Hi @karandatwani92

I think that is my case, and can you help me to solve that?

"backpack/crud": "^6.4",
"backpack/editable-columns": "^3.0",
"backpack/permissionmanager": "^7.0",
"backpack/pro": "^2.0",
"backpack/theme-coreuiv4": "^1.1",
"backpack/theme-tabler": "^1.0",

I used your composer.json with the above. It Worked!

Either, you can try Quick Installation. https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/PRO#installation

Hi @karandatwani92,

I can't access that link, as you mentioned.

I tried again, but I got an error like the picture below.

I already bought a backpack everything, but I read on the log that I couldn't find any repositories.

[karandatwani92]

Try this https://backpackforlaravel.com/user/tokens

Go to the instructions tab, and follow the instructions.

@ada27 also try to clear composer caches with: composer clear-cache and make sure you are not overwriting the default composer behavior, because it seems that's trying to get the backpack/pro from the github repository, when it should be getting it from the private repo (as you don't have access the the github repository).

Also I noticed from the composer.json you posted that you have some packages without specified version(like backpack/pro: ""). @karandatwani92 provided a list of compatible version numbers, so you can fill up those missing package versions and try to install again. If you are still having issues let us know.

Cheers

Thanks, @karandatwani92 and @pxpm, for your advice. I added the auth.json credential to my project, and I can access repositories clearly.

Can I delete auth.json and backpack license on env before I deploy a project on the client server? because my credentials clearly show up in auth.json.

[karandatwani92]

Hey @ada27

You need credentials on client-server too! Ask your client to create a backpack account & get you a license from their account.

Many thanks @karandatwani92 @backpack-operations I think we can close this issue.
