Local 5.9.7 update issue: cannot access site in Chrome browser (macOS)

I’m glad that downgrading worked for you and thanks for such a detailed topic! It really helps to drill down to what the underlying issue is!

I took a look at the Local log and have a few questions:

  • I’m seeing some references to httpd in there – are both of the sites that were having issues running apache?

  • Since downgrading PHP helped, I wonder if you need to manually upgrade the PHP lightning service to get PHP 7.4.1 to work. We’re working on making the service update process better, but in the meantime, can you try the steps outlined in this FAQ:

  • Lastly, I’d be curious to see the router log (“Help > Reveal Local Router Log”) as well as the various server (php,apache,MySQL) logs for the individual site. You can get those in the logs folder next to the app folder for the specific site that was having issues.
