### What steps can be taken to replicate the issue? Feel free to include screenshots, videos, etc

### System Details

- **Local Version:**

- **Operating System (OS) and OS version:**

### Local Logs

Attach your Local Logs here ([Help Doc - Retrieving Local’s Log](https://localwp.com/help-docs/troubleshooting/retrieving-locals-log-file/))

_ **Security Reminder** _  
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.

Are you on Windows? If so you might start here:

Could you provide some more details to help us take a further look?

- What is your OS version? For example Windows 7/10/11?

- What version of Local are you on?

- Please attach a copy of your [Local Logs](https://localwp.com/help-docs/troubleshooting/retrieving-locals-log-file/#download-local-logs)

Keep us posted and we’d be happy to help further!

The errors in your log are repeating like this:

```auto
2023/07/15 18:10:46 [emerg] 4380#10684: bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (10013: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions)

```

It looks like there is still some permission or security setting from your machine that is blocking Local.

One thing you could try to get going is to change your Router Mode. Preferences\>Advanced\>Router Mode and switch it to Localhost.

Are you running other developer applications simultaneously? That could also cause similar issues. Apps like MAMP, XAMPP, or Docker for example.

Some other forum threads here that might help:

Hi @Shuja

If you change your Router Mode to Localhost does that help? If you’re running WAMP at the same time that could be part of the problem.

You can find your Router Mode by going to Preferences\>Advanced
