Starting local machine loop

I’ve downloaded flywheel but just stuck all I’m seeing is 3 dots and nothing is happening.

I’ve attached the log.

Hi @Saqib,

Sorry for the trouble!

It looks like the Docker Machine didn’t install correctly.

Can you please try the following?

  1. Close Local if it’s running
  2. Open VirtualBox. You can search for it using the Start Menu
  3. Right-click on ‘local-by-flywheel’ and completely remove it (remove the files when it asks)
  4. Re-open Local and let it go through the install process. Make sure you answer “Yes” to any prompts that pop up from VirtualBox or Node.js.

Hi @clay

It’s ok, followed your instructions and I’m stuck on “local image”

Attached a screenshot below along with the log

I am having the same issues as Sadiq, Virtual box installs, Host machine installs but has been stuck on local image for over 3 hours. When i check the virtual box logs. I see this error

I have deleted the virtualbox VM file several times and restarted but no success

@Saqib,

Thanks for the screenshot and log!

Can you please open CMD and try running the following commands and provide the output?

C:/Users/CC6/AppData/Local/Programs/local-by-flywheel/resources/extraResources/virtual-machine/vendor/docker/windows/docker-machine.exe start local-by-flywheel
C:/Users/CC6/AppData/Local/Programs/local-by-flywheel/resources/extraResources/virtual-machine/vendor/docker/windows/docker-machine.exe env local-by-flywheel

@mooru,

Sorry for the trouble!

Can you please provide Local’s log? You can find it on Windows by clicking on the menu icon in the top-left of Local’s window and going to Reveal Local’s Log. If you’re on macOS, it’s under Help » Reveal Local’s Log.

Thanks for the response. Find attched the logs

It looks like there’s an NFS conflict. Here’s the error from the log:

Error: Command failed: sh "/Applications/Local by Flywheel.app/Contents/Resources/extraResources/shell-scripts/nfs-configure-mac.sh" "192.168.92.100" "501" "20"
   exports:5: /Users conflicts with existing export /Users/martinoru/Sites/drupal-vm

There are a couple of things you can do.

  1. If you’re still using the drupal-vm site/VM, you can try the following: Local fails to start after reinstalling VirtualBox
  2. If you are NOT using the drupal-vm VM, then you can open /etc/exports in Terminal and edit out the line for that VM and then restart Local.

Yes. I still use drupal-vm. changed the ip address and its all working now. Thank you

Hi there, no such filepath exists

@saqib,

Sorry about that! I used forward slashes instead of backslashes. Can you try these?

C:\Users\CC6\AppData\Local\Programs\local-by-flywheel\resources\extraResources\virtual-machine\vendor\docker\windows\docker-machine.exe start local-by-flywheel
C:\Users\CC6\AppData\Local\Programs\local-by-flywheel\resources\extraResources\virtual-machine\vendor\docker\windows\docker-machine.exe env local-by-flywheel

There isn’t a file called CCG, unless it’s a hidden file

Sorry *CC6

Anyways I deleted local by flywheel again within VirtualBox Manager

And then downloaded again and then a bunch of errors spat out, I’ll attach the screenshot.
