I am trying to test out Local without removing Valet. I have stopped valet, and Local starts fine, but would not run Sequel Pro correctly. I created a new WordPress site test. I suspect it is a PATH issue. Here is what I have:
I then tried opening Local with open /Applications/Local.app and then starting Sequel Pro the normal way. I do have Sequel Pro already installed. I suspect I would need the path for Nginx and whatever is left, but WordPress runs fine.
Are there plans to use an alternative like Sequel Pro Ace since Sequel Pro is not being developed/supported anymore? It’s been crashing more regularly for me.
I also have an issue open for opening the DB in Sequel Ace via a URL scheme (https://github.com/Sequel-Ace/Sequel-Ace/issues/108) which is how I assume the “Open in Sequel Pro” functionality in Local is supposed to work so that we can build a Local add-on that opens the DB in Sequel Ace. I’ll post an update here if I hear back from them and they get this working.
As a side note, let me know if there are other conveniences that you’d like to see in Local. We just released an add-on for Local and are looking to develop more.
Ah… interesting. I figured it might be a file permission issue based on the error message in the screenshot above, but was thinking about it in reverse.
On a whim I tried setting macOS security for Ace to “Full disk access” doesn’t fix it either, but I suspect that’s the route they’re going to need to take to grant Ace access to sockets outside the app.
