I am about to start using Yii framework for some small php projects (I am used to using the code igniter framework previously).
I want to know two things: a) Is it possible to move the /framework folder outside of the web root on linux (centOS in particular) for example: /var/framework_here
b) Could you point me to resources or articles about this and how to actually carry out the task?
I've moved the framework DIR outside of public_html (outside my web root) and tried modifying the paths in the demo projects but they don't function - so I guess I'm doing it wrong.
So far i've only been able to find info on sending the 'protected' directory within a yii project outside normal web access.
Perhaps I've mis-understood, but I thought doing what i want to do would greatly improve system security - that is actually the main reason i want to do this so again I'm open to suggestions/comments.
Thanks
