Missing service providers on composer update

I ran composer install --no-dev before having to manually deploy to a client's server by FTP that lacks SSH access. When I did so, I received the following error:

PHP Fatal error:  Class 'Way\Generators\GeneratorsServiceProvider' not found in C:\www\test.dev\laravel\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Foundation\ProviderRepository.php on line 158
PHP Stack trace:

Each of the app.php files has the line 'Way\Generators\GeneratorsServiceProvider'.

This was working fine before running that composer command. Why did this happen and how can it be fixed?

Laravel 4.1.

In your composer.json file, you have way/generators as a development machine dependency only. If you have the service provider 'Way\Generators\GeneratorsServiceProvider' in each of the app.php file, then it would mean that way/generators is a development machine as well as the deployment machine dependency. By doing composer install --no-dev, you're saying that the packages that are development machine dependency only, shouldn't go in the vendor directory, which means that the package way/generators is not installed in the vendor directory. That's why you're getting the error.

Since way/generators is a development dependency only, you should remove 'Way\Generators\GeneratorsServiceProvider' from app/config.php, so that the deployment machine wouldn't look for it.

Also if you're working on the development machine and performed composer install --no-dev, the way/generators package wouldn't be installed in the vendor directory and you'd get the above error. So you'd have to make the development machine environment as not local to test whether or not it'd work in the deployment machine.
