i have some problems installing Laravel 4.1 in Windows 7 via the first method explained in the Laravel documentation ( http://laravel.com/docs/installation#install-laravel ).
So I downloaded the laravel.phar file and put it in my path ( System32 ). Which would be the equivalent of /usr/bin in linux based systems?
( I also added .PHAR in the PATHEXT system variable ).
When i ran the laravel command from the command line it didn't know how to open it, so i chose to open it with php.exe. Now, when I run the composer command it says: "Could not open input file: C:\Windows\system32\laravel.phar".
I suppose it's less a problem with laravel itself but my limited knowledge of the Windows command line. The installation via composer works fine.
Any help is appreciated.
To rephrase and clarify this question: How do I make a .phar file globally available to the Windows command line?
