Problem accessing a second site's Local URL

raglan · December 19, 2016, 4:43pm

Hi all,

I set up my first site in Local last week and have been working on it without any problems. Today I created a second site, and while Local says it was set up successfully, I am unable to access it in my browser—when I try to access it using its .dev URL, I get forwarded to my first site’s .dev URL. To try and fix this, I stopped my first site and restarted my second site, to no avail. I quit and re-opened Local, restarted the local machine, and have deleted and re-created the second site numerous times, using different Environment settings each time, and nothing works.

First site (works fine):
isola.dev
WordPress 4.7
PHP 5.6.20
Apache
MySQL 5.6

Second site (forwards to first site in browser):
mv-skate-park.dev
WordPress 4.7
PHP 5.6.20
nginx
MySQL 5.6.34

I have Local 1.3.0 and OS X 10.11.6. Any suggestions?

Sorry for the trouble!

Is the second site an export that you imported, Blueprint, or Clone?

raglan · December 19, 2016, 5:01pm

Both are sites I created in Local. For the first site I brought in a theme I’m working on and imported my database (have been using MAMP for years.) For the second site I would like to do the same, but I get the redirection problems before doing anything to the second site, it’s just a fresh install done by Local.

clay · December 19, 2016, 6:39pm

Can you go ahead and delete that second site and try adding a new site?

raglan · December 19, 2016, 10:07pm

Done. Same problem. I used the default site settings.

clay · December 19, 2016, 11:22pm

Can you go ahead and provide the log file for Local? You can find it under Help » Reveal Local’s Log. Feel free to only provide the log entries for the last day.

I am having the same issue, same setup. Will keep an eye on solutions.

clay · December 20, 2016, 3:26pm

@raglan

Everything looks good in the log file at first glance.

Very sorry for the trouble!

Can you please zip up the conf directory for the site you’re having trouble with as well as ~/Library/Application Support/Local by Flywheel/router/ and e-mail it to clay@getflywheel.com?

@oaklandunited feel free to send me those zips as well as your .log as well

Hi!

Sorry I’m using this thread… I have the same issue and I was wondering if you guys reached any solution.

I set up a new Wordpress website and worked in it for a bit. All great there.

Then I set up a second website from scratch in Local, it seem it installed good, but when I went to “admin” or “view site” I realised it only loads the firs site I created. If I manually type

second-webiste.com/wp-admin/

automatically goes to the first website I created.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Carmila · December 31, 2016, 4:47am

Actually I just understood what happened. I’m going to leave my solution here for future references.

When creating a new local site, under Wordpress settings, the last option is “Admin E-mail”.

Before, I was typing there my email address. This time I left it untouched with the default email address dev-email@flywheel.local and the second and third sites have been successful created with no issues, thank you.

raglan · January 5, 2017, 8:18pm

Neither ryan nor Carmilla’s fixes work for me

raglan · January 20, 2017, 10:57pm

@clay any update on this issue? Thanks

jpize · January 28, 2017, 6:05pm

Hello, I’m having the same issue. I’ve created a new site ‘Site 2’ via a Blueprint based on ‘Site 1’. While trying to log into ‘Site 2’ via the LbF I am redirected to the admin portal for ‘Site 1’. Any thoughts?

clay · February 1, 2017, 8:56pm

@jpize

Have you tried restarting the second site?

@raglan

Still looking for the underlying cause. It seems to be a race condition but it’s hard to pin point

jpize · February 1, 2017, 9:18pm

Thanks for the reply. I’ve tried restarting it and switching internet connections. I’ve also deleted the Blueprint and made a new one at least 5 times. I’m wondering if it’s in a setting within the install?

clay · February 2, 2017, 5:12pm

Just to clarify, it doesn’t redirect you to Site 1 on the front end?

Was this a fresh site in Local that you created a Blueprint from or was it an existing site that you brought into Local then created a Blueprint from?

jpize · February 2, 2017, 9:52pm

Good questions.

I’m not totally sure what you meant by “redirect you to Site 1 on the front end”. When I create a new site from the blueprint first, it hangs forever on “Provisioning WP-CLI” and I have to quite Local and restart. Upon restart the new site shows up. Then when I click on the Go to Admin button it takes me to the WP admin for the site the blueprint was based on. Does this makes sense?
It was a site I built in Local first.

Thanks,
Justin

raglan · May 1, 2017, 2:42am

So after taking a couple months off from using Local by Flywheel I fired it back up and created a new site, and at first it had the same problem of redirecting to the old site but a simple restart of the new site and command-option-E in Safari to empty caches fixed it. To be clear, that’s exactly what I tried before to no avail. Dunno what changed. Since then i’ve found I usually have to do the restart+empty cache thing with every new site I create, except tonight I made a site (from a Blueprint, not sure that matters) and I didn’t have to do anything, it worked right off the bat
