Cannot use composer to add the project

[cristianciofu]

I tried to get the project using composer and have this error:

Updating dependencies (including require-dev)

• Installing codeguy/upload (1.3.1)
  Downloading: connection...
  Could not fetch http://nodeload.github.com/codeguy/Upload/zip/1.3.1, enter your GitHub > credentials to access private repos

  To revoke access to this token you can visit https://github.com/settings/applications

And after I add my GitHub credentials I get this error:

[Composer\Downloader\TransportException]
The "https://api.github.com/authorizations" file could not be downloaded: U
nable to find the wrapper "https" - did you forget to enable it when you co
nfigured PHP?

Any idea why?

I tried this from 2 different locations and I have the same issue... Importing other repositories with composer works perfectly so... I really don't get it why for your repo it give me this error.

Thanks

Works totally fine for me. Must be something specific to you. Seems like a permissions issue or something.

[cristianciofu]

The thing is that I tried it on 2 machines and got the same message.

Post your composer.json, and also try running "composer self-update"

[cristianciofu]

{
"require": {
"twig/twig": "1.13.@dev",
"desarrolla2/cache": "dev-master",
"infinityweb/k-logger": "dev-master",
"codeguy/upload": ""
}
}

did the self-update and still nothing

[scottrobertson]

Try and run

git clone git://github.com/codeguy/Upload.git

just to test something

Sounds like GitHub may have been down for a bit. Or, you may need to update Composer so that it does not reference the nodeload.* subdomain... I think GitHub was going to change that endpoint for downloads.

@scottymeuk

$ git clone git://github.com/codeguy/Upload.git
Cloning into 'Upload'...
fatal: unable to connect to github.com:
github.com[0: 204.232.175.90]: errno=No such file or directory

but if I do it like this:

$ git clone http://github.com/codeguy/Upload.git
Cloning into 'Upload'...

it's working... any ideas?

[scottrobertson]

Seems like an issue with your local machine. What OS are you using?

[cristianciofu]

Windows XP (and on the other machine on which I have tested this -> Windows 7)

[scottrobertson]

And what program are you using?

[cristianciofu]

Cygwin (+git and composer individually installed)

[scottrobertson]

How very odd :s

I am really not sure but it does seem like a local issue somehow.

I tried again now on my home PC (so no weird firewall rules) and got this error :

Windows 7 + Cygwin

I am really not sure, but all i know is that it works for me, on Windows, Mac and Ubuntu.

I haven't been able to duplicate this on my end. Not sure what to tell you. Maybe @Seldaek might have some ideas?
