When I run the following command in the command prompt I get the following error
command "composer global require laravel/installer"
error "In CurlDownloader.php line 365:
curl error 7 while downloading https://repo.packagist.org/packages.json: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 8465 after 2044 ms: Connection refused"
I have tried the following solutions :
- running Composer without SSL/TLS protection disabled but I got the same error
- downloading the packages on github and then use it to develop laravel but that did not work either
- turning off windows firewall
- changing directories and even changing the command prompt to the xampp shell !
I mostly undid the changes after finding out that they aren't effective just need a way to Install laravel and become a software developer ;)
"composer diagnose " result :
