Hello everybody,
I recently opened an issue on GitHub, but the more I think about it, the more confident I am, this is not a valet-bug, so I guess if I can gather more information, I am going to close this issue.
The problem
I was installing valet just like shown in the docs on my MacBook. Now I don't get a connection to :80 as NGINX is not running.
The install command of valet returned:
ā valet valet install
Stopping nginx...
Installing nginx...
[nginx] is not installed, installing it now via Brew... š»

[dnsmasq] is not installed, installing it now via Brew... š»
Updating Dnsmasq configuration...
Restarting dnsmasq...
Valet is configured to serve for TLD [.test]
Restarting nginx...
Valet installed successfully!
But: The Nginx is not running, as shown here
sudo brew services list
256
Name Status User File
dnsmasq started root
nginx error root
php started root
The syntax-check is giving no result, too:
sudo nginx -t
nginx: the configuration file /opt/homebrew/etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /opt/homebrew/etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful
But the Nginx-error-log shows this:
2021/11/27 19:30:41 [emerg] 73996#0: unexpected end of parameter, expecting ";" in command line
/opt/homebrew/var/log/nginx/error.log (END)
Well... That's kinda non informative for me. Alright, the service got an unexpected end of parameter and crashed with an emerg, but where did that parameter even come from?
Well, for sure there are no left-overs in the process list:
ps aux | grep nginx
