Issue Summary
I spun up a brand new site with PHP 8.0.0. The site appears to be operational and the admin behaves properly but the Local UI does not: the Admin and Open Site buttons in the top right do nothing and neither does the Adminer link in the Database tab. Also, all wp db commands fail with a message similar to (below is the result of wp db check):
‘“mysqlcheck “local” --check --default-character-set=“utf8” --user=“root” --host=“localhost””’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Troubleshooting Questions
-
Does this happen for all sites in Local, or just one in particular?
This happens to any site that I switch over to PHP 8.0.0. If i switch it back to 7 everything returns to normal. -
Are you able to create a new, plain WordPress site in Local and access it in a Browser?
Yes, the site appears just fine.
Replication
Describe the steps that others can take to replicate this issue. If you have screenshots that can help clarify what is happening, please include them!
Install Local, create a new site with PHP8.0.0/Apache/MySQL8. Observe the issues described above.
System Details

Which version of Local is being used?
6.3.1+5826 -
What Operating System (OS) and OS version is being used?
Windows 10 -
