Thank you for reminding me of that troubleshooting page @swalkinshaw - there’s a lot of helpful tips in there . The project was not created with `trellis new`, but I have been using **trellis-cli** and have run `trellis init`.

I’ve been pressing ahead on the Lima front and have a few more clues:  
When I run `trellis vm shell` and `cd /srv/www/site.com/current/web` that directory does exist, but it is empty except for the `.env` file, which looks complete. It’s not clear to me what command I should run in the VM to try to make the rest of the sync happen.

I did notice that shortly before the  
`TASK [wordpress-install : Install Dependencies with Composer] ****************** `

failure, I see this warning:

```
TASK [wordpress-install : include_tasks] ***************************************
[WARNING]: TASK: wordpress-install : include_tasks: The loop variable 'site' is
already in use. You should set the `loop_var` value in the `loop_control`
option for the task to something else to avoid variable collisions and
unexpected behavior.
included: /Users/sam/Code/site/trellis/roles/wordpress-install/tasks/composer-authentications.yml for default => (item=(censored due to no_log))
```

… which seems like it could be related to this post: [Composer Issue with HTTP auth](https://discourse.roots.io/t/composer-issue-with-http-auth/24696). I tried changing the `site` variable to `site2` to avoid conflicts as suggested in the thread, and now when I run `trellis vm delete` and `trellis vm start` the wordpress-install Task fails at the Composer auth setup step:

```
TASK [wordpress-install : Setup composer authentications (HTTP Basic) - site.com] ***
failed: [default] (item=None) => {"censored": "the output has been hidden due to the fact that 'no_log: true' was specified for this result", "changed": false}
fatal: [default]: FAILED! => {"censored": "the output has been hidden due to the fact that 'no_log: true' was specified for this result", "changed": false}
```

I am using [packagist.com](https://packagist.com/) with a local `auth.json` file that holds the credentials. My composer.json is likewise set up to use my [Packagist.com](http://Packagist.com):

```
"repositories": [
    {
      "type": "composer",
      "url": "https://repo.packagist.com/my-org/"
    },
    {
      "packagist.org": false
    }
  ],
```
