Symfony: command not found


I am trying working with symfony since past couple of months. Last night I did an auto remove to purge not needed repositories. After that I have not been able to create a new symfony project using the symfony command. When I run Symfony new SecurityDemo 2.8.1 in the terminal, I get the error

Symfony: command not found

I tried installing the Symfony Installer again as directed in the documentation http://symfony.com/doc/current/setup.html. I went to my root directory and followed the installation procedure as shown in the screenshot enter image description here

Still I get the same error.

All help is appreciated.

EDIT:

I am working with LAMP and am using PHP 5.6.

When I try to update the symfony Installer using symfony self-update I get the output

// Symfony Installer is already updated to the latest version (1.5.8).

Solution

  • If you're sure you installed the symfony command properly you have to call it with lowercase s and not Symfony.

    The correct command is:

    $ symfony new SecurityDemo 2.8.1
