LocalWP – WordPress can not make requests to itself from 192.168.0.7

[ad_1]

I have a site setup on LocalWP and I attempted to generate static files with this plugin. It would make the Zip but when I would download it the Zip was empty. I checked the diagnostics tool and the one error I saw said “WordPress can not make requests to itself from 192.168.0.7” I tried looking around the web and I saw a post on the LocalWPs community that said to make sure 127.0.0.1 your.domain.com into my /etc/hosts file. That was already done by LocalWP so I am not sure what to do from here.

I will say that my error does mention my computer’s LAN IP address and not the 127.0.0.1 address I saw in some of the errors I saw on the web. I am not sure if that has anything to do with it but I can confirm that the below message is already in the Host file.

## Local - Start ##
::1 test-harness.local #Local Site
127.0.0.1 test-harness.local #Local Site
::1 www.test-harness.local #Local Site
127.0.0.1 www.test-harness.local #Local Site
## Local - End ##
