Symfony CMF - security.context service is not enabled, therefore can't use FOSUserBundle, solutions?

Question

I am trying to create a new bundle inside a symfony CMF project that uses FOSUserBundle. I have experience with symfony2 but I am new to using the cmf.

Steps I followed:

1) I installed symfony CMF using below command.

php composer.phar create-project symfony-cmf/standard-edition myproject/

2) Then I created a typical Symfony2 bundle like. Acme\MasterBundle

3) Then I added below line to composer.json and updated vendors.

"friendsofsymfony/user-bundle": "1.3.*@stable"

4) However after I install can't use it. From the original error messages it is obvious that the missing service security.context is causing this issue. (Below is composer.josn file from the project)

Conclusion:

I tried running below commands and found that none of security.* services are listed.

app/console container:debug
app/console container:debug security.context

The error I from above last command is:

[Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Exception\InvalidArgumentException]
The service definition "security.context" does not exist.

I would like to know how to enable security.context inside symfony CMF project.

Please help!

You are missing configuration for the security. See the Symfony Standard edition on how to configure the security, or read the docs
