### What issue or error are you experiencing?

I cannot load any of my sites using Site Domains. They will load using localhost. I would obviously like to use Site Domains if possible.  
[local-logs.zip](https://community.localwp.com/uploads/short-url/71pIqL6SiqCOdZaxiCFVe1ocE1j.zip) (33.5 KB)

I get this message:  
Heads up! Locals router is having trouble starting.

I’ve tried to shut down Apache which apparently is using Port 80 using the following command in terminal: `sudo apachectl stop`

I then get the following response:

```auto
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist: Could not find specified service

Unload failed: 113: Could not find specified service

```

I tried finding what’s using Port 80 using this commaned:  
`sudo lsof -i :80`

This is the response:

```auto
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
Google 494 huw 19u IPv6 0x2f45d26023c6132b 0t0 TCP [2a00:23c7:1910:4301:7803:b0c9:24e2:811e]:49472->lhr25s34-in-x03.1e100.net:http (CLOSED)

```

Any help would be most grateful. Thank you

Hey @HuwRowlands

Were you able to use Site Domains in the past and suddenly it stopped?

What about a full machine reboot? Does that help clear anything up?

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

I am not using or have not used MAMP etc on this mac actually. I have just copied over from my older mac to this one recently and fired up Local for the first time in a little while to be honest with you.

I was using Site Domains in the past yes but on my older mac.

Reboots don’t work either unfortunately.

Your MacOS version is below our minimum requirements but I don’t think that would prevent Site Domains from working specifically. That could be why it was working on an older version of the app on your older Mac however.

You could try downgrading to an older version of Local, and then see if Site Domains works again. Possibly

I’ve downgraded to Version 9.0.5+6706 but still, only localhost works.

Any ideas how I can resolve this please?

You might have to downgrade further @HuwRowlands to maybe Local version 8.3.2 or lower.
