First, I'm running macOS High Sierra, with Homebrew's PHP 7.1

I've also followed the Valet documentation to the letter, as well as trying what was on these asks: Valet (Laravel): DNS address can not be found and Laravel valet It works aaaaaand, despite all of that, when I navigate to project.dev, I just get "It works!" I was having issues pinging, but that turned out to be Stealth Mode in the macOS Firewall.

I have Laravel set up in this directory, so I SHOULD be getting the default splash page, right?

Also, in case it matters, here's the line I used to install PHP 7.1 itself: brew install php71 --with-httpd --with-pear --with-postgresql --with-thread-safety --with-homebrew-curl

  • Can you check if your php.ini is set to display errors? `display_errors = On` – tintinboss Oct 30 '17 at 10:59
  • @tintinboss I do have Errors set to display `E_ALL` and no errors are in my command line or my browser. – Janet Oct 30 '17 at 16:52
  • display `E_ALL` and `display_error = On` are not the same constant on php.ini I'd still suggest to check that. – tintinboss Oct 30 '17 at 17:03
  • @tintinboss I did already; I apologize for not being clear. `display_errors` is set to `On` and the level is set to `E_ALL`. – Janet Oct 30 '17 at 17:12
  • Ahh! I think your nginx virtual host is not set! Did you follow this ? https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/valet#serving-sites Also try `link` as described in docs. Make sure your site is on default directory `~/Sites/..` – tintinboss Oct 30 '17 at 17:17
  • Also, make sure your in built apache2 server (High Sierra) is stopped by running `apachectl stop` followed by a `valet restart` . Worth a try – tintinboss Oct 30 '17 at 17:20
  • Done, done, and done, and I've been running `valet restart` after I try anything. – Janet Oct 30 '17 at 17:27

You should check your settings related to firewall. Make sure you are allowing pings and ICMP.

To check it on a Mac :

System Preference > Security & Privacy > Firewall > Firewall Options

  • That takes care of the ping issue, but I'm still not seeing the Laravel splash :( (But hey, progress is progress, especially at 2am!) – Janet Oct 30 '17 at 07:09
  • This could be related to your precompiled files. Let's delete compiled.php inside vendor folder and run `composer update` from the command line.If that works i will edit my asnwer according to this. If not we try to come up with another solution. – Atilla Arda Açıkgöz Oct 30 '17 at 07:20
  • Alrighty, nuked /vendor and ran `composer update`, restarted valet, and, just to insure that caching wasn't kicking my rear end again, I opened a Private tab and went to project.dev again and "It Works" >. – Janet Oct 30 '17 at 07:30
  • Did you check services list with brew? `> brew services list` command will show you services. Some might be stopped. – Atilla Arda Açıkgöz Oct 30 '17 at 08:11
  • php71 nginx and dnsmasq are all running. (Character limit prevents me from pasting the full output of that command.) httpd is also specifically listed as stopped. All 3 services are running as root; is that a problem? – Janet Oct 30 '17 at 08:13
  • I really can't point out the problem since you tried trobleshootings. But i can suggest you to follow this answers guides, https://stackoverflow.com/a/42976841/4465062 Maybe you are missing some steps. – Atilla Arda Açıkgöz Oct 30 '17 at 08:49

This sounds like the Apache that comes pre-installed with macos is running in the port 80. Before starting valet, make sure that Apache is stopped.

You can these commands: sudo apachectl stop or sudo apachectl -k stop to stop Apache, and after that, then you can proceed with your valet process.

Hope it helps.
