Hi.

I'm trying to install, with composer, repo, added into packagist on my local server. I get such error:

php8.3 ~/composer_2_7_6 create-project author/name --repository-url "http://localhost:8000/"

In CurlDownloader.php line 640:
                                                                                                   
  The "http://localhost:8000/packages.json" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found)

What could cause such problem? Thanks
