Unable to download and install Laravel 5 with composer. Error: HTTP request failed

Question

I can’t download the lavarvel installer using composer 1.2.0 (latest version) Received error: Could not open stream: HTTP request failed! I googled and could not find an answer to fix this for the problem.

If possible, try running this command composer global require "laravel/installer"to see if it works? I think the link to packaglist is no longer valid, but I'm not sure.

Answer 4

I believe your problem is that the config.json file for Composer has "packagist": false "inside the file. Try opening the file and change it to: true"

Or run

cd ~ / .composer / vendor / bin

Then

global composer requires "laravel / installer"
