Could not open input file: composer.phar

[Chrysweel]

I have a problem!
I try create a project new symfony2.1. I did the following steps:

1º curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
2º sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
3º php composer.phar create-project symfony/framework-standard-edition var/www/myproject

My folder /usrl/local/bin has a 777 permit

I do in my folder project : php composer.phar

But I have this error: Could not open input file: composer.phar

In my http://localhost/myproject/web/config.php

I have three problems:
Vendor libraries are missing. Install composer following instructions from http://getcomposer.org/. Then run "php composer.phar install" to install them.
Set the "date.timezone" setting in php.ini* (like Europe/Paris).
Add "phar" to suhosin.executor.include.whitelist in php.ini*.

But php composer.phar install doesnt run.

Please help me, I have a project in symfony2.0.x and I want update to symfony2.1, but I do not know do it.

of course it doesn't work you're trying to interpret a script you just moved!

You shouldn't run the command n°2, or use "composer create-project ..." (assuming the directory you moved the script to is in your PATH)

[Chrysweel]

So I have to do in this folder all the commands with composer.phar .. ok

How can I solve the three problems ? And What do I have to do to update my project to symfony2.1 ?

thanks : )

@Chrysweel either use php composer.phar without moving the phar to /usr/local/bin, or use composer if you moved it as a global installation

Stof said it all I think. Closing the issue.

@zidorsml Are you sure that the composer.phar file is located in the same directory you are executing the command? Have you successfully download the Composer binary before?

thank you @xabbuh, i don't know if composer.phar file is located in the same directory, can you help me to verify and set it
