Other solutions are to make the files owned by a group shared by apache and yourself, make the files owned by a group shared by a special user for apache and yourself, su to www-data (or whatever, also, not "su -" as such users normally don't have login shells) to work on the code, do a deployment type of thing instead of serving out of the directory you work in, have apache run as the user you edit the files as in the virtualhost for this file, use a lighter, meant-for-dev-use server in development that runs under your user. Etc. There's a myriad of ways to accomplish a working dev-setup, and they all have their ups and downs and potential for bikeshedding :) Actually, that last option might be worth looking into. I'm not aware of what's around for php, but adding a console job that fired up a webserver hosting your project on 8080 running as the current user might be a good idea (and i suppose it wouldn't have to be a php-based webserver, but that would be ideal...). I may take a shot at making something like that later on tonight, time willing. On a prod machine, I would guess that the console jobs would be run rarely if ever. Ideal setup for a prod machine has the same "well there's a whole lot of possible ways to go about things" ... issue, if you want to call it that. -- If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to security at symfony-project.com You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony developers" group.
