I'm trying to get my head around the PHP dependency manager Composer, so that I can install a package from a private GitHub repository.
I've followed the instructions about using private repositories for a test repo, and I'm getting a weird 406 error which is:
The requested resource is only capable of generating content not acceptable according to the Accept headers sent in the request.
The error message is:
$ composer install -n
Loading composer repositories with package information
Installing dependencies (including require-dev)
- Installing growdigital/access (0.0.3)
Downloading: connection...Failed to download growdigital/access from dist: The "https://github.com/growdigital/access/archive/0.0.3.zip" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/1.1 406 Not Acceptable)
Now trying to download from source
- Installing growdigital/access (0.0.3)
Cloning 464c3a3a580ded3fdaf43a246388b6de33fbac89
So it is working insofar as installing from source rather than the zip. My question really is, how on earth do I address the 406 error? Is there something I need to do to modify composer?
