Laravel Collection installation with Composer and Laravel 5

Question

I need help with a problem.

I'm learning Laravel 5. And I've found a problem trying to do something.

I tried to install Laravel Collection. I go to composer.json and I add this line on require:

"laravelcollective/html": "5.1.*"

But when I execute composer update on shell, I have an error: Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages. And a lot of posibles conclusions to the problem.

I put a screenshot to help you to understand.

Answer 1

Actually, the error messages are clear. You are trying to install a package that has a dependency of laravel componenents with a version of 5.1, but in your composer.json file, you imply that your project works with laravel 5.0. Either change the laravelcollective/html version to 5.0.* or change and upgrade your laravel dependency as 5.1.* so that your problem will be solved.
