Hey @coreyallen –

- What version of Local are you using?
- What Operating System and OS version is being used?
- Can you please provide your Local Log? See this Community Forum post for instructions on how to do so:
  - [How do I retrieve Local’s Log?](https://localwp.com/community/t/how-do-i-retrieve-locals-log-file/3720)

- Does this happen for all sites in Local, or just one?
- Are you able to create a new, plain WordPress site?

One way you might be able to workaround this is to export the site using Adminer from the Database tab. I think this might work since that tool doesn’t relying on `mysqldump` to export the db.
