Demo Sites from Design Cloud on Xampp local host

Hi, I’m using Xampp to create a local host on my desktop. I have my X license installed. I’m trying to download a resource from the Design Cloud, one of the sites. I have updated the config file with the define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘512M’); and restarted Xampp. I have Apache and My Sql running in Xampp. I’m still stuck at the “initializing” stage when trying to download one of the sites from Design Cloud. Any advice?

Hey @ChristieK,

Please try increasing the following server settings to the specified values or larger. Refer to XAMPP’s documentation to learn how to tweak the settings. You could usually do that in php.ini file.

  • max_allowed_packet to 16mb
  • innodb_log_file_size to 128mb
  • upload_max_filesize to 100M
  • post_max_size = 100M
  • max_execution_time = 3000s

If you’re not sure how to tweak the server settings, regretfully, you will need to put your development online or upload your site to an online development server. Most managed WordPress hosts have a development area.

Hope that helps.
