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 there @edroofmaker!

It looks like Rocky Linux 9.7 only supports up to Glibc 2.34 which is why you’re getting that error message complaining about GLIBC_2.35' not found. To get around this, you can try creating a Local Custom installation, instead of using the Preferred option, and change the PHP version to 8.1.23 or lower.

Another workaround would be to download an older version of Local like 7.2.1 here:

I tried Local 7.2.1, and it now works. Thanks!

Glad to hear it @edroofmaker! Thank you for letting us know
