Hey @kenmackenzie – Thanks for your patience with this, and thanks for those logs!
I’ve taken a closer look at them on my end, and I’m seeing some errors like this:
"thread": "main",
"class": "WordPressInstaller",
"name": "RequestError",

That’s definitely an odd thing within the logs, which makes me think that there may have been a recent bug with Local on High Sierra.
Has Local ever been installed and working on this computer, with this version of the OS? If you are in a position to do so, can you update macOS to a more recent version?
