Symfony cannot find template on prod server

Question

Should be simple enough. Everything works in my local environment, but not on my prod server (neither prod nor dev environment). I get an error that the FOS template cannot be found:

Unable to find template "FOSUserBundle::layout.html.twig".

My code is simple:

{% extends "FOSUserBundle::layout.html.twig" %}

I'm going from my local Windows machine to a Linux box. I've read case sensitivity might be the culprit, but it doesn't seem like it.

The FOS bundle is in the normal place: vendor/friendsofsymfony/user-bundle/FOS/UserBundle.

I'm having trouble diagnosing - any ideas? Did things get screwed up when I FTPd? Permissions issues? What are the common gotchas? I'm desparate!

Update: A clue. I ran assetic:dump and got

[RuntimeException]
".../app/Resources/FOSUserBundle/views/layout.html.twig" resource is hidden by a 
resource from the "*******Bundle" derived bundle. Create a
".../app/Resources/*******Bundle/views/layout.html.twig" file to override the bundle 
resource.

This question seems relevant.

Another update: I was using getParent() in my own bundle to override the templates. I switched to the first method in the docs but now the templates in app/resources simply aren't having an effect. It's going straight to the default form template with a white background.

Any ideas?

Can you run the production environment on your Windows machine? — noetix, Apr 22 '13 at 05:48
Yes. I'm afraid they're out of sync somehow, with git stuff, cache stuff, who knows. I've checked all that, but still having a hard time. — Sam Selikoff, Apr 22 '13 at 05:49
Or it's a Linux thing, with route names (@ syntax), or upper/lower case, etc. — Sam Selikoff, Apr 22 '13 at 05:49
If its a stock standard FOSUserBundle install and all you're trying to do is extend its layout, then I doubt there would be an issue with case. Are you using `ApcClassLoader` in `app.php`? — noetix, Apr 22 '13 at 05:55
Please try loading the same page in using app_dev.php and try loading in production — Sethunath K M, Apr 22 '13 at 05:59
Have you tried clearing the cache? `app/console cache:clear --env=prod` — juanreyesv, Apr 22 '13 at 06:16
@juanreyesv I've done it manually (deleting the folder). When I run that command I get 'Class simplearray does not exist'. — Sam Selikoff, Apr 22 '13 at 13:12

It was a upper/lower case/namespacing thing. I thought my local files were in sync with remotes but they were not.

Just check your whole directory & all namespaces in the FOS bundle!

You are worth gold. Thanks a bunch! – bmeulmeester Apr 17 '15 at 12:23
Had "Views" instead of "views"... Worked in locale environment, but not on my server. Thanks a bunch :-) – Gingi Feb 16 '18 at 14:00

I also encountered the problem and "solved" it by renaming my layout.html.twig inside my bundle's Resources/views folder to bundle-layout.html.twig and adapting my templates accordingly.

I resolved the resource is hidden by a resource error by moving the template in the good bundle extension.

Specifically from app/Resources/FOSUSerBundle/views/ChangePassword
to src/Application/Sonata/UserBundle/Resources/views/ChangePassword

I confounded FOSUser & SonataUser.
