Security Reminder

Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however thereā€™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 isnā€™t private info like passwords being displayed.

Me and a friend (two different set-ups) also experience this problem. I think itā€™s something global.

I am getting a similar error on Mac 12.4 Local 6.4.2:

Uh-oh! Could not start Live Link.
Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 34.121.54.145:443 at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (not.js:1146:16)

I hadnā€™t tried it until about 20 minutes ago for the first time in a while, not sure if it would have worked this morning or not.

Hi all! Thank you for bringing this to our attention so quickly - I merged several different threads in the forums into here so that we keep conversation in the same place.

This is an initial ā€œACKā€ to the issue. It looks like something changed on our remote infrastructure sometime this morning that started refusing connections.

The engineering team is on it, and I will post updates back here as I have them.

Updating here - weā€™re digging into some errors in our remote infrastructure that show the connection being refused. Based on the documentation, we think the issue lies in the API between Local and the remote server, but we havenā€™t pinpointed it yet. Weā€™re going to keep researching.

Sorry in advance for the down-time here! I understand the frustration.

Hello, Iā€™ve a problem with starting Live Links. It started yesterday and when I click on Enable after 1 or 2 minutes, Local give me this error. It happens on all of my website installed. My connection works very well and I canā€™t figure out where is the problem. Someone can tell me something about and how to fix this?

I think itā€™s due to an expired SSL certificate as thereā€™s a closed topic about a similar issue from last September.

This is the error Iā€™m getting.

Hey all - weā€™ve worked with our remote infrastructure partner (Google), and traced the issue to a mismatch in some API versioning. Weā€™re getting this fixed up and should have an update here shortly.
