checkout symfony from svn into ~/symfony at the root of your home directory (not into public_html or httpdocs):
svn checkout http://svn.symfony-project.com/trunk ./symfony
create your new project directory
mkdir ~/mymyNewSite
create the database on the new host
Set up subdomain for new project in cPanel
set up the symfony environment settings in the following two files:
databases.yml, properties.ini
upload the symfony project into the new project directory
./symfony sync staging go
remove the default subdomain directory from public_html and create a new symbolic link to the symfony project directory
cd ~/public_html
mv myNewSite myNewSite.bkp
ln -s /home/stereodv/myNewSite/web myNewSite
populate the database with the data. look in data/sql/ for lib.model.schema.sql or generated-schema.sql
mysql -u myNewSite_dbuser -p myNewSite_dbname < data/sql/lib.model.schema.sql
remember to add any migrations found in data/migrate
Notes:
make sure you copy the contents of config/config.php to the server; often this file is excluded from rsync
