Stuck in Startup

The Local UI won’t start up. Stuck in startup / ellipsis mode. Both updated version and previous.

Hi @staeven,

Sorry for the trouble!

Can you try accessing Help » Restart Local’s Machine? If that doesn’t help, can you go to Help » Reveal Local’s Log and then provide the log here?

Hi Clay - I am also experiencing this in my Mac instance. I did not choose to do the upgrade when prompted as I had read a previous users issue where his sites were blown away when upgrading. I wanted to start with the version, run a backup/export, then run the upgrade in case all hell broke loose during the upgrade process. I can’t even get the old version to start though.

Restarting the local machine as you suggested was not successful. I am pasting Local Machine log for today per your request:

Hi Kurt,

Sorry for the trouble!

Can you please try the following?

  1. Quit Local
  2. Open /Applications/VirtualBox.app
  3. Right-click on local-by-flywheel (or pressmatic) and go to “Reset” (synonymous with reboot, restart, etc)
  4. Re-open Local

Excellent - that worked great, Clay - much appreciated. I was able to follow this to get back up and running so I could make an export before the upgrade. I also discovered that the VirtualBox needed to be updated as well so I did that too. I’m all set on the new version of Local now. Thanks again.
