Reporting a Bug

Edit this page

Warning: You are browsing the documentation for Symfony 2.3, which is no longer maintained.

Read the updated version of this page for Symfony 6.1 (the current stable version).

Whenever you find a bug in Symfony, we kindly ask you to report it. It helps us make a better Symfony.

Caution

If you think you've found a security issue, please use the special procedure instead.

Before submitting a bug:

Double-check the official documentation to see if you're not misusing the framework;
Ask for assistance on Stack Overflow or on the #symfony IRC channel if you're not sure if your issue is really a bug.

If your problem definitely looks like a bug, report it using the official bug tracker and follow some basic rules:

Use the title field to clearly describe the issue;
Describe the steps needed to reproduce the bug with short code examples (providing a unit test that illustrates the bug is best);
If the bug you experienced affects more than one layer, providing a simple failing unit test may not be sufficient. In this case, please fork the Symfony Standard Edition and reproduce your issue on a new branch;
Give as much detail as possible about your environment (OS, PHP version, Symfony version, enabled extensions, ...);
(optional) Attach a patch.
