Installation problems

[heddesheimer]

Hi, I tried the installation but getting this. What am I missing?

Setting up TYPO3

Check environment / create folders: OK

Connect to database: User name for database server (default: ""): User password for database server:

[TYPO3\CMS\Core\Error\Exception] Warning: copy(phar://C:/ProgramData/ComposerSetup/bin/composer.phar/vendor/symfony/console/Helper/../Resources/bin/ hiddeninput.exe): failed to open stream: phar error: "vendor/symfony/console/Resources/bin/hiddeninput.exe" is not a file in phar "C:/ProgramData/ComposerSetup/bin/composer.phar" in phar://C:/ProgramData/ComposerSetup/bin/composer .phar/vendor/symfony/console/Helper/QuestionHelper.php line 330

That obviously seems to be an error in your composer.phar or within the embedded Symfony component. What is the composer version you are using?

[heddesheimer]

I just installed a fresh composer version for Windows. It says it's version 1.6.5

As far as I can see, the issue is that composer.phar does not include this file. I opened a ticket in composer issue tracker

[heddesheimer]

Thank you. So all I can do is to wait until they fixed it?

You could try installing from git bash instead. Could work.

Or put a file .installed next to the composer.json of this distribution, which skips the install during composer install. And then do vendor/bin/typo3cms install:setup.

fixed in Composer a long time ago.
