I have developed an application in symfony which will have to be made live in few days. On a shared hosting service provider like GoDaddy I will have to keep the whole framework in the public_html.
Certainly there are security issues but cant they be fixed in some way or other?
I realized that Symfony is simply excellent when it comes to dedicated hosting. For very security conscious person it is a simply No-No situation but in that case even shared hosting should be No-No for such applications.
The most annoying thing about symfony was that everything was under public_html. so the user could very easily read by yaml files. I could fix this using hotlink protection. Now thats certainly not fullproof but for my application it is okay.
