My symfony's version does not want to update, when I do a symfony -v, this message appears:
"Binary replacement failed, rename /usr/local/bin/symfony /usr/local/bin/__symfony__bak: permission denied. Rollback and continue".
I manually tried to rename:
sudo mv /usr/local/bin/symfony /usr/local/bin/__symfony__ (two dashes before and after the "symfony") ,
or sudo mv /usr/local/bin/symfony /usr/local/bin/__symfony
But it does not work,
what should I actually do? Thanks for your help
What I did was...
Give all permissions to folder:
chmod a+rwx /usr/local/bin
Then went to the folder and changed the name of the symfony file to "__symfony__bak:" without quotations.
Then wrote a command that triggered the update installation. In my case:
symfony server:start
This message popped up:
bash: /usr/local/bin/symfony: No such file or directory
Then changed the name of the file back to "symfony" without quotations.
Then wrote the same command again.
symfony server:start
In this case the installation was successful and no error message popped up.
And it worked! I hope it works for you as well if you didn't fix it already.
My Solution
I had the same issue with
symfony check:requirements
Simple use sudo-command and problem was solved
sudo symfony check:requirements
