I am working on this website on the local app.

I am having trouble seeing the website when i click on the “admin” button in the local app for that website.

It just shows me this:

“Local Router Error  
Our apologies for the inconvenience. The Local router is not able to connect to the site you requested.  
We suggest you try the following:  
• Restart Site - Go to the Local by Flywheel app and restart the site you are attempting to access.  
• Contact us - If the issue persists please contact us.”

Then I tried to stop and restart the website on the local app.

And its taking forever. its been at it for almost 2 hours, and the site is still note stopped.

note: even clicking on the live link from the local app to the site in question is pulling up the local server error

but when i try to log in through the website from the flywheel.sites wp-admin end, i can finally get into the website.  
\*\*but its been a while since i was last on this website and cant remember which is the most updated, so i want to see both (from local and from flywheel “live”) to see which one i made the most recent changes on.

anyone else experience [any part of] this?
