Question

I am setting up my first Silex project using Fabien’s skeleton on Github:
https://github.com/fabpot/Silex-Skeleton

For some reason I can’t create a vhost for this project, the silex project stays in a sub directory.

My directory structure looks like this:

/my/example.com/htdocs/myapp/
      ../src/app.php
      ../cache
      ../config
      ../templates
      ../vendor
      ../web/index.php 

I want to access my app through the URL :
http://example.com/myapp/hello/Fabien/

I have created a .htaccess file in htdocs/myapp

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   Options -MultiViews
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /myapp
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteRule ^ web/index.php [L]
</IfModule> 

Now I have urls like
http://example.com/myapp/index.php/hello/Fabien/

How can I get rid of the index.php?

You should change the RewriteBase directive to /myapp/web:

RewriteBase /myapp/web
