Any thoughts?

Are you sure that you are using adminitrator to execute the cmd?
You shouldnt use Administrator role to run composer commands.
But, you can try to run the next command, and execute the composer require again
chmod -R 777 F:\Documents\work\projects\x2/vendor/composer
I successfully created an example .travis.yml file and the build passes. However, it is a bit slow. The main cause is composer install and it takes up to 40 seconds.
Since my experience with Travis CI is 2 days old, I need someone with experience to tell me what is the better practise when it comes to using composer install in Travis environment? Under what block I should call it and what should be the command itself?
Note: I use Symfony projects so if there is something specific to this framework, please let me know.
I read some blog posts and went through example files in some open source projects and ended up confusing myself. Some use under before_script: and some install: etc. Also some use composer install, composer install --prefer-source --no-interaction --dev, travis_retry composer install --ignore-platform-reqs --no-interaction --prefer-source so on. My aim is to speed up the build time.
What's wrong with composer and your .travis.yml?
Composer update without PHP environment checking

There's no one right answer for which section the composer install belongs to IMO. Use what makes sense for you. I would put it in install.
Prefixing it with travis_retry is also a good idea if the command is prone to fail due to network issues. for example. It'll retry the same command a default number of 3 times. The command is only considered a failure if after all retry attempts the wrapped command still did not exit 0.
As for speeding up you build, I wouldn't bother for eliminating 40s from the build time. That said, you can have a look at caching the composer install directory. This would save a tarball of that dir after the builder finishes and try to get it from network storage at the beginning of the next build. That way only new.changed dependencies would be needed to install. Since that archive lives on network storage and not inside the container however, this might just not give you any actual speedup.

I have been trying to deploy my Symfony2 project in Openshift with 1 small gear. My plan was to execute composer update once I finish pushing my codes into the server. Unfortunately an error keeps telling me that there is not enough memory to execute the command.
So I thought of unignoring the bundles that I needed in the vendor folder by removing them from the .gitignore file but still it doesn't get included in the commit.
Composer is known to consume a lot of memory. You should build you're project (composer update, php app/console assetic:dump, ...) and then push it to the server. Take a look at Jenkins, it's great tool.
Anyway if you want to force tracking of ignored files you can use the git add -f command.
You should only update composer in dev, for the prod server use: composer install (you need to have composer.lock under version control)
This is common problem connected with insufficient memory on the server. The solution is to add swap partition, so that you have enough memory to complete the update.
free -m
/bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap.1 bs=1M count=1024 // 1GB, or
/bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap.1 bs=1M count=2048 // 2GB
/sbin/mkswap /var/swap.1
/sbin/swapon /var/swap.1
Once you have added the swap you may run the update command, and it will complete successfully
I have a Vagrant running Linux and I'm trying to install Symfony.

It happened once to me and it turns out that I was hitting composer's timeout.
You could take the following measures to gain some speed:
Increase composer process-timeout (default 300) (not really needed if the following settings will help you gain speed, but can't hurt)
Set dist as preferred install type.
Enable https protocol for github, which is faster.
~/.composer/config.json
{
"config": {
"process-timeout": 600,
"preferred-install": "dist",
"github-protocols": ["https"]
}
}
If you still have problems after that, you can also clear composer's cache:
rm -rf ~/.composer/cache
I was trying to update project dependencies (using composer update) during a Laravel Framework upgrade exercise in my local Homestead environment (having run vagrant ssh to login as the default "vagrant" user) and none of the previous answers in this thread made any difference to the...
Could not delete /home/vagrant/projects/projectname/vendor/kylekatarnls/update-helper/src/UpdateHelper
...error message I repeatedly encountered.
The only thing that worked for me was to include a composer option as follows:
composer update --no-plugins
Plugins are used to alter or extend the functionality of Composer. The above command disables all installed plugins. Unfortunately, I'm not clear as to why this command worked for me, as I certainly haven't written any plugins myself. All I can conclude is that there was an erroneous Composer plugin installed that was causing this issue.
TL;DR Switch to Docker. It is the industry standard.
I came across this issue and spent quite some time doing research. I've tried every possible option to fix it but none of them worked for me. For me, the bug occurred on GNU/Linux host with Vagrant and VirtualBox provider.
It turns out it's a VirtualBox bug related to the file system layer and race conditions when creating/deleting files. It occurs only for VirtualBox shared folders, not for regular ones. The sad part is that it seems like it's not going to be fixed any time soon.
Some guys reported that they were able to solve the problem using the following tricks:
Downgrading to VirtualBox version 6.0.4.
Using nfs or rsync instead of shared folders.
Patching composer to add some pauses after certain operations.
Disabling plugin usage with --no-plugins option.
But all of this seemed dirty to me. I personally was able to use a workaround suggested on GitHub which is to configure composer to install packages from sources. That's a simple and kind of clean trick which should not have significant negative side effects on your workflow. Try putting the following config into your ~/.config/composer/config.json. Or instead you can edit your composer.json accordingly depending on your needs. Keep in mind that composer.json will override your global config.
{
"config": {
"preferred-install": "source"
}
}
Just got the same issue.
I see the problem in accessing to some local files. In my case target directory was under "root" and I'm not the root user.
Solution
Change permissions/owner of your files/directory.
Redefine owner:
sudo chown myuser:myuser -R /path/to
Maybe there is some lack of permissions for group which you are in.
So, try to run:
sudo chmod g+rwX -R /path/to
Or maybe you may run your command with "sudo" if it works for you (not recommended). :)
P.S. Never use 777. It's not secure.
UPD1
Another thing, you may found out useful to solve the root of the cause, to wrap up your composer binary to run it always behalf a certain user.
$ cat /usr/local/bin/composer
#!/bin/bash
# run composer behalf www-data user
set -o pipefail
set -o errexit
set -o nounset
#set -o xtrace
[[ "${DEBUG:-}" = "true" ]] && set -o xtrace || true
composer_debug=$([[ 'true' != "${COMPOSER_DEBUG:-}" ]] || echo '-vvv' )
sudo -u www-data -- /usr/bin/composer ${composer_debug:-} $#
I had this problem when provisioning the machine, which was bootstrapped to run composer install. I simply exited the VM and ran composer install on the code on my host machine and it worked.
So, if you're facing this problem while running Composer inside the VM, just try running Composer from outside the VM.
Update: As pointed in the comments below, this can pose some problems with different versions of packages being installed owing to the difference in system configurations between the local and Vagrant environments, so exercise appropriate caution while trying this.
We're running into issues also. There are several people who seem to have this issue, a fix has not been provided. For more information you can look into github issues of vagrant-winnfsd.
for my case, I only used the NFS folders type instead of the shared folders and it works:
folders:
- map: ~/code/cs-cart-trial
to: /home/code/cs-cart-trial
type: "nfs"
Just run
sudo chmod -R 777 /folder/path
This will give you write access to the folder you are running composer in.
I know this is an old post but this works so I have to share it.
In my case I was trying composer update but I got
[RuntimeException]
Could not delete .../vendor/bin/php-parse:
Despite I'm using Laravel framework, this question was the first link in Google, so I decided to post an answer.
My solution was to grant ownership for vendor: sudo chown -R $USER:www-data vendor/ and
sudo chown -R $USER:www-data composer.json
Update: my host OS was Ubuntu 16.04.
Having the same issue for Cakephp 4.2.1
Error:
Could not delete /var/www/vendor/cakephp/plugin-installer/src:
Solution:
Based of https://stackoverflow.com/a/63139337/1110760
After trying out several options mentioned above, for me this was the easiest way to solve it.
composer install --prefer-source
The argument --no-plugins worked as well, sort of. It skipped some packages but my localhost seemed to work just fine. This is faster, but it's missing some.
On AWS I got this error while deploying Yii framework project there was this
/var/app/current/vendor/
folder i deleted everything inside it came back to my document root and ran composer update it fetched all the repos again.
In my case , by removing the plugin and re-create the box solve the issue.
For me it caused by composer's timeout. I checked my internet speed and found it dropped to 0.7M which is nearly unusable. After I reconnected the wifi and have my internet connection speed back to normal, the errors are gone.
This has something do to with the synchronization of the folders between host and guest OSes, the folder might be simply temporarily locked from your host machine.
The solution is simply to delete the offending .git folder from your host OS or reboot the machine and launch composer install again.
Ideally each OS has its own dependencies and different binaries, therefore you should isolate your /vendor folder out from the rsync/vagrant folder share, likewise you would do the same with /node_modules on a Nodejs project.
Another thing to check for, Composer needs to run in the context of a directory it has permissions to.
In my case I was trying to issue a create-project command from /var/www, aimed against /var/www/html. /var/www is owned by root, /var/www/html is owned by the same user I executed Composer as (www-data). I got the following error; Could not delete /var/www/html/:
Issued the same Composer command from within /var/www/html itself and it worked perfectly.
To me it helped to install a (new) version via command line from download homepage https://getcomposer.org/download/. I can exclude some file permissions as I was root with chmod +R 0777, though I had virtualbox mounted drive. Anyway since new version worked, would mean it was version, or running a new version via php phar, and the original bin belonged to root
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === '48e3236262b34d30969dca3c37281b3b4bbe3221bda826ac6a9a62d6444cdb0dcd0615698a5cbe587c3f0fe57a54d8f5') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
I have solved the problem by creating a mount :
In /home/vagrant create a folder named vendor
then apply command : mount --bind /home/vagrant/vendor /path/to/source/vendor
It's a bit unrelated with the question, but in my case with Docker. It was failing because Webpack was watching and it didn't allow other files to be deleted.
It worked when I turned off Webpack.
I had same problems trying composer install

Best hack i found was to replace the unlink commands with the one below. I am running ubuntu.
sudo nano +219 /usr/share/php/Composer/Util/Filesystem.php
exec("sudo rm -rf $path");
return true;
For Windows users
Wow, I can't believe how long it took me to realize this, and sadly it has happened multiple times, and I'm finally writing this note so that I and others can quickly recover next time.
Just use Windows Explorer to go delete the /vendor/whatever_project_name folder instead of trying to delete it from the Vagrant command line.
Then run composer update to reinstall the dependencies.
I have a little problem to setup Symfony 2 on Cloudcontrol,
I followed the instructions and installed a Symfony 2 framework, changed the document root and so on.
Now when I try to push the changes to server server, it loads the dependencies from the composer.json and then it failed with a message :
[RuntimeException]
Could not scan for classes inside "/srv/tmp/builddir/code/vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Component/HttpFoundation/Resources/stubs" which does not appear to be a file nor a folder
This file is a vendor package, loaded from composer.
I have the same effect with a default composer.json file from a sample project (SF2)
Localy it works very well!
Can some one give me a hint ?
Got same error after setting "minimum-stability":"dev" and running composer update.
for unknown reason symfony/symfony (dev-master ...) kept failing to download from source thus was being loaded from cache.
what worked for me was a mix of previous answers:
$ rm -rf vendor/symfony
$ composer clearcache
$ composer install
Sometimes I had to clean composer cache to remove strange errors, usually it's in
/home/user/.composer/cache
You can also try to update composer with
php composer.phar self-update
I hope it runs for you.
I had the exact same error in my development directory.
What fixed it was :
$ rm -rf vendor/symfony
$ php composer.phar install
It reinstalled symfony/symfony, symfony/icu, symfony/assetic-bundle, symfony/monolog-bundle and symfony/swiftmailer-bundle and now everything works !
