creating a Symfony project using composer

Question

I'm trying to get Symfony in my Mac, so I installed symfony and composer in order to start developing, but when I create the project I have some problems:

composer create-project symfony/skeleton cost_management

I tried many ways to install it, I saw the commands in their website, so I did it but still having some problems installing it. If someone knows what's wrong with it, or if I need something else, I'm hoping for your help. Thanks.

Which PHP version are you using?! If you're not using PHP 7.1, then you can't use Symfony 4 yet, nor can you use the new skeleton... Install the [Symfony instaler](https://symfony.com/doc/3.4/setup.html) and use it to make a new project with the command `symfony new my_project 3.4` — Preciel, Mar 13 '18 at 23:45
There was a bug checked in a few hours ago. https://github.com/symfony/recipes/pull/380 It is being worked on. Monitor the issue then try again. — Cerad, Mar 14 '18 at 00:09
I'm using php 7.1.14n I think there was a bug because I don't get the problem here. — Dev web, Mar 14 '18 at 07:50
@Preciel I can't use symfony without using composer [RuntimeException] The Symfony Installer is not compatible with Symfony 4.x or newer versions. Run this other command to install Symfony using Composer instead: composer create-project symfony/skeleton cost — Dev web, Mar 14 '18 at 08:18
In case anybody is wondering, the issue has been solved and create-project is now working again. — Cerad, Mar 14 '18 at 13:12

Please replace composer create-project symfony/skeleton cost_management with composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton cost_management

            **OR**

You could install and setup Symfony4 application on Ubuntu with PHP7.2 by these steps execute through temminal:

composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton cost_management
cd cost_management
php -S 127.0.0.1:8000 -t public
ctrl + c to exit server run composer install
sudo chmod 777 -R var/cache/ var/log/
now again php -S 127.0.0.1:8000 -t public
Now you can check on your browser by this http://localhost:8000/ or directly you can access without server run by http://localhost/project_directory/public/index.php

Note:- 1. By default symfony 4 is set to dev environment, but you could set your environment by setting $_SERVER['APP_ENV'] 2. If it's working proper then you will see a 404 error message and profiler in bottom because it's by default set to dev mode. 3. To see something you need to create your first controller by following documents Symfony 4 create your first page

Just add this:

use Symfony\Component\Config\Resource\FileResource;

to the top of your src/Kernel.php, it was missed for some reason.

After that, you can continue with composer install
