Answer 1

Application configuration file reside in: project_name/config/web.php
if (YII_ENV_DEV) {
$config['bootstrap'][] = 'gii';
$config['modules']['gii'] = [
'class'=>'yii\gii\Module',
'allowedIPs'=>['127.0.0.1','192.168.1.*'],
];

You will find a file web.php which is in in the config folder located at your root app folder, the file will contain something like the following:
$params = require __DIR__ . '/params.php';
$db = require __DIR__ . '/db.php';
$config = [
'id' => 'basic',
'name' => 'My Cool App',//If this line exists change it to your new app name otherwise add it.
'basePath' => dirname(__DIR__),
'bootstrap' => ['log'],
'aliases' => [
'#bower' => '#vendor/bower-asset',
'#npm' => '#vendor/npm-asset',
],
'components' => [
'request' => [
// !!! insert a secret key in the following (if it is empty) - this is required by cookie validation
'cookieValidationKey' => '_4wmrZYaMY7joBAFHrXKpEIFvs9m9S_I',
],
'cache' => [
'class' => 'yii\caching\FileCache',
],
'user' => [
'identityClass' => 'app\models\User',
'enableAutoLogin' => true,
],
'errorHandler' => [
'errorAction' => 'site/error',
],
'mailer' => [
'class' => 'yii\swiftmailer\Mailer',
// send all mails to a file by default. You have to set
// 'useFileTransport' to false and configure a transport
// for the mailer to send real emails.
'useFileTransport' => true,
],
'log' => [
'traceLevel' => YII_DEBUG ? 3 : 0,
'targets' => [
[
'class' => 'yii\log\FileTarget',
'levels' => ['error', 'warning'],
],
],
],
'db' => $db,
'urlManager' => [
'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
'showScriptName' => false,
'rules' => [
],
],
],
'params' => $params,
];
if(YII_ENV_DEV) {
// configuration adjustments for 'dev' environment
$config['bootstrap'][] = 'debug';
$config['modules']['debug'] = [
'class' => 'yii\debug\Module',
// uncomment the following to add your IP if you are not connecting from localhost.
//'allowedIPs' => ['127.0.0.1', '::1'],
];
$config['bootstrap'][] = 'gii';
$config['modules']['gii'] = [
'class' => 'yii\gii\Module',
// uncomment the following to add your IP if you are not connecting from localhost.
//'allowedIPs' => ['127.0.0.1', '::1'],
];
}
return $config;
Notice I've added a line: 'name' => 'My Cool App',
Hope this helps.
