Error Installing via Composer

[PV-Patrick]

The install on this isn't working as of late, here is the error I am receiving after trying to install via composer. Any idea on what the cause could be? Thank you!

Updating dependencies (including require-dev)

• Installing omnipay/common (v2.3.0)
  Downloading: connection...Failed to download omnipay/common from dist: The "
  https://api.github.com/repos/omnipay/common/zipball/f7d50ce82f3528e7402500d87223
  91ebb69070b8" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found)
  Now trying to download from source

• Installing omnipay/common (v2.3.0)
  Cloning f7d50ce82f3528e7402500d8722391ebb69070b8

I believe this is because the links were changed for github.

It explicitly says git was not found, check that it is installed and in your PATH env in that error message. If you don't have git installed, Composer can't fall back to it if/when it has problems getting the ZIP file from GitHub (happens sometimes when GH hasn't created one yet, or when it doesn't have one for the specific commit Composer is looking for). This isn't a bug with Composer or laravel-omnipay.

Either way, if your problem is resolved, go ahead and close this issue. :)

I encountered this issue. What is the fix for this?

I'm not quite sure - you'd need to post that on omnipay as an issue.

@kyogenex - Did it successfully install omnipay/targetpay via git in the next few lines?

The error shown here simply means it couldn't find the ZIP file on GitHub's web servers, which itself probably just means they (GitHub, not Omnipay) haven't created the ZIP file yet. That's one of the reasons Composer falls back to a git clone if the ZIP download fails. Check that and let us know.

Thanks for the immediate response. I opened the composer.lock file in the project and found some of the links there are not anymore updated, from "omnipay/targetpay" is now "thephpleague/omnipay-targetpay" so with other plugins such as stripe, pin, etc.

Ah. A composer update will catch most of those, especially if you have omnipay/omnipay in your composer.json...
