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.

The Composer installer script did not run correctly [exit code 259] and no output was returned.
enter image description here
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. Please help me
This error message means that the Composer installer script has encountered an error and has stopped running. The exit code 259 indicates that there was a problem with the script and it could not be completed.
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
Check for any error messages in the terminal or log files.
Ensure that all dependencies and requirements for the composer install are met.
Check if the environment variables are set correctly.
Try running the command with elevated privileges, i.e. using sudo.
If the error persists, try uninstalling and reinstalling Composer.
If the problem persists, you can also seek assistance from the Composer community or reach out to the vendor for support.
Short version
I'm getting this error, when I run php artisan serve and visit my home page:
ReflectionException (-1)
Class setEventDispatcher does not exist
Details
Laravel version: 5.6.39
Environment: local
OS: macOS Mojave 10.14.2
It started, when I got an error using npm (in another project), so I reinstalled Node (this way).
After doing that, then this project (in question) couldn't be started. I was getting this error, when running php artisan serve:
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libpng16.16.dylib with anything php related
Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/php
Reason: image not found
That error was resolved by updating and upgrading brew.
Then I was capable of starting the project (php artisan serve). But when I visit the home page, this error was shown:
ReflectionException (-1)
Class setEventDispatcher does not exist
If I follow the stack trace, then I can see that it was this line (from my homeController) that triggered the error:
if( ! Auth::check() ){
return view( 'pages.home' );
}
If I commented that out, then the same error occured from another place, where the Auth-module was being used.
Here's the stack trace:
Does anyone know how to resolve this? I can't find any promising results on Google, - and I have no idea why this happens... :-/
Addition1
I tried composer clear-cache and deleting the vendor-folder, and then doing a composer install and the problem still occured.
I also checked my Service Providers, as Marcus suggested, - but I don't really know what to look for in there. It all looks pretty regular (no fancy if-statements or anything).
Addition2
I realized, that I couldn't connect to my database using Sequel Pro. And it was because Brew had updated my MySQL-version from 5.5 to 8.0.
That was resolved by doing something along these lines (I did a bunch of stuff, so I might be missing a coulple of steps):
brew unlink mysql
brew install mysql#5.7
brew switch mysql 5.7.21
brew link mysql
and I could then verify the version with mysql --version. I also had some permission issues with that MySQL-version-change, but I'm emitting that, so this doesn't get too long.
Addition3
I tried disabling the Laravel Debugbar (by deleting it from composer.json, deleting composer.lock and vendor and then running composer install). And that fixed it!! ... But!
When I later tried to install Barryvdh's IDE Helper, then the exact same error came back!?
I performed these three steps, to install the IDE Helper (and re-introduce the error):
Run this command from the root of my directory: curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/barryvdh/5227822/raw/4be028a27c4ec782965bb8f2fdcb4c08c71a441d/_ide_helper.php -o _ide_helper.php
Add these lines to app/Provider/AppServiceProvider.php:
...
if ($this->app->environment() !== 'production') {
$this->app->register(\Barryvdh\LaravelIdeHelper\IdeHelperServiceProvider::class);
}
Run this command: composer require --dev barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper
So I'm back at this error:
ReflectionException (-1)
Class setEventDispatcher does not exist
... The stack trace is identical to the one shown previously (sprung from Container.php).
Tried every solution, none of them worked.
Finally, i realised that when trying to upgrade php to 7.3.3 it was infact a network error that caused the fail. Read the logs, tried again, restarted valet and tried again.
It works now.
Upgrading to 7.3.3 was the solution indeed.
Thank you!
So this is what usually fixes it for me
Reinstall composer dependencies by removing vendor folder and composer.lock. Then run composer clear-cache and then composer install (this is usually the problem)
Check that all service providers are imported correctly in app.php under directory config
Make sure that your service providers are not importing something that does not exist, for example if you register a service provider in production but is only installed as dev:
if (env('APP_DEBUG')) {
$app->register(Barryvdh\Debugbar\LumenServiceProvider::class);
}
If you use valet, I solved it running
valet restart and all works fine.
cheers!
The fix for me was to update PHP to 7.3.3 and then restart valet. Apparently this was a bug with php 7.3

Hope this helps
I got some idea... I've just run into this problem after reconfiguring my apache virtual host ports, so I restarted apache/httpd again, and the problem went away. Might it be related with the server environment?
I am facing the same issue in mac book pro. My system configuration is PHP 7.3, MySQl and I use SQL Pro. I have implemented all the above methods but nothing gets worked.
The issue is still a mystery for me but for temporary I have solved this issue using
artisan command as bellow.
php artisan serve
Its Allow me to run the project on http://localhost:8000
Hope this can help to solve this issue.
Try to restart PHP. When I reboot my Mac, then this happens. After restarting PHP everything starts to work.
sudo brew services restart nginx
I follow this guide for installation (on Mac)
https://hyperledger.github.io/composer/latest/installing/development-tools.html#appendix
and this one for developing a business network
https://hyperledger.github.io/composer/v0.16/tutorials/developer-tutorial
everything is fine, unless when I shutdown the computer, the composer seems to be uninstalled!! Mac's terminal does not recognize composer commands and I have to uninstall and install all them again! Can you give your idea about what the cause is? Thanks
Make sure You have install all composer package with -g and Not using nvm. If using nvm then make sure to be on same version every time you use composer command.
I'm having error during updating composer. It's a Laravel 4 project which I've downloaded from .... and first time I updated it, it was fine and got updated. but due some reason I deleted that replace it with a fresh copy of that project, but now when I started to update it, it gives me the following error:
[ErrorException]
copy(/home/username/.composer/cache/files/symfony/security-core/3a27d7b34ee6
2cb0fdf5ad970e7777912ef4722f.zip): failed to open stream: Permission denied
In between first and second update of this composer I did the following:
Tried to installed Vagrant and homestead, but failed due to some internet connection problem.
Updated Composer failed
Uninstalled vagrant and reinstall composer.
Reinstalled Composer
Updated composer (success)
Tried to install vagrant and homestead (success)
Update composer (failed)
uninstalled vagrant
Reinstalled Composer
Update Composer (failed)
The above mentioned error is getting occured again and again. I also tried 'composer clearcache' but doesn't worked. One thing which I noticed that it's been 16-19 months I'm using composer and never heard of such errors, but since I tried to install vagrant it created hurdles and errors for me.
I'm using Ubuntu 15.04
Updating Laravel 4.0 project
Updating Laravel 5
both project got updated before installing vagrant and homestead, but not now.
/var/www is under the group of 'www-data' and 'username' also the part of this group.
Any help plz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I found the solution. If you see the error then it would be clear that I don't had access to the:
"/home/username/.composer/cache/files/symfony/security-core/3a27d7b34ee62cb0fdf5ad970e7777912ef4722f.zip".
When I explore this directory, I found that its owner is 'root' or 'sudo'.
So I deleted the '.composer' directory and then started to update in my laravel project directory, every thing was fine and perfect! No problem at all!
sudo composer update
worked for me. it's a permission issue.
if it doesn't work then you can try to
delete '.composer' directory and composer update afterward.
I know its an old topic, but for mac users this might be useful, since commands in macOS are a little bit different from linux distros and I had a hard time figuring this out.
cd into ~ directory
sudo chmod -R 777 .composer
Done. Now you can install/update composer.
I had the same issue with a mac, Composer warn me about running commands with super user permissions, so I've just changed the owner of files directory in the repo /Users/MyUserName/.composer/cache like so:
sudo chown -R MyUserName files/
Hope this helps.
I just run sudo before an all when ok
sudo composer create-project laravel/laravel=5.3 /Users/peter/Sites/blog --prefer-dist
Anything I try to execute in Laravel, even minor files locally gives this message in composer:
[Symfony\Component\Process\Exception\RuntimeException]
The process has been signaled with signal "11".
Using OSX 10.7.5
Any help appreciated, as always.
For example :
composer update
typed in terminal retrieves the error message above
Make sure to check your composer cache folder has the right permissions for all files and folders.
If you ever ran composer as sudo or root then these cache folders could have the wrong root permissions.
Look at all the files and folders inside:
ll ~/.composer/cache/
Make sure you have proper permissions to write files in app/storage directory. And you can always use the following method of installation.
cd /your/app/directory
git clone https://github.com/laravel/laravel.git .
composer install
I got this error due to circular dependency on AppServiceProvider (when 2 services depend on each other). As the error does say much it took me a loooong time figure it out :/
Try:
Reinstall or upgrade PHP (Cli)
Make sure your .composer directory permission
This error message from laravel artisan is caused by Composer command error, you can try the same way from using command like:
composer dump-autoload -o
It should also cause error relating from aristan optimize command which be trigger from post-update-cmd" in composer.json.
In my case, the error is segment fault via Cygwin PHP so that I change to use XAMPP PHP to run it and it worked.
Try to run thin command
composer dump-autoload
I eventually solved this by employing a freelancer who was excellent and very knowledgeable.
First needed to update OSX with Maverick (free) - (I had to change my hard drive to do this!)
Then needed to download xcode
Composer should then function, you may need a new installation of laravel
Hope that helps someone!
