System Details

  • Which version of Local is being used?

  • What Operating System (OS) and OS version is being used?

    • For example: macOS Catalina or Windows 10 Professional
  • Attach the Local Log. See this Community Forum post for instructions on how to do so:

resolved by changing domain in local admin panel

This is usually what we recommend – having local sites use the .local top level domain so that you can still access any remote dev/staging/production sites while working.

So something like example.local set in the “Site Domain” field in Local.
