Does not work with local installs

Hi @foxrobinson,
I have no plans to ever test with XAMPP but possibly Local.

I edited my last response because I see you posted the error.. Can you tell me if an image exists in uploads/instant-images/ directory?

Cheers,

Hi there,

Thanks for the reply. There is a file there for each of my import attempts but it is 0 bytes in size.

Thanks.
I installed Local and wow, it’s amazing. Wish I tried it before.

Looks like the issue cURL related. I’m post on the community forums to see if it’s solvable.

Ok, this post on the forums worked for me.

In Local, right click the site name, and ‘Open Site SSH’. Then run those commands.
Magic!

Yes Local is awesome, amazing that its free. Yep that worked and I can now import images correctly. Thanks for your help.

Regards,

David
