Unable to load images into SF2 web directory without manual hard copy or symlink about jqueryui HOT 4 CLOSED

I'm using symfony2, too, but your issue is not related to jqueryui, you're missing a setting for assetic. You should take a look in the docs about cssrewrite.

If you still have issues with assetic, feel free to ask your question on the mailinglist of symfony.

Hi,
Sorry but the link you provided gives samples on how to load either multiple css or multiple js files (using the respective blocks) but only how to load one image at a time.
My issue is that the images cannot be accessed (I'm using cssrewrite) and it works fine for all images but the jqueryui ones !
The issue may come from where the jqueryui packages copy the files (componenets directory) which is not taken into account by the cssrewrite ?

Typically with the default location you have the images loaded from css file with something like this
background-image:url("images/ui-icons_72a7cf_256x240.png")
and when dumping the assets you get in web/css something that points to
background-image:url("../../images/ui-icons_ffffff_256x240.png")
which effectively points to nowhere because the directory images is not at this location (app/images) at all, it is located in app/components/jquery-ui/themes/{theme-name}/images !

@rrajkomar nothing is wrong with our css files, your issue is still assetic which do not reference the images correctly. Maybe it's possible to pass the correct path to assetic anyway...? I don't know and can't help you. You should ask your question on the mailinglist.

If you still think, there is something wrong with jquery-ui, you should post a bug report to the developers of jquery-ui, we do only provide the shim repository.

So far the only viable option I found was the one I copied in #47.
But there's one downside : it breaks the standard architecture of a symfony project.
Ideally if when using your package, we could specify a path for each type of component that might help avoiding this.
