Symfony - Installing assetic

votes

I have used composer to install bootstrap css and jquery to the vendor directory and I am trying to install assetic using the following page for guidance:

Symfony Assetic Guidance

I have done the first part of the instruction using composer and assetic and kris wallsmith are installed in the vendor directory but when I try to edit the AppKernel file to do the next step and register assetic it complains it cannot find the class:

The type Symfony\Bundle\AsseticBundle\AsseticBundle cannot be resolved

new Symfony\Bundle\AsseticBundle\AsseticBundle(),

I am very new to php and symfony but decided I would rewrite a spring site in it but I am not getting very far... as the instructions are so simple I cannot really see what could be causing the problem.

Can anyone help me?

Which version of Symfony do you use?

On Symfony 3 this works perfectly, if you are using < Symfony 3 you dont have to install AsseticBundle via composer manually, it is in basic symfony bundles.
