localhost version redirecting to wp-signup.php

Hi

I have a wordpress site running on localhost (Or had) and also on a remote dev server. Been a while since I last looekd at it and tried to get onto the localhost version but kept getting forwarded to ‘http://mysite-multisite.localhost/wp-signup.php?new=mysite-multisite.localhost’

This is a multisite by the way.

So I did some searching and tried a few things suggested in various places, there are:

1. Added the line
define('NOBLOGREDIRECT', 'http://mysite-multisite.localhost/' );
but to no avail.

2. I tried disabling the plugins by renaming the plugin folder, no change.

3. My remote version is working 100%. So I cloned the site and the database. Then changed the URLs within wp-config.php and also within the database options table. This also didnt help.

4. Tried copying the physical files from my remote (Was grasping at straws at this point)

5. I have checked the .htaccess file for any inconsistancies.

6. Checked the conf file, all is good. I even went so far as to recreate the localhost using a different url but this is still redirecting.

7. User registration in the database options table is set to ‘0’

Any other things I might try?
