I'm trying to install spark with the installer on freshly created homestead (using vagrant), got the error
vagrant@homestead:~/Code$ spark new Sparkle
sh: 1: laravel: Permission denied
I've got the required Laravel Installer
vagrant@homestead:~/Code$ laravel -v
Laravel Installer version 1.3.3
looked inside the code, obviously, spark installer tries to run
laravel new Sparkle
but with no luck((
OK, in case someone else hits the same issue, replace
PATH="/root/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
with
PATH="/home/vagrant/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
in ~/.profile and don't forget to add spark installer to the path, e.g.
PATH="/home/vagrant/Code/spark-installer:$PATH"
I might need to create a pull request to fix this
THANK YOU!!! I've been trying to figure this out for several hours!
should i change that in my homestead VM?
I got around this luckily because I share my dotfiles environment with vagrant. Good spot though.
@sijdesign yes, ~/.profile in the VM
btw, it has been fixed already https://github.com/laravel/settler/pull/75 https://github.com/laravel/settler/commit/b90b50f4e1fa13a3d0c9fd849dac29de5fa3b343
@vitr not the bash_profile?
@sijdesign no, just ~/.profile, give a read http://stackoverflow.com/questions/415403/whats-the-difference-between-bashrc-bash-profile-and-environment
