title: How to install Laravel 5.0
body: <p>I'm having trouble getting a test instance of Laravel 5.0 up and running so I can assist with this transition.</p>
  
  <p>1) Creating a new app from <a href="https://github.com/laravel/laravel/tree/develop" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/laravel/laravel/tree/develop</a> leads to the following error when running <code>composer install</code>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>{"error":
      {"type":"ErrorException",
       "message":"Undefined index: timezone",
       "file":"\/Projects\/indatus\/dispatcher-test-app\/vendor\/laravel\/framework\/src\/Illuminate\/Foundation\/start.php",
       "line":167}
  }
  {"error":
      {"type":"ErrorException",
       "message":"Undefined index: timezone",
       "file":"\/Projects\/indatus\/dispatcher-test-app\/vendor\/laravel\/framework\/src\/Illuminate\/Foundation\/start.php",
       "line":167}}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Am I completely missing something?</p>
