Error Packaging into a Phar file an entire Slim Application - php

Question

I have a Slim Application with the following directory structure:
app/
vendor/
www/
config.php
In app/ I have the relevant files of the project, in vendor/ the dependencies managed by composer and in www/ the files accesible by the web server.
So I am thinking to create a Phar file along the lines of:
<?php
$full_path = '/home/.../forms/';
$package_name = 'www/package.phar';
try {
$phar = new Phar($full_path . $package_name,
FilesystemIterator::CURRENT_AS_FILEINFO | FilesystemIterator::KEY_AS_FILENAME, $full_path . $package_name);
$phar->startBuffering();
$phar->addFile($full_path . 'www/index.php');
$phar->addFile($full_path . 'www/bootstrap.php');
$phar->addFile($full_path . 'www/session_start.php');
// Grab config
$phar->addFile($full_path . 'config.php');
$phar->buildFromIterator(new RecursiveIteratorIterator (new RecursiveDirectoryIterator('../app', FilesystemIterator::SKIP_DOTS)),'../app');
$phar->buildFromIterator(new RecursiveIteratorIterator (new RecursiveDirectoryIterator('../vendor', FilesystemIterator::SKIP_DOTS)),'../vendor');
$phar->setDefaultStub('bootstrap.php', 'bootstrap.php');
$phar->stopBuffering();
echo "Phar created.";
} catch (Exception $e) {
// handle errors here
echo $e->getMessage();
}
So I create that way the phar and then I have:
deploy.php
<?php
require_once 'phar://package.phar/bootstrap.php';
$app->run();
But when accesing /deploy.php I am getting:
[Fri May 15 20:07:02 2015] [error] [client 10.0.2.2] PHP Warning:
require_once(phar://package.phar/bootstrap.php) [function.require-once]: failed to

"/vagrant/www/package.phar", invalid alias in
/vagrant/www/deploy.php on line 3 [Fri May 15 20:07:02 2015] [error]

(include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in
/vagrant/www/deploy.php on line 3
Do you think I should be addressing it like this?
Thanks

EDIT:
"Creating the phar in a shared folder of a Vagrant box caused that problem. Once I changed "output" property to a location outside the shared folder the error went away."

You should check your php.ini:
phar.require_hash = Off
Or sign your Phar with setSignatureAlgorithm()
Or with Phing:
<pharpackage ... signature="sha512"> ...
