composer setup returning error #225

Closed tommyraudy closed 7 years ago

tommyraudy commented 7 years ago

Im istalling the panel on my ubuntu server by following your tutorial video, everything went fine after I write this command curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | sudo php -- --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer but when I type this command, composer setup it showing error

[RuntimeException] /var/www/pterodactyl/html/vendor does not exist and could not be created

and

Script composer install --ansi --no-dev handling the setup event returned with error code 1

Do im doing wrong? Im doing like what i see on your tutorial. btw Im not running the composer command without root or sudo

schrej commented 7 years ago

please check your permissions, my first guess would be the directory can't be created.

tommyraudy commented 7 years ago

thanks but it worked after i run the command as sudo...

DaneEveritt commented 7 years ago

Not an ideal fix, but generally this happens because the folder you're in is owned by www-data or a different user than you're using to run the composer command. You can run it using su and using whatever user as well.

The issue is the guide to install makes no mention of needing to change permissions. https://pterodactyl.io/panel/1.0/getting_started.html#download-files So everything for me is mostly owned by root in that /var/www structure.

But then when you run this command: composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader It tells you it can't create the Vendor sub as noted above. OK, I will run that as root too

Nope, now you get this error message telling you specifically NOT to run Composer as root. https://getcomposer.org/doc/faqs/how-to-install-untrusted-packages-safely.md

So I feel like the documentation needs to be updated here about how to handle permissions for /var/www as the current instructions simply don't work, as noted by the above which still doesn't seem fixed 7 years later...

Any update on this issue? im getting the same results as @Casper042

You can ignore the warning from composer about running as root.

Also, next time please visit the Discord and ask there instead of reviving a 7 year old github issue.
