Local 5.0.6+976 - Can't set hosts info on Windows 10

Support
,
1

Got a suggestion from support to try the beta, but don’t work for me.

To replicate:

  1. download and install (Windows) Releases - Local
  2. install on different folder then suggested (option “anyone uses this computer”), since I wanted to put it in a folder named “beta”.
  3. login in to flywheel (have teams so I selected my organization)
  4. change preferenses for admin email and site paths (to put beta sites in separate folder)
  5. select local sites
  6. create a new site, default settings

During site creation this popped up:
image
(Uh-oh Could not update hosts file. Local ran into an EPERM error when trying to update the hosts file. Pleas ensure that the hosts file is no set to read-only and/or locked by antivirus.)

and then a warning banner in local saying “Missing hosts entry…”

Clicking [FIX IT] produces same “Uh-oh” as above)

I have done nothing with the host file and/or virus software, and it works fine with 3.3.0.

So I wont try this new local until alpha/rc again, pleas tell your support staff not to recommend this until it is stable :wink:

Kind regards
Håkan

Any updates on this 3 months old post?

I get the same no matter what i try on Win 10. Local (beta) 5.0.6

Can only find info regarding turning of “read only” and make exeption in kaspersky which i have done. also turned off the firewall in desperation, but still the same result.

3

It was the mailhog.exe and nginx.exe that was preventing the EPERM error in kaspersky, not the firewal or local.exe permission

4

swithched it all off off and it worked, but had to approve the certificates in win defender after kaspersky was turned off. Switched it back on after hosts was ok
