Can't create a new project in Laravel

Question

I installed the composer on my mac os and install laravel and added it to the path

so now printing the path you can see

 sudo nano /etc/paths

the result is:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Users/myname/.composer/vendor/bin/laravel

so laravel is there, however, when I do:

laravel new blog

I got this error:

-bash: laravel: command not found

Is laravel executable? Please give the result of ls -l /Users/myname/.composer/vendor/bin/laravel. — A.L

Have you restarted the terminal since updating the path? You'll need to do that, or source your bash file — Jeff

the result is:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Users/myname/.composer/vendor/bin/laravel

(emphasize mine)

See how most of the paths end with bin, but not the one with laravel.

You have to provide the path of the directory which contain the laravel command, your $PATH should be:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Users/myname/.composer/vendor/bin/
