Bad Port Error When Using Atlas Extension

Local Add-ons Atlas: Headless WP
#1

When creating a new site using the Atlas extension I get the following error;

RangeError [ERR_SOCKET_BAD_PORT]: options.port should be >= 0 and < 65536. Received NaN.

  code: 'ERR_SOCKET_BAD_PORT'
}

I can see the WordPress side of the installation but the front end section outputs the above in the terminal. I was wondering if anyone else has came across this issue before.

When creating from the portfolio blue print I don’t get this error but I do get the following error instead;

error - Could not find NEXT_PUBLIC_WORDPRESS_URL environment variable.

I am running nginx, PHP 8.1.9 with WordPress version 6.1.1 on Local 6.6.1+6281

Hi @lewisself - thanks for checking out Local/Atlas!

What operating system are you on? I’m unable to reproduce this on my machine, but I’m on MacOS Monterey (12.6.3). I’m going to fire up Windows machine and try there!
