Plans for High Sierra support?

Support
1

I see that 2.06 is not supported on High Sierra. That’s fine, it’s beta. However I’d like to plan for the fall - is the intent to have the Mac version support HS when it’s released? If so, is there a beta program for this?

Hi Rick,

We’re keeping our eyes on High Sierra and our dependencies (Docker, VirtualBox, etc) for changes regarding HS. As soon as we’re able, we’ll release an update for Local to improve HS support.

If we do run a beta for HS we’ll keep you in mind :slight_smile:

Thanks Clay. It won’t kill me to wait a week or two to upgrade to HS but a
couple of months would be problematic. Be happy to run beta Local if you do
one for HS.

Me too. I was working on a site and even though I’ve transferred the files to another computer with Local on it, it’s not coming up. Hoping that when you have a High Sierra version of Local I can try that and see if I can recover this work. It’s odd because all the files seem to be there in the APP directory (actually I transferred all the site files to the other machine), and I’ve gotten to the point where the theme I installed and the child theme are there but not the specific pages I built. Anyway, would love to get a High Sierra beta copy as well. :slight_smile:

any update?
MailHog works just not the site itself :confused:

Hi @quasel,

High Sierra is our top priority at the moment! We should have an update soon that fixes the issues with High Sierra :slight_smile:

Is there any news on a timescale to support MacOS High Sierra?

Release date for 10.13 has been announced as Sept. 25th.

Could we please at least get a detail status update?

I understand you have a lot of upstream packages that need to support 10.13, APFS and networking changes, but being completely in the dark as to what “soon” and “the issues” actually mean and how close to being ready you are doesn’t make me a happy customer.

See - [High Sierra] Local Sites Refusing to Connect (Local 2.0.6)
I hope it’s not to close :confused: - can’t wait ^^

Thank you Quasel I hadn’t seen that but it’s encouraging. With a week left before 10.13 sure would be nice to see a beta of Local with “all the issues fix”.

the hope dies last :wink:

Just upgraded to High Sierra today and update to 2.0.8, and all I’m seeing is the “Starting Local Machine” loading screen indefinitely. Not sure if anyone else is running into issues or just me, but I figured I’d post here to get a feel from the community.

EDIT: Appears as though something stopped working with VirtualBox, so I just reinstalled it and removed the Flywheel machine. Seems to be working fine now, so false alarm!

I have the same problem here.

Hi Ian,

Sorry for the trouble!

Can you please try the following?

  1. Close Local if it’s running
  2. Open VirtualBox.app
  3. Right-click on local-by-flywheel and go to Close » Power Off
  4. Re-open Local

Clay,

Close is greyed out and not available.
local-by-flywheel reads Aborted if I double click it and try to close the VM I get the following error

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine local-by-flywheel.

The VM session was closed before any attempt to power it on.

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: SessionMachine
Interface: ISession {7844aa05-b02e-4cdd-a04f-ade4a762e6b7}

If I try to power it back on I get the following error:

Could not start the machine local-by-flywheel because the following physical network interfaces were not found:

vboxnet0 (adapter 2)

You can either change the machine’s network settings or stop the machine.
