The process has been signaled with signal "6"

I was developing away last night; making changes and refreshing, making changes and refreshing as you do.

I then typed into terminal

valet secure

and then bingo... local environment stopped working.

I then typed

valet unsecure

but everything just stopped working. Now, when I try to go to ANY of my local sites I just get the browser error "cannot connect to server".

I've upgraded valet, restarted it, restarted my machine. Nothing is working.

Any ideas? Oh I forgot to say, since upgrading to the latest version of valet I now get

In Process.php line 423:
The process has been signaled with signal "6".

whenever I try to do valet restart or valet start

@mick79 did you tried uninstall and install on valet?

Try valet install one more time. And when you use valet secure I guess you are providing a project name, for example valet secure laravel6 ?

Hi @nakov thanks for replying. Yes, when I upgraded to the latest version of Valet this constituted a re-install.

I didn't supply a project name. I was inside the correct directory so I just types valet secure - this is what I always do.

I'll try valet install one more time.

Thanks again.

@mick79 hm, it seems like this error is so generic, and it appears to many people for different reasons. Try updating the global composer dependencies please:

composer global update

sorry @nakov that didn't change anything.

Line 423 of Process.php is this

if ($this->processInformation['signaled'] && $this->processInformation['termsig'] !== $this->latestSignal) {
            throw new ProcessSignaledException($this);
        }

I was advised to run sudo nginx -t and this happened
