Host already exists: "local-by-flywheel"

Okay, based off of your logs it looks like it’s caused by some leftover Pressmatic info.

Here’s what you can try:

  1. Quit out of Local

  2. Browse to ~/Library/Application Support/Local by Flywheel
    Quickest way to do this is go open Finder and press Cmd + Shift + G then enter that path since ~/Library is hidden

  3. Delete the following: machine-info.json, machine-ip.json, and machine.json

  4. Re-open Local

If the steps above do not help, you can try running this command and then repeating those steps.

/Applications/Local\ by\ Flywheel.app/Contents/Resources/extraResources/virtual-machine/vendor/docker/osx/docker-machine rm -f local-by-flywheel

I’m so sorry for the runaround! Fingers crossed this gets you running with Local again.
