在 laravel7.9.2 项目中运行 composer update 时发生“errno=5 输入/输出错误”

Question

I'm trying to do composer update in a laravel project in my local system, but caught this error:

errno=5 input/output error

~ compoeser update

Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
  [ErrorException]
  hash_file(): read of 8192 bytes failed with errno=5 Input/output error

It's happening after installing the php-intl extension.

I completely reinstall php and all its extensions in my system, but the problem not solved. also, I reinstall the composer and install another new laravel but neither solved the problem.

OS: Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS 64bit

php: 7.4.5

laravel: 7.9.2

Answer 2

In case you run that in a VM, try adding RAM. I found that my Vagrantbox defaulted to 512MB. After setting it to 2048 via.Vagrantfile it worked.
