I don’t know where to post about this problem : the page http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-tutorial-shared-hosting.html is missing.

The topic is interesting.

It wasn’t there at the time of release. Added recently and will be there with 2.0.1 release.

Shared Hosting Environment
==========================

Shared hosting environments are often quite limited about configuration and directory structure. Still in most cases you
can run Yii 2.0 on a shared hosting environment with a few adjustments.

## Deploying a basic project template

Since in a shared hosting environment there's typically only one webroot, use the basic project template if you can.
Refer to the [Installing Yii chapter](start-installation.md) and install the basic project template locally.
After you have the application working locally, we'll make some adjustments so it can be hosted on your shared hosting
server.

### Renaming webroot <span id="renaming-webroot"></span>

Connect to your shared host using FTP or by other means. You will probably see something like the following.
 
```

Thank you.

There’s the same problem with this page : http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-helper-security.html

I was looking for a doc explaing how to share Yii2 sources between several applications.

I was thinking about extracting yiisoft directory from /vendor and using symbolic links in each app pointing to it. Is it good ?

samdark · October 17, 2014, 7:50am

jpj, it’s better to use Composer and have a copy of framework for each app. Makes updating less surprising.

Security page isn’t ready yet.

Won’t it be longer to update all the apps ? I thought that it would have been faster using symlinks to one source folder.

I’ve never used composer so I don’t know what it can do. I can launch an update for several apps in one operation ?

samdark · October 17, 2014, 8:01am

No, you can’t update multiple non-related apps at once (you can have a batch script that does so though). Yes, it will take more time to update.

jpj · October 17, 2014, 8:10am

Ok. I don’t understand what problems could occur using symlinks pointing to 1 yiisoft folder that would be the only one updated manually.

samdark · October 17, 2014, 9:25am

Probably none but I can’t be sure. Never tried it.

jpj · October 17, 2014, 9:30am

I think I’ll try that to save time or maybe I’ll symlink to the vendor directory.
