[QUOTE="malcolmi, post: 1926627, member: 80331"] I am using homebrew to set up Apache and PHP on MacOS Monterey since Apple no longer supports PHP. I have successfully installed homebrew and have been following the instructions at [URL="https://tech-cookbook.com/2021/10/25/how-to-setup-mamp-macos-apache-mysql-php-on-macos-12-monterey-2021/"]How to Setup MAMP (MacOS, Apache, MySQL, PHP) Local Server on macOS 12 Monterey M1 Mac (2021)[/URL]. I have also checked the homebrew console output which tells me that whereas tech-cookbook refers to /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/ this should be replaced by /usr/local/opt/httpd/ The installation seems to have worked OK: % brew services restart httpd Stopping `httpd`... (might take a while) ==> Successfully stopped `httpd` (label: homebrew.mxcl.httpd) ==> Successfully started `httpd` (label: homebrew.mxcl.httpd) % brew services restart php Stopping `php`... (might take a while) ==> Successfully stopped `php` (label: homebrew.mxcl.php) ==> Successfully started `php` (label: homebrew.mxcl.php) But when I try to access localhost via browser I get Unable to connect An error occurred during a connection to localhost. I have checked the content of httpd.conf many times. Can anyone suggest how to find out what's wrong? Thank you. - Malcolm [/QUOTE]
