Cannot install plugin

Hi.
This is the first time I install a plugin in roundcube so bear with me,
Following the instructions located here, I installed composer, seemingly successfully, in a dedicated folder within the public_html folder where roundcube is also located.
Running php composer.phar returns the list of commands with no errors.
Then I ran the command:
php composer.phar require --update-no-dev -o "roundcube/carddav:*"
but the installation fails:
include_once(/home/<username>/domains/<domainname>/composer/program/include/clisetup.php): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory
I can see that, despite me having installed composer, there is no such 'program' folder anywhere to be seen. Not sure why. The installation returned no errors.
What am I doing wrong?
Hello,
you can put the composer.phar anywhere, I also would not put it in a directory served by the webserver.
Of course when calling composer, you will have to specify the correct path to composer.phar.
The important bit, and I guess this is what you are currently doing wrong, is that you must call composer inside the roundcube installation directory. The program folder is part of roundcube, not composer.
All clear, thank you.
But it still fails. It seems it needs the ldap extensions.
Can I run it with the --ignore-platform-req=ext-ldap argument or is ldap a carddav requirement?
It is a roundcube dependency if you want to use the LDAP addressbook. Rcmcarddav does not need it. So the answer is yes. You could also remove it from composer.json.
Is this resolved for you?
Yes, I installed, thank you. Now there's the problem that it won't recognize any of the Nextcloud links I am trying to open. But that's for another thread I guess
[EDIT] Forget what I said, I got it to work. No need for another thread.
