How to set up access to Symfony2 application via web browser?

Question

I have a Linux virtual box, built using Vagrant. I am working on an application built using Symfony2 and wish to use PHP's built in server to host the application. I have got the PHP server running successfully using the command: php bin/console server:start. This tells me:

 [OK] Web server listening on http://127.0.0.1:8000

I've specified the following in the Vagrantfile:

config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.56.109

I want to access the application via the browser on my host machine which is running on Windows 7.

How can I achieve this?

do you have ping your vagrant ip on your host OS ?

The default IP for the built-in web server is 127.0.0.1. In order for it to be visible outside your vagrant machine, you need to bind it to 0.0.0.0:

php bin/console server:start 0.0.0.0

Then you access http://192.168.56.109:8000 and it should work correctly.
