Hi @fel01

So you get a 404 even when you create a new, blank site and try to open it up?

What happens if you change your Router Mode to Site Domains?

Preferences\>Advanced\>Router Mode

Hello @Nick-B good day

Yes, create new. Everyone fails again and again

Its correct,

- Preferences\>Advanced\>Router Mode = localhost
- Preferences\>Advanced\>Router Mode = Site Domains

In both it fails

Do you have any antivirus, security, or firewall applications that could be blocking Local? It looks like from the log it might be having trouble connecting.

More details about troubleshooting this here: [Router Mode](https://localwp.com/help-docs/advanced/router-mode/)

Are you running other developer applications simultaneously? That could also cause similar issues. Apps like MAMP, XAMPP, or Docker for example.

Hi @Nick-B

Uninstall the antivirus.

The other tools I only use docker and I have it turned off.

Additionally, I attach an image of how port 80 is, which is not being used at all and even so, it still does not work.

I tried several browsers to validate and none of them work.

In order to refresh here and start with a clean slate could you give the below troubleshooting steps a try?

- Export any sites that you have on Local and save them to a folder somewhere on your computer.

- [Fully uninstall Local from your computer.](https://localwp.com/help-docs/troubleshooting/uninstalling-local/)

- Install the latest version of Local on this [link.](https://localwp.com/releases/)

- Once installed, please restart the computer.

- When the computer is restarted and turned on, close any applications that automatically run in the background (AntiVirus, Firewall, and other Developer applications included).

- Check and see if the issue still persists. If so, please provide us with an updated log. [Retrieving Local’s Log File](https://localwp.com/help-docs/troubleshooting/retrieving-locals-log-file/)

Keep us posted and we’d be happy to help further!
