config/config.yml ! In Symfony4, web directory doesn't exist anymore but there are new directory public

As @Bijaya wrote, just specify href or src address in public

In my case, I have my logo: myProjectName/public/logo_mom.png

and in my controller, I have:

/**
 * @Route("/", name="home")
 */
public function home() {
    return $this->render('blog/home.html.twig', [
        'title' => "Bienvenue",
        'logo_path' => "logo_mom.png",
        'logo_alt' => "logo alt description",
    ]);
}

and in my home.html.twig:

{% block body %}
    <h1>{{ title }}</h1>
    <img src={{ logo_path }} alt={{ logo_alt}}>

and in my template/base.html.twig:

<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico" />

So for me who discover Symfony4 without previous Symfony version knowledge, it is nice that doesn't required asset function or any other configuration!
