You should place a $ in front of every bash line

| it's all gone after running a relatively common command during development: | ||

The format on these 2 code blocks isn't quite right - it should look like this:
.. code-block:: bash

This is a real nice note Roman, but I think it's better-placed prominently in the Doctrine chapter. Can you find a good spot in that chapter and move it there? Thanks! |
|
@weaverryan I'm really not sure I like putting this note into doctrine chapter. It is mainly aimed at newcomers, who usually only read just a few documentation pages to get stuff up and running. |
|
@Inori You have a fair point, but Symfony itself completely database-agnostic and other ORMs (Propel?) might actually handle this. So I think the only place for it is the Doctrine chapter, which hopefully a newcomer at least starts reading if they're using Doctrine. |
|
@weaverryan ok, agreed :) Done! |
| $ app/console doctrine:database:create | ||

| There's no way to configure these defaults inside doctrine, as it tries to be | ||
| as agnostic as possible in terms of enviroment configuration, so only way around it |

Actually I was just referring to the missing "the" :) But hey, even better now!

Thanks Roman - really excellent note! |
One of the biggest "gotcha" moments symfony developers experience every now and then :D
