I just updated Local by Flywheel and am getting the “Uh-oh! Could not update hosts file” error message.
I looked through other people’s posts, but am not sure how to fix this. I am on a Mac OS, and do not have virus software running.
The output I get from ls -la /etc/hosts is:
-rw-r–r-- 1 root wheel 1641 Apr 5 15:51 /etc/hosts
What do I need to do to fix this problem? I do not have antiviurs or firewall running.
Hi,
I am getting Pre-type create error.
Here is the log file for further reference.
