Bug description

I'm new to all this PHP/Laravel/Herd world, so I don't really know how all this tools (valet/herd) work under the hood, please bear with me.

I installed Valet a while back, and used it for a little bit. Then when I read about Herd I uninstalled Valet and installed Herd, but somehow it still told me that "You have valet installed, let's migrate, etc".

Some services didn't start, but I restarted the computer and it worked.

Today I'm tried to use it again, but I keep getting the "Site can't be reached" error. I tried to upgrade to the latest Herd version, uninstall it, install it again, restart the computer, etc. And I still get the error, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I have checked the nginx, DNSMask and FPM-8.2 logs, and the only one with contents is the last one, this is the log:

The app itself looks like everything is "working":

I'm not sure where to look at, or what to try, so any help is appreciated.

Let me know if there is any more information that I can provide!

I have the same problem on a Intel Mac

[jhgeluk]

Experiencing the same, also on Intel Mac

[mpociot]

Could you please check if the following file exists: /etc/resolver/test?
If it does not, please create it with the following content:

nameserver 127.0.0.1

[rubenmoya]

Sorry to reopen this, I've just checked and it does exist:

Is there any information I can provide to debug it?

I am also facing the same issue, valet was working perfectly fine, installing herd seems to be a problem for me.

Am facing same problem on windows 10. Is there any way to fix this please. I'm completely new to PHP Laravel and herd world. As matter of fact, this is my first bite using Laravel bootcamp chirper project 😉

As for my case, herd is serving from c:\users\user\Herd
Site in this directory like http://chirper.test says can't be reach

Any support to fix this will be appreciated 👍

In my case (on Mac) this was caused by having a NextDNS profile installed. When I disabled it I could access the site again (had to do a composer install first but not sure if that was related).

Solution : open your browser and change dns to default os dns

[phutd]

In my case ( on Mac intel ), open GG Chrome settings and change DNS.
Example: GG public DNS - DNS Os

It works well for me.

Solution : open your browser and change dns to default os dns

In my case (on Mac Intel), open GG Chrome settings and change DNS (change to OS default)
It works well for me.

Hello I encountered the same problem and above method didn't work

[clipsmm]

Still experiencing the issue. It has been working the suddenly stopped working for all .test domains

ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED

MacBook Pro M3

But the .test domains are working well on other browsers: chrome, mozilla, safari

[hexlay]

None of the above helped on latest macos and latest herd (1.9.1) i still have ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED and can't seem to fix it, also no logs are being written for that as well

[lancedouglas1]

Same issue, above solutions didn't help. Latest Herd and MacOs on M3

[mochadwi]

the secure dns part on edge, solved my issue, thanks everyone suggesting

[jeffegiovani]

For me, in Windows, above solutions didn't help. Reinstalling Herd solved my problem.

Note to future self or others; for me, Little Snitch (network firewall) was routing all requests to a secure DNS server. Added a custom exception for the project.test domain and it worked.
