[Bug]: Nginx process can not start

[curder]

Platform

macOS

Operating system version

macOS Tahoe 26.2

System architecture

ARM64 (M1, M2, etc)

Herd Version

1.24.2 (Build: 59)

PHP Version

PHP 8.2.29 (cli) (built: Jul 4 2025 00:24:29) (NTS)

Bug description

I updated my macOS system today from Tahoe 26.1 to Tahoe 26.2. After the update, I found that Herd was not working properly. Even after reinstalling, it still didn't work. I finally discovered that the nginx process was not starting correctly, while the related dnsmasq and php-fpm processes were starting normally.

I checked the nginx logs at /Users/curder/Library/Application Support/Herd/Log/nginx-error.log, but there were no logs in nginx itself. Please tell me how to debug to pinpoint the problem and get nginx running successfully.

Steps to reproduce

➜  nginx herd restart
Restarting DNSMasq...
Restarting PHP $_sock_...
Restarting PHP 8.2...
Restarting Nginx...
Herd services have been restarted.

➜  nginx ps aux |grep dnsmasq

I completely uninstalled and reinstalled it using commands, and it's working normally now. Sorry!
