Not working After the UPDATE (site.local refused to connect)

Hi,
I am having trouble after the update. my sites are not working. (it says site.local refused to connect.).

I also updated the virtual machine manually. restarted my pc multiple times.
please help thank you !

Experiencing this problem too after updating to 3.0.2. (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

The last line of the log file is disconcerting: ‘Error: This does not seem to be a WordPress install.\nPass --path=path/to/wordpress or run wp core download.’

Local is basically DOA.

I was able to fix Local not working by uninstalling 3.0.2 and installing 2.4.6.

Glad I kept a previous version around.

Have you tried switching web servers? Back and forth between Apache and nginx?

I had to uninstall the flywheel, and then installation.
so it’s working fine now.
