The Issue

Below, we explore issues and solutions related to the cases when the Magento 2 GitHub repository was cloned.

One of the most common errors when you run the Web Setup Wizard but the installation dependencies are not met looks as follows:

Magento\Framework\Exception
 Command returned non-zero exit code:
`/usr/bin/php5 -f '/var/www/magento2/dev/shell/run_data_fixtures.php' -- --bootstrap='MAGE_DIRS[base][path]=/var/www/magento2' 2>&1`

Magento\Framework\Exception

`/usr/bin/php5 -f '/var/www/magento2/dev/shell/run_data_fixtures.php' -- --bootstrap='MAGE_DIRS[base][path]=/var/www/magento2' 2>&1`

You may face the following Exception PHP issues as well:

Class ‘Magento\Framework\Stdlib\DateTime\TimezoneInterface’ not found in /var/www/magento2/app/bootstrap.php on line 56</pre>

Dependencies not installed. Please run 'composer install' under /setup directory.


Whoops, it looks like setup tool dependencies are not installed.
