Error Installing/Updating Backpack Packages via Composer (HTTP/2 400 and “Repository not found”)

[pocmar]

Hello,

I am encountering an issue when installing or updating Backpack packages using Composer. I have generated and registered a Personal Access Token for Backpack for Laravel, and the configuration appears to be correct. However, when running the following command:

composer update backpack/* --with-all-dependencies

Composer returns the following error:

Failed to download backpack/dataform-modal from dist:
The "https://backpackforlaravel.com/satis/download/dist/backpack/dataform-modal/backpack-dataform-modal-66cefcb04f541bc5100c331fee24130a91e01ff7-zip-a41bbe.zip" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/2 400)
Now trying to download from source

After that, the fallback attempt to GitHub also fails with:

Failed to execute git clone --mirror --
https://:[email protected]/Laravel-Backpack/dataform-modal.git/
remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/dataform-modal.git/' not found

Additional notes:

The Backpack token is correctly configured in auth.json.

Other Backpack packages install without issues.

The problem appears only with backpack/dataform-modal

Please assist in identifying the root cause of this error.

Thank you.

Hello @pocmar

Thanks for the question. The backpack/dataform-modal is a private package only available for "Everything" customers.

If you are not an "Everything" customer, for the moment it's not possible to buy the package separatelly.

So to continue with your installation you should remove backpack/dataform-modal from your composer.json file.

If YOU ARE an Everything customer and still facing issues, please shout an email to [email protected] and send the link of this issue to be analysed further.

We plan to allow developers to buy that package separatelly in the future for a reasonable price, in case you don't need the full Everything package, but we haven't got to it yet. 😞

Cheers

That is a seriously disappointing answer. This should be clearly stated in the documentation.

Sorry for the disapointment @pocmar 😞

I've just added a note to the docs stating that Dataform Modal is a paid package and that at the moment is only available for "Everything" customers.

Thanks and sorry once again. 🙏
