Was on a plane and ready to commit 7 hours to working on a site but discovered that the install program checks for an internet connection and won't install without it. Is there a way to have a local installation using MAMP without internet?

Hi IronVictory,

That code is suppose to be helpful but obviously not so in this case. Once installed it should be fine so some options would be to:

1) Set isInstalled = 1 (and other program settings) in the /data/settings.dat.php file

2) Disable the code that checks for internet access in /lib/init.php. Search for displaySocketErrors and add the code in red:

function displaySocketErrors() {
return;


Hope that helps!
