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.

Sorry you ran into this, @pawan.

Local currently requires Rosetta to work on Apple Silicon chips. Install it from the Terminal like this:

softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license

Then restart Local and create a new site.

We’re making progress on a fully Apple Silicon native version of Local, outlined here.
