Why does this command not work?
When I run this command:
$ chmod 777 cache/ log/
I get this:
-bash: $: command not found
This is killing me. I'm trying to make my way through, what should be, a very basic and intuitive Symfony tutorial, and it's like pulling teeth. What am I doing wrong with the above shell command?
Thanks.

I figured it out!
The instructions that I was following necessitate being at a specific directory and I wasn't there when I attempt the chmod command. Once I positioned myself in the appropriate folder where the cache and log folders existed, I could run the command without a problem.
BTW: I'm desperately making my way through a Symfony tutorial and I'm confident I will have a bunch of questions. For those of you who are looking for some easy money / points, keep the Bruce-ster in your sights and there will be plenty of opportunities.
Thanks!

Thanks so much for your time!
Here's what I tried:
Last login: Mon Jul 21 06:57:02 on console
Bruce-Gusts-iMac:~ bruce$ chmod 777 cache/log/
chmod: cache/log/: No such file or directory
Bruce-Gusts-iMac:~ bruce$ which chmod
/bin/chmod
Bruce-Gusts-iMac:~ bruce$
You'll see the first command was a deployment of the first suggestion, which was to eliminate the "$" symbol prior to the command. After that, I ran the "which chmod" and got what you see above.
What do you think?
