Installing symfony 2.0 - progress so far...

I'm trying out the main php frameworks - started with Zend but it was far too complex for me - so tried Cogeigniter and Cakephp - both are great for my needs.

Symfony is my next evaluation but the quick tour seems to be incomplete
http://symfony.com/doc/2.0/quick_tour/the_big_picture.html

Sandbox is obsolete, so I downloaded symfony 2.0, extracted it into your /var/www/ directory, then renamed the Symfony folder to sandbox.

check.php should be config.php
http://localhost/sandbox/web/config.php

Install sqlite in Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install php5-sqlite

Edit the php.ini file for the timezone
gksudo gedit /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

Install APC
sudo apt-get install php-apc

Restart apache
sudo apachectl -k graceful

Not sure where the HelloBundle is...

Will leave this one for bit, testing out Yii now... Although django looks like the best option it means learning another language python.
