creative job

Clay Griffiths

Hi @creative job, sorry about that! The 64-bit updates for 7.4 and 5.6 weren't pushed out until this morning.

If you go through removing the "lightning-services" directory and kick off another download, you should be good to go. Please let us know if otherwise!

@Clay Griffiths: works perfectly , thank you a lot

This feature is now available in Local 5.3.3 which is available today via the auto-updater: https://localwp.com/community/t/local-5-3-3/19132

@Leon Atkinson: Is this with Local Beta 5.3.2?

If you're using PHP 5.6 or 7.4, you may need to remove the PHP directories in "%AppData%\Local Beta\lightning-services" and let Local redownload 5.6 and 7.4.

Leon Atkinson

@Clay Griffiths: PHP 7.3.5 | Local 5.3.1+3095

should i download another version?

See my post above: "We just released this in Local Beta 5.3.2: https://localwp.com/community/t/local-beta-5-3-2/18959"

@Leon Atkinson: You're making me repeat myself in the same thread 😂

Please join https://localwp.com/community/t/introducing-local-beta-group/15669?u=clay to download Local Beta. Sorry for the confusing error!

Leon Atkinson

@Clay Griffiths: sorry for that - saw it 2sec after (:

Leon Atkinson

@Clay Griffiths: Amazing - after installing Local Beta i managed to import a 3GB All in One file - but still works very slow, should i mark the [xdebug] on the php.ini ?

Hey all, we're now actively working on adding Win64 binaries to our PHP builds.

Thanks for all of the votes and comments!

When will this be out? Waiting desperately for this feature. Please prioritize this one, if possible. Thanks.

For the time being, here's the workaround.
Use Duplicator Pro. It is slightly technical than All in One WP Migration but we can export large backups in Local FlyWheel by using Duplicator.
If you insist on importing All in One WP's backup on your website, then here's what you can do. (This is something I am doing.)
a. Export the backup using Duplicator Pro.
b. Install Xampp. (They offer support for X64 PHP)
c. Import the backup of Duplicator Pro on Xampp local install.
d. Now you can export the backup using All in One WP Migration.
I hope this workaround helps until we get this feature in Local by Flywheel.
