Problem during installation via composer "Installation request ... -> satisfiable by ..."

[sergey_sherstob]

I'm installing Magento Community Edition 2.3.4 via composer and during the installation Magento tells me there is a problem:

Problem 1
    - Installation request for magento/product-community-edition 2.3.4 -> satisfiable by magento/product-community-edition[2.3.4].

Though the installation itself seemed to be completed. Is it a serious problem? How do I fix it?

@sergey_sherstob  Were you able to install Magento or not? If it got installed then you are good and ignore it. If not installed yet then try

composer install

composer update

If it still does not work then providing your composer.json from the root as well as the out put on the CLI will help in addressing your issue.

I actually didn't post the whole problem. That is the whole problem that I had:

Problem 1
    - Installation request for magento/product-community-edition 2.3.4 -> satisfiable by magento/product-community-edition[2.3.4].
    - magento/product-community-edition 2.3.4 requires ext-soap * -> the requested PHP extension soap is missing from your system.

After I installed an extension ext-soap I was able to install Magento.

Thank you for your help!
