I want to share my Symfony 4 apache vhost config

The short story with Symfony 4 virtual host setup and probably outdated

i we just started to learn Symfony and were surprised with not found on just a fresh Apache setup environment.
I followed the tutorials and everything was “Ok” till the moment with routes. There were no problems with the index page, with the index.html.twig too.
But what a surprise with the “rewrited” urls. I got many 404 “Not found” pages until the moment I found a good example of a Apache.conf virtual host. This link: How To Deploy a Symfony Application to Production on Ubuntu 14.04

But i learned Symfony 4, so i had to change the app.php to index.php (default file at the moment) and added: ServerName my-test.vio (virtual host) on top. You can change it with your test server name. And don’t forget to edit your /etc/hosts file.

BTW you can’t use anymore *.dev extension for setup Apache vhosts. Try something like .test, .vhost. Modern is .local

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName tut-crud.vio
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/tut-crud/public"
<Directory /var/www/html/tut-crud/public>
AllowOverride None
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from All

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
</Directory>

# uncomment the following lines if you install assets as symlinks
# or run into problems when compiling LESS/Sass/CoffeScript assets
# <Directory /var/www/project>
# Options FollowSymlinks
# </Directory>

ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/symfony_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/symfony_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
