Heyhey,

in the last weeks there are more and more questions about an exception while doing composer commands.


It is normally about the "curl error 55" exception, for example:

curl error 55 while downloading https://repo.packagist.org/p2/spryker/cms-block-gui-extension~dev.json: Failed sending data to the peer

If there is no "curl error 55" you wound normally still have overflowing deprecation warnings whenever you install or update something with composer:

The solution is normally the following ✅

  1. Open the cli-container docker/sdk cli
  2. Remove the falsy package with composer remove —dev sllh/composer-versions-check

Background 🔎

This package is deprecated for some time but nowadays it creates noise and is a blocker. It will be removed from the demo-shops within the next product release. Until then you have to manually remove it.

Hope this unblocks you ✌️ Please upvote if this was helpful for you 🤝

Best, Florian

    This does not remove the curl 55 error. I have the feeling that the curl 55 error comes from the feature packages that resolves into a dos to the package registry. If i resolve the feature packages into normal packages, it works fine.

    @marco.kaiser you are right. It fixed it for me and for others in some cases but not for all.

    Today curl 8.2.0 got released and I tested it - it seems to fix it properly.

    https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/10591#issuecomment-1632024763
    https://github.com/composer/composer/pull/11543

    I already created a MR for alpine linux to include that version so we can update the Spryker images:

    Stay tuned ⛑️

    Heyhey,

    small update: There was a workaround released in composer (the root cause is still unknown) and we updated the php-image to use the composer version 2.6.4 . If you use the image with the tag spryker/php:8.1 you can execute docker/sdk pull and then it should finally work without that "curl error 55" exception!

    All the best,

    Florian
