I downloaded the latest version and tried to get fiskerinc.com (it’s a 443mb size site) through WP Engine. No luck. Same “Uh oh!” message. Here’s what I got in the app.
I’m getting the same errors and logs as the rest. I’m on windows 10. As @joejoedev mentioned, there was NO WAY that this merge was integrated correctly or tested. Can we get an update? I’m starting to get a bad taste in my mouth. Please advise before all hair is gone.
Here’s the error I’m getting.
Error message on frontend if I try to access anyways:

Downloaded latest version of Local 5.2.5 and having the same issue as others. Trying to pull a site down to Local from WP Engine and it craps out about 15 mins into the process with the “Opps” message. Using Windows 10.
Here’s the error in the log file:
{"thread":"main","class":"DevKitService","message":"Error: autoload.sql not found for site\n at DevKitService.<anonymous> (C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Local\\resources\\app.asar\\main\\devkit\\DevKitService.js:1:14174)\n at Generator.next (<anonymous>)\n at _0x5e9878 (C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Local\\resources\\app.asar\\main\\devkit\\DevKitService.js:1:3070)","level":"error","timestamp":"2020-02-27T02:47:13.562Z"}
Just thought I would update you all on my current “work around” for this issue.
My current workflow goes like this:
Pull a new site from WPE and wait for it too fail.
Now that I have the site in my ‘Local’, I do another pull, including the database (9/10 this pull will succeed). If it fails, then do another pull.
The site should now be working, however if you are getting a bunch of debug error messages, then you need to head into the WP-config file and add in:
define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, false );
I added it in after the database prefix section. This should hide those errors.
If you find that the media library isn’t working, then you need to head over to WPE, create a backup and download said backup. Then just replace the ‘uploads’ folder in your local with the one downloaded from WPE.
It would be nice if I could just hit the pull button and forget about it, but this process works for me as a workaround at the moment.

Will replicate first thing when I arrive at work. Thank you, @joe1.
I needed to add this as the single DEBUG=false did not work for me:
ini_set ( 'display_errors' , 'Off' );
ini_set ( 'error_reporting' , E_ALL );
define( 'WP_DEBUG' , false);
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY' , false);
Had the same issue on Local 5.2.5 pulling a new Wordpress install from WPEngine with standard wp_ table prefixes.
Workaround for me was to manually add a wp-config.php file with DB connections to localhost, manually importing the autoload.sql file in “ADMINER” and defining WP_HOME & WP_SITEURL to my local URL.
Experiencing the same issue with Local 5.2.5 on macOS Catalina
Same Issue here using Local 5.2.5 for Mac OS on Catalina 10.15.3 Mac Mini 64GB RAM from my WPEngine Production Environment.
Have a Support ticket with WPEngine and they indicate a Local App update is in the works
Just tried this again with Catalina 10.15.3 and Local 5.2.5 and IT WORKS! No additional configuration needed.
First time Local user here but I get the same issue 
I’m using Local 5.2.5 on macOS 10.15.3.
The site is on WPEngine and is just over 1GB total size.
First time Local user as well. Trying to pull a 3.2GB site using Local 5.2.5 on Windows 10 and getting the same result after multiple pull attempts. Installing locally seems to work.
Pulling from wp LiveSite, results in two scenerios…
- include the DB (using checkmark box in localWP)
- w/out the DB (no checkmark box)
Result
When imported w/out DB import checked, received a successful import message in localWP app, but still an error navigating to the local site
Error Indicators
- autoload sql
- wordfence in wp-content/pear for PHP
any help with this?
already tried whitelisting localWP app
changing Site domain scheme in localWP from domains and local
My pull never finished. I left it running for 24 hours and it didn’t complete the initial download/pull process so I bailed. I’ll have to give it another try soon but this specific instance has never pulled for me yet across multiple tries (which got beyond this step before failing to import the DB)

Same here, the pull never finish. Seeing the Resource Monitor on Windows, the Local.exe connection disappears after ~1 min (but Local still says it is pulling).
Do you have any workaround?
Oh, just now I saw local doesn’t support multisite yet. Hope this feature gets ready soon!
I’m having the same issues. Can the Flywheel team please give us an update on this? Basically, it seems pulling from WP-Engine doesn’t work at all.
Same or similar issue. Pulling from WP Engine fails. Error message in local-lightning.log:

table_prefix is set correctly (‘wp_’) in wp-config.php.
This only stopped working with the update to 5.6.3+4720.
Hey everyone, there’s been a number of releases of Local since this topic was originally opened in February:
I know that the description of this is pretty generic, so we may not have solved all of the issues pulling from WP Engine, but I’d love to hear if some of you are having a better experience with the latest version of Local!
