Answer 1

You locked down some of your third-party bundles to a certain tag/version.

"friendsofsymfony/user-bundle": "v1.3.0",

The v1.3.0 tag of this bundle only supports Symfony 2.1.*.

You will have to go through every single third-party bundle and make sure you are using the right tag/version.

The line above should look like

"friendsofsymfony/user-bundle": "v1.3.1",

You can see the requirements of the v1.3.1 tag in the composer.json of the bundle.

You can also use the dev-master tag but that can cause issues if you don't plan on upgrading Symfony regularly.
