I've successfully deployed my Symfony 2 App to Heroku but now, when I'm trying to access it, I receive the following 403 error:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
This is the log from Heroku:

It seems that Symfony (or Heroku?) is trying to serve the directory /app/ but I think this is not correct, as from the logs:
2015-07-29T14:31:41.828428+00:00 app[web.1]: [Wed Jul 29 14:31:41.827438 2015] [autoindex:error] [pid 104:tid 140466989270784] [client 10.100.0.139:16096] AH01276: Cannot serve directory /app/: No matching DirectoryIndex (index.php,index.html,index.htm) found, and server-generated directory index forbidden by Options directive
Following the tutorial on the Symfony Documentation about how to deploy to Heroku, I've created my .procfile and into I've put:
web: bin/heroku-php-apache2 web/
I've also removed the DemoBundle, and now my root URL is configured in the DefaultController in this way:
<?php
// \AppBundle\Controller\DefaultController.php
namespace AppBundle\Controller;
use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Route;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;
class DefaultController extends Controller
{
/**
* @Route("/", name="Homepage")
*/
public function indexAction()
{
return $this->render('default/index.html.twig');
}
}
I think, in the end, there are some problems with my .htaccess, that is the one shipped with Symfony Standard Edition:
# Use the front controller as index file. It serves as a fallback solution when
# every other rewrite/redirect fails (e.g. in an aliased environment without
# mod_rewrite). Additionally, this reduces the matching process for the
# start page (path "/") because otherwise Apache will apply the rewriting rules
# to each configured DirectoryIndex file (e.g. index.php, index.html, index.pl).
DirectoryIndex app.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# Determine the RewriteBase automatically and set it as environment variable.
# If you are using Apache aliases to do mass virtual hosting or installed the
# project in a subdirectory, the base path will be prepended to allow proper
# resolution of the app.php file and to redirect to the correct URI. It will
# work in environments without path prefix as well, providing a safe, one-size
# fits all solution. But as you do not need it in this case, you can comment
# the following 2 lines to eliminate the overhead.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}::$1 ^(/.+)/(.*)::\2$
RewriteRule ^(.*) - [E=BASE:%1]
# Sets the HTTP_AUTHORIZATION header removed by apache
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
# Redirect to URI without front controller to prevent duplicate content
# (with and without `/app.php`). Only do this redirect on the initial
# rewrite by Apache and not on subsequent cycles. Otherwise we would get an
# endless redirect loop (request -> rewrite to front controller ->
# redirect -> request -> ...).
# So in case you get a "too many redirects" error or you always get redirected
# to the start page because your Apache does not expose the REDIRECT_STATUS
# environment variable, you have 2 choices:
# - disable this feature by commenting the following 2 lines or
# - use Apache >= 2.3.9 and replace all L flags by END flags and remove the
# following RewriteCond (best solution)
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^app\.php(/(.*)|$) %{ENV:BASE}/$2 [R=301,L]
# If the requested filename exists, simply serve it.
# We only want to let Apache serve files and not directories.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule .? - [L]
# Rewrite all other queries to the front controller.
RewriteRule .? %{ENV:BASE}/app.php [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_alias.c>
# When mod_rewrite is not available, we instruct a temporary redirect of
# the start page to the front controller explicitly so that the website
# and the generated links can still be used.
RedirectMatch 302 ^/$ /app.php/
# RedirectTemp cannot be used instead
</IfModule>
</IfModule>
Another part of my App could be the cause of this issue: security.yml, that currently is this:
# you can read more about security in the related section of the documentation
# http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/security.html
security:

# with these settings you can restrict or allow access for different parts

access_control:
#- { path: ^/login, roles: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY, requires_channel: https }

- { path: ^/register, role: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY }
- { path: ^/resetting, role: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY }
But, accessing http:// my-app.herokuapp.com/login (that seems to be "open to the world"), I receive anyway a beautiful 404 error:
Not Found
The requested URL /login was not found on this server.
So, which could be the problem? Which setting is preventing me from accessing my Symfony App on Heroku?
