I tried hard to install composer from install via cmd and even the GUI now. I have uninstalled my xampp many times to install composer and even I have also installed xampp version 5 but the result is still the same or the error remains, I have also turned off the antivirus and various others.

Composer will only execute as root, will not execute as common user

Composer has worked fine without incident. I recently upgraded my Mac (Mojave) to PHP 7.2.12 using homebrew.
Now I'm unable to run composer. It simply hangs and does nothing, yet if I run it as sudo it runs fine.
I've already validated:
Composer lives in my /usr/local/bin folder and that folder is in the $PATH
Composer's permissions are 0755
I've checked the ~/.composer folder and it is owned by the user with proper permissions
I've tried removing it and re-installing, yet I experience the same hang as soon as I go to run php composer-setup.php
Any help or suggestions would be great.
While debugging my application I realized that when I ran the composer manager that it had a debug break in it that was being cause by xdebug in phpStorm.
So future note to anyone who encounters a similar issue, make sure your debugger is disabled when you run composer.

error occurred on running composer playground

I had installed my business network and then successfully started it. Then I opened my composer playground from the command line. After opening it is showing the below message what should I do?
This looks like you have installed composer-playground as root or using sudo or su.
The composer install instructions state that you should not use su/sudo.
There is additional information about installing composer in the Knowledge wiki, but if you are having permissions problems trying to install without root/su/sudo please see this link from the npm site.

Laravel Installer method

Normally I do install Laravel 5.1 by following this command regarding to documentation:
composer create-project laravel/laravel --prefer-dist
It works fine.
But I read in the documentation under "Via Laravel Installer" also it is possible to install via Laravel Installer, which is much faster than installing via Composer:
laravel new blog
But to use this method I need to run following command once:
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
When I do run it I get following errors many times
Deprecation Notice: Composer\Package\Version\VersionParser::parseLinks
is deprecated. Use \Composer\Package\Loader\ArrayLoader::parseLinks()
instead in
phar://C:/ProgramData/Composer/bin/composer.phar/src/Composer/Package/Version/VersionParser.php:226
after many line of same error ./composer.json has been updated appears and it continues with the same line of errors, it ends with following
Loading composer repositories with package information Updating
dependencies (including require-dev) Nothing to install or update
Generating autoload files
What is wrong with it? Any idea or solution.
My environment: Windows 10, GitBash and cmder console.
Update of composer, I did ran composer self-update also
Snapshot of console
EDIT:
Note, I can confirm after solving the issue that the installation via Laravel Installer method is faster than composer.
The Composer Assets Plugin you've installed locally is using a deprecated method of Composer. The plugin is already fixed, so run composer global update to get the latest versions with the bug fix. After it, you should be able to run the command succesfully.
If this doesn't work (as you might get the same error running the previous command), try removing the global vendor directory. When running any global Composer command, it outputs something like "Changed current directory to XXX". Remove the XXX/vendor directory and then try running the command.
In addition to #WouterJ answer.
Worst case if the steps provided by #WouterJ did not work, you could manage to uninstall and reinstall composer for windows.
When done, run composer global update to be sure to get latest updates, if there was.
Then run composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1" and it should works.
Remember to update your windows environment path C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin

Composer - It is downloading packages but not installing

I am trying to install one of my on going work (github-repository) into my server. I successfully downloaded my work into my server using Git. This work is a laravel based work.
After I did basic composer configurations, I tried to execute the command
composer install -vvv
It seems that, it downloading and cacheing packages but not installing them. After downloading and cacheing, the process get KILLED. I cant trace what is the exact problem here ?
Is anyone face this issue before ? If anyone know why composer behave like this,then please let me know.
