# Bug Summary

Any attempt to trust any of my websites come up with error:

Heads-up! we ran into an issue trusting the Local SSL certificate

# Steps to reproduce

Click the Trust link alongside SSL

# Environment Info

Describe your environment.

- MacOS Ventura 13.7.2
- What nginx PHP 8.1.23
- What version of Local is installed?

# Supporting info

If I eventually get the site shown as trusted, Safari still complains of a none Secure Connection

The Log file contains and entry which tends to indicate a startup command error

{“class”:“Process”,“level”:“warn”,“message”:“nginx: [warn] the "listen … http2" directive is deprecated, use the "http2" directive instead in %%router.runPath%%/nginx/conf/server-block-ssl.conf:2”,“process”:“nginx”,“thread”:“main”,“timestamp”:“2025-01-06T23:56:15.119Z”}
