Try installing via composer :)

Try installing using Composer. It is easier and you will need composer at some point of your development anyway. Once you've installed composer cd into our directory and then the following command in your terminal -

composer create-project laravel/laravel directory_name 4.2

Hopefully this will work.

Cheers!

Solution

@dmahesh22, if you read the code of installer, you'll see that it just downloads http://cabinet.laravel.com/latest.zip and extracts it into the specified directory. There's no way to specify a version of laravel to fetch, it's always the latest. So yeah, use composer.
