Configure your local Webserver ============================== You need to configure a virtual host for your webserver in order to run a clean Sulu instance. If you've already done so, skip this section. .. note:: It is a good decision to create a virtual host for each of your Sulu projects. They are separated by domain and you'll got full control on what you expose. Here is an example for Apache and Nginx. Apache 2.2 ---------- In your virtual hosts file you should configure something like: .. code-block:: apache DocumentRoot "/var/www/sulu.lo/web" ServerName sulu.lo Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all SetEnv SYMFONY_ENV dev ExpiresActive On ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 month" ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month" ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month" ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 month" ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 1 month" ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 1 month" ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 month" SetOutputFilter DEFLATE SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:exe|t?gz|zip|bz2|sit|rar)$ no-gzip dont-vary SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.pdf$ no-gzip dont-vary BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html Nginx ----- The Nginx configuration could look something like. .. code-block:: nginx server { listen 8081; server_name sulu.lo; root /var/www/sulu.lo/web; error_log /var/log/nginx/sulu.lo.error.log; access_log /var/log/nginx/sulu.lo.at.access.log; # strip app.php/ prefix if it is present rewrite ^/app\.php/?(.*)$ /$1 permanent; location /admin { index admin.php; try_files $uri @rewriteadmin; } location @rewriteadmin { rewrite ^(.*)$ /admin.php/$1 last; } location / { index website.php; try_files $uri @rewritewebsite; } # expire location ~* \.(?:ico|css|js|gif|jpe?g|png)$ { try_files $uri /website.php/$1; access_log off; expires 30d; add_header Pragma public; add_header Cache-Control "public"; } location @rewritewebsite { rewrite ^(.*)$ /website.php/$1 last; } # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server from upstream phpfcgi location ~ ^/(website|admin|app|app_dev|config)\.php(/|$) { include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock; fastcgi_buffers 16 16k; fastcgi_buffer_size 32k; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param SYMFONY_ENV dev; fastcgi_param HTTPS off; } } .. warning:: Be sure to also configure your local host-file, if running Sulu locally. MAMP Pro -------- In general you should configure your vHost like the `Apache 2.2`_ paragraph above describes it. If you want to enable the dev-environment (*including the debug toolbar*) you have to be sure that the vHost environment variable (``SetEnv SYMFONY_ENV dev``) is set properly and you configured a DEV-domain within your `webspace.xml `_. .. figure:: ../../img/sulu-mamp-pro-screen.jpg :align: center Now, your Sulu instance is ready.
