  • Operating System (OS) and OS version:

Attach your Local Logs here (Help Doc - Retrieving Local’s Log)


Security Reminder
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.

Hi @rohan

You might start by trying to change your Router Mode in case there is a conflict here.

Preferences>Advanced>Router Mode

We also have a Windows Troubleshooting guide below that goes over some common items worth checking. For example, make sure you’re running Local as an admin user, that you don’t have any security blockers, and that Local has access to update your Hosts file.

I just changed my site domain settings to ‘localhost’ in Preferences. However, when I create a website, the admin panel opens instead of the site, and the front-end shows an HTTP 404 error.

So when you click on Open Site does it take you to the 404?

And when you click on WP Admin it takes you to the admin? What happens if you navigate to Visit Site from the Admin area?

Are you running other developer applications simultaneously? Apps like MAMP, XAMPP, or Docker for example.
