Strange symfony2 issue when updating vendors with composer - php

Question

I'm experiencing a rather strange problem with a Symfony site I'm working on. For some reason, when I write composer update or composer install I get the following result:
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Nothing to install or update
Generating autoload files
Updating the "app/config/parameters.yml" file
[Symfony\Component\Config\Exception\FileLoaderLoadException]
Cannot import resource "Z:\path\to\project\app/config\config.yml" from "Z:\path\to\project\app/config/config_dev.yml". (There is no ext

ked for namespace "imports", found "framework", "security", "twig", "mon
olog", "swiftmailer", "assetic", "doctrine", "sensio_framework_extra", "com

I've got no idea why it says it can't import the files in the imports section - they exist and are writable/readable. Can someone shed a light on what's happening here?

Answer 1

Some times crazy things happen to files where extra bytes get inserted at the start of the file. You can try recreating the file with the contents by hand. Copy pasting my include those bytes.
