I have been developing with Vallet for some time now. Today i wanted to update laravel 5.4 to 5.5. Before doing so i run composer global update. Causing Vallet to stop working.
Fist i tried to do the following:
cd ~/.composer/
sudo chown -R $(whoami) vendor
source: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/getting-valet-not-found-error
I did not solve the issue. Then i decided to reinstall Vallet. Hereby i did the following:
I followed this: https://github.com/laravel/valet/issues/321
Stop and uninstall services
sudo brew services stop php71 dnsmasq nginx
brew uninstall php71 dnsmasq nginx
Remove related config files and valet home folder
sudo rm -r /usr/local/etc/php /usr/local/etc/nginx /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf
sudo rm -r ~/.valet /var/root/.valet
Install services i tried this:
brew install php71
$ brew tap homebrew/php
$ brew install php71
brew install homebrew/php/php71
All gave the following error:
MacBook-Pro:~ mblivier$ brew install homebrew/php/php71
==> Installing php71 from homebrew/php Error: The following formula: php71
cannot be installed as a binary package and must be built from source.
Install the Command Line Tools:xcode-select --install
I new in this and don't know how to solve this. Any suggestions how to install php and go further with reinstalling Vallet?
You need xcode to build php, so first run:
xcode-select --install
to install xcode and later you can brew install php71
