If you're using Ubuntu the Phar class does not seem to be included in the php cli distribution that comes preinstalled.

Locate the php executable file. It's likely to be on /usr/bin/

cd /usr/bin

Try and see if you have php files 

ls -l | grep php

You might see php and php7.1 listed. If that's the case

sudo mv php php-old
sudo mv php7.1 php

  1. Check, if the Phar extension is installed/enabled.
  2. If installed, and not enabled - enable it in php.ini, or run command like this: php -d extension=phar.so {path_to_composer_bin} require react/zmq
