Every time I try to get working symfony2 on a virtualbox I get the same problem. Problem with app/cache and app/log/ folder permisions.

The problem seems to be the difference between the apache user and the php execution user and it's solution is documented here.

In my case, I can't get working with any of 3 possible solutions sf2 doc explains. And the best / easy solution I've found is to change apache's default user to be the same as php. To do it you just need to change this on /etc/apache2/apache2.conf :

# These need to be set in /etc/apache2/envvars User ${APACHE_RUN_USER} Group ${APACHE_RUN_GROUP}

  by this:

# These need to be set in /etc/apache2/envvars

User your_user

Group your_group

This way, everybody is accessing the files with the same user / group.

Maybe you should remove the contents on app/cache and app/log after this changes, and restart apache ;-)

Remember this is a valid solution just for your dev environments ;-)
