Creating a Laravel project

I have followed a tutorial on Tuts plus called "Getting started with laravel 4". My cygwin and composer works fine. When i try installing laravel using the following command:

$ composer create-project laravel/laravel laravel

i get the following message:

Installing laravel/laravel (v4.2.0)
Downloading: 100%

Created project in laravel

[InvalidArgumentException]
Composer could not find the config file: C:\ProgramData\ComposerSetup\bin
To initialize a project, please create a composer.json file as described in  
the http://getcomposer.org/ "Getting Started" section

I have also tried : composer create-project laravel/laravel project-name --prefer-dist. but same error .

I have tried looking at the Getting Started section but I am not sure what this file should contain in a laravel project?

You can do it by entering this composer command:

$ composer create-project laravel/laravel projectname

This will install the required files under projectname folder
