Question

I have set up Symfony in bitnami on Amazon EC2. Now I want to access web/config.php, but was told the file can only be run via localhost.

And I also tried to log on remote desktop of EC2, but failed. So now how can I ensure symfony is all good on server?

Answer 1

Open config.php and edit following code

if (!in_array(@$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], array(
    '127.0.0.1',
    '::1',
))) {
    header('HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden');
    exit('This script is only accessible from localhost.');
}

You can either add the IP Address oft the remote server or just comment out this piece of code. Consider the last advice is not recommended for security reasons.
