I get the error in the title when I try to run composer require "illuminate/html":"5.0.*" in my terminal (Git Bash) under my current project file path. Even if I type something like composer -v I get the same error.
I've even tried reinstalling composer and it installs fine but the commands still don't work.
In the PhpSTORM terminal, running the same commands gives this error: 'composer' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or bath file.
I have VirtualBox, Vagrant and Laravel all installed correctly with Composer (I know it's all good because my code is great and works fine when trying it live and what not)... unless I'm missing something here (Laravel noob).
Why is this happening?
If you installed composer outside your virtual box (in your host system) and you want to use it without ssh into your vagrant box:
Make sure you add composers directory to your PATH. Then close your current terminal and reload a new one. Closing the terminal is necessary to reload the PATH.
The error sh.exe": composer: command not found indicates that the composer is not found in the current folder or the PATH.
Found out why I was getting the error: forgot to ssh.
The fix was this: vagrant ssh in the terminal.

I am trying to install Laravel for first time. I installed it on my desktop with the following composer command
composer create-project laravel/laravel laravel-app
The command completed successfully without any error but with some messages like
symfony/var-dumper suggests installing ext-symfony_debug ()
symfony/translation suggests installing symfony/config ()
I now did chmod -R 777 larvel-app to make whole folder writable by everyone. I now started php server with following command
cd laravel-app
php artisan serve
and it gave following message
Laravel development server started on http://localhost:8000
When viewed from web browser in address http://localhost:8000, there is nothing, only blank page. When I browse this address, the server seems to quit.
I have following environment:
OSX Mavericks;
MAMP with php 5.4.10 and apache2;
following extensions in php.ini file
extension=imap.so
extension=yaz.so
extension=mcrypt.so
extension=gettext.so
extension=pgsql.so
extension=pdo_pgsql.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
;;;;;Following are added by me ;;;;no error when starting server
extension=openssl.so
extension=mbstring.so
When I run which php from command line, I get following.
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/bin/php
When I tried to run this in mamp ie localhost:8888, it gave 500 internal server error.
Please suggest me, where I might have made mistake.
As a OSX user i strongly recommend you to use Laravel Homestead to develop your applications.
http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/homestead
You only need to install:
Virtualbox
Vagrant
I have my projects in ~/code folder, so everytime i create a new project, i just:
Add project test domain to my local host file (my-project.app pointing to localhost 127.0.0.1)
ssh into the homestead virtualmachine (homestead ssh)
run built in serve command (serve my-project.app /path/to/project/public)
Voilà
The most common reason for this is that the web server process does not have write access to the storage folder and its subfolders.
Set the permissions on the storage folder so that the web server can create files.
You don't have to use php serve, mamp does that for you. Make sure you point your directory to public folder. You can also use custom domain for each of your projects.
Also for Mac there is laravel valet. Easy to get started with many php projects.
I think you should move your Laravel Application to
/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/
and then you can access it on
http://localhost:8888/laravel-app
I'm trying to install Laravel Homestead in order to be able to test my Laravel projects locally.
I'm following this tutorial: http://laravel.com/docs/4.2/homestead
In the "Installing Homestead" part I followed the second step "Manually Via Git (No Local PHP)",I don't have any PHP installed locally and can't use Composer. (Wasn't PHP supposed to be installed as part of Homestead?)
I got to this part:
Once you have installed the Homestead CLI tool, run the bash init.sh command to create the Homestead.yaml configuration file:
bash init.sh
In command prompt I tried to enter the following command:
bash init.sh
I got the following error:
'bash' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Then I tried to enter the same command in Git Bash, and I got the following error:
bash: init.sh: No such file or directory
When I tried to enter in Git Bash simply
init.sh
I got the following error:
sh.exe": init.sh: command not found
I ran into this problem well. You need to hop into your terminal (I am on Mac.)
Type into your console: cd ~/Homestead
and to make sure you are in your newly generated Homestead folder (you can always click Finder > your home directory > Homestead to confirm it's where it should be),
then while in terminal simply type ls -- if it lists all of the files like Vagrantfile, composer.lock and bash init.sh, you should be in.
Once you know you are in the correct Homestead folder, it is now at that point in which you run bash init.sh
After doing this it now says Homestead initialized!
.sh is a unix/linux script executable, that isn't recognized on Windows. There's a init.bat included in the package, but it isn't referenced in the tutorial.
Just run init.bat from the command line. It will copy the files to:
%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\.homestead
You need install Git Bash, and then run commands into Git Bash.
Try init.bat that worked for me
If the init.bat refused to work
Go to the Homestead folder.
C:/Users/Computer Name/Homestead
You will see init.bat: double click to run it.
Problem solved.
I found the answer you may be looking for. I was having the same problems with this. Just make sure at the end of bash init.sh you put a ;
So in the git bash cmd you will have this line
$ bash init.sh;
Just do it using sudo.
$sudo bash init.sh
I've never had a problem with either Symfony2 or Vagrant before this point and I'm absolutely lost as to what is happening.
Without any warning my environment died completely and will only produce the following error:
ContextErrorException: Warning:
file_get_contents(/Users/Paul/Sites/Project/htdocs/project-web/vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Bundle/TwigBundle/Resources/views/Exception/exception_full.html.twig):
failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/project-web/vendor/twig/twig/lib/Twig/Loader/Filesystem.php line 130
The reason this is strange is that Symfony is referring to my local file system...
/Users/Paul/Sites/Project/htdocs/project-web/vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Bundle/TwigBundle/Resources/views/Exception/exception_full.html.twig
....instead of the box environement which is running Ubuntu, then referring to the unix filesystem location of 'Filesystem.php'...
/var/www/project-web/vendor/twig/twig/lib/Twig/Loader/Filesystem.php
I cannot get past this screen. I have just created a brand new environment and packaged it as a its own box, then using that box I still get this error.
Can anyone help?
My first guess is you have run it locally first and the paths are in the cache. If so it should be fixed by running the following in your vagrant environment:
php app/console cache:clear
Add --env=prod if you are running the app.php rather then app_dev.php.
Always use the command line IN your vagrant box (via ssh), never cmd on the windows path.
vagrant up
vagrant ssh
... some auth ...
cd /your/project/path
php app/console ...
I'm using Homestead with Symfony 3.1.
I had to delete var/cache folder from the root of my project in the host machine.
rm -rf var/cache/ solved it.
Before, I tried out php app/console cache:clear with no results.
I'm getting an error saying:
failed to clone https://github.com/php-fig/log.git, git was not found, check that it is installed and in your PATH env.
'git' is not recognized as and internal or external command, operable program or batch file
when I try and run composer create-project laravel/laravel learning-laravel.
I installed the git GUI which also comes with a command line shell, but I don't know why its not recognising the command (I'm issuing the create-project command in the normal windows command line prompt).
I also tried running the command from the git shell, which worked, but when I tried php artisan serve it gave me an error saying CLI has stopped working.
Does anyone know how to fix the git error? I'd rather use the windows command shell instead of the git one as it can then go into my wamp/www file
You need to add the directory you installed git to to your PATH environment variable.
Right click on Computer.
Click Advanced System Settings
Click Environment Variables inside the Advanced Menu
Under System Variables, scroll to PATH
Add ;"C:\path\to\git\bin";"C:\path\to\git\cmd"
Test the git command in the command prompt to see if it worked. Git is usually located in Program Files or Program Files(x86).
There is an easier (but temporal) way to add a path variable in Windows.
Paste this in your command prompt:
SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Git\bin
This will work for the rest of the command prompt session. Don't forget installing Git before this.
You'll need to add git to your system PATH if you want to use it in regular command prompt.
Here's a guide on modifying your system path in Windows:
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm
you need to uninstall git and reinstall ( or update ) in the options you need to change from git bash only to allow git to be added to command line as well, also since it then adds it to your path you may or may not need to restart your computer
I was having some issues using git on Windows. I found this information only and it worked for me.

I am currently working with symfony2 and I want to launch to download the libraries I need. I know the command in linux is "$ ./composer.phar update --dev" however when I run this in windows it prompts whether I should open the file with the windows explorer or not. I currently have composer.phar installed on windows but I am having trouble launching it. How would I be able to update my symfony2 folder with the dependencies I need. Thank you.
In CMD:
php C:\ProgramData\ComposerSetup\bin\composer.phar self-update
The problem is that Windows don't know how to open .phar files. You need to execute them using php interpreter php composer.phar update and the php interpreter(php.exe) must be accessible on PATH.
You could use command php -v to check if your php is accessible from command line.
Go to C:\ProgramData\ComposerSetup\bin\composer.phar
In CMD write php composer.phar (update) or (self-update)
1: Open cmd
First go to your work directory like if you have wamp then c:/wamp/www.
Then enter composer if you can see list of composer command then its good.
Now type "composer self-update".
5: Next you can see the process.
This worked for me on my Centos server
sudo -u nginx php composer.phar update
