Environement

• Windows 7
• WAMP server
  • PHP 5.3.13
  • Apache 2.2.12
  • MySQL 5.5.24
• Laravel 4.1

I installed laravel, trying to run the URL

http://localhost/laravel/public 

autoload.php

define('LARAVEL_START', microtime(true));
require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';

if (file_exists($compiled = __DIR__.'/compiled.php')){
    require $compiled;
}

Illuminate\Support\ClassLoader::register();

if (is_dir($workbench = __DIR__.'/../workbench')){
    Illuminate\Workbench\Starter::start($workbench);
}

I am facing the following errors:

Warning: require(C:\wamp\www\laravel\bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\wamp\www\laravel\bootstrap\autoload.php on line 17

and

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'C:\wamp\www\laravel\bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.;C:\php\pear') in C:\wamp\www\laravel\bootstrap\autoload.php on line 17

Answer 1

Go to the current Project folder

C:\wamp\www\laravelProjectFolder>

and type composer install in command prompt and press ENTER key.

composer install

Then the vendor directory will be downloaded in the current project of laravel. Now refresh the screen.
