Unable to run composer install

Question

I'm trying to run composer install in my project but I have the following error

[Composer\Downloader\TransportException]
The "http://packagist.org/p/provider-2013$43e3f41fbe30a46245103451248f688a727f076a6e90636d19a69a156c17a416.json" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/1.1 400 Received invalid request from Client)

I have tried to run composer self-update and have this error

[Composer\Downloader\TransportException]
The "https://getcomposer.org/version" file could not be downloaded: Failed to enable crypto failed to open stream: operation failed

I'm running Ubuntu 15.04 with apache/php5.6.4/mysql behind a proxy.

I have tried downloading http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem and updated my php.ini file with the following

curl.cainfo=/etc/ssl/certs/cacert.pem
openssl.cafile=/etc/ssl/certs/cacert.pem
openssl.capath=/etc/ssl/certs

Running composer diagnose returns this

Checking composer.json: OK
Checking platform settings: OK
Checking git settings: OK
Checking http connectivity to packagist: FAIL
[Composer\Downloader\TransportException] The "http://packagist.org/packages.json" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/1.1 400 Received invalid request from Client)

Unable to assess the situation, maybe packagist.org is down (The "http://packagist.org/packages.json" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/1.1 400 Received invalid request from Client))
Checking HTTPS proxy support for request_fulluri: OK
Checking github.com rate limit: OK
Checking disk free space: OK
Checking composer version: FAIL
You are not running the latest version

And finally openssl_get_cert_locations() returns

• default_cert_file: /usr/lib/ssl/cert.pem
• default_cert_file_env: SSL_CERT_FILE
• default_cert_dir: /usr/lib/ssl/certs
• default_cert_dir_env: SSL_CERT_DIR
• default_private_dir: /usr/lib/ssl/private
• default_default_cert_area: /usr/lib/ssl
• ini_cafile: /etc/ssl/certs/cacert.pem
• ini_capath: /etc/ssl/certs

I'm at a total loss as to what's wrong and even more how I can debug this.

I hope there's someone out there can help me!

Answer 1

same with you. and i found the way to resolve it (for window 10) on internet. 1 - go to folder PATH\xampp\apache and run makecert.bat 2 - add this script to composer.json file

"repositories": [
        {
            "type": "composer",
            "url": "https://packagist.org"
        },
        {
            "packagist": false
        }
    ]
