What steps can be taken to replicate the issue? Feel free to include screenshots, videos, etc
Attempting to enable Live Link on any website.
System Details
Local Version: 9.2.8
Operating System (OS) and OS version: Mac OSX Tahoe 26.0.1
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.
Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, I am using a variety of dev apps (Docker, nodes, ngrok, others) however, these have by and large been installed well before this issue. That said, I recently installed OpenMTP for Android File Transfers and AnyDroid, but also uninstalled both.
What should I be looking for specifically? Some service or port?
When you updated @KillerDesigner, did you get a prompt about checking whether you are on the Intel or Apple Silicon version of Local? Can you check and see which you’re using?
Not sure which update you’re referring to. For Mac OSX Tahoe, I wasn’t asked, but my system is Intel-based and running fine. I haven’t recently been prompted to update Local, but in my effort to troubleshoot I downloaded local-9.2.8 for Intel, and reinstalled it. Didn’t change anything.
Sorry you can disregard that, I misunderstood an entry I saw in your Local Logs.
Going back to a potential port conflict issue, you could try these steps to investigate that further:
Stop all sites that are running in Local
Force quit Local
(If using Mac) Run the command lsof -nP -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN
What you’ll be looking for here is to see when sites are stopped and Local is properly shut down if there are still programs running on ports 80 and 443. These may be conflicting with Local or the system may be reporting Local is still running.
Once you run that command you should see a list of listening ports. If you see a particular program making use of those ports, you can then kill that process by running sudo kill -9 XXX where XXX is the PID number of that process. (On Windows you will use taskkill /F /pid XXX where XXX is the PID number of that process)
Thanks for the troubleshooting steps. I did all of that - no ports 80 or 443 after steps 1-3. However, after restarting Local, there are multiple instances of nginx using both (see attached). Attempted Live Links with only 1 site running - no deal.
With all of your sites stopped and other apps shut down, if you create a new, blank site in Local and try to enable Live Links for that install does it work @KillerDesigner or give the same error?
We don’t have a bulk export option @KillerDesigner however we do have a simple Export option in the UI to create a zip backup that you could move to your desktop or own Cloud storage as well. It would still have to be done site by site but might actually be faster than using the Cloud option for exporting and importing as long as you have the space.
Once you have everything exported we have some MacOS specific uninstall steps here: Uninstall Local - Local
Then you can manually install the latest version of Local on this link: Releases - Local
Once installed, please restart the computer.
When the computer is restarted and turned on, close any applications that automatically run in the background (AntiVirus, Firewall, and other Developer applications included).
