Hello again, all! In a recent exchange, on 9 Dec. 2019, at 07:05, Franz Dietrich wrote: It is quite possible but a lot of work... I think it would be easier to

carry the server to an internet access install and setup everything then bring it back to where it is supposed to run.

because else the source code is only the first bit. You are needing all the dependencies like SQL, PHP, etc. In addition to that you need all development packages if you are building from source.

So if it must be without internet I would setup a similar ubuntu with internet access and install koha on it carefully noting everything that has been installed and then download all those packages manually transfer them to the server and install them there. - but still it is rather unlikely that you will manage to install the server without internet in case of problems (especially since this seems to be your first koha install).

Another variant would be to create a virtual machine on a computer with internet. Setup everything on the virtual machine and then transfer the virtual machine to the target.

I was afraid of that. It is my first installation of Koha and it's my first substantive use of a Linux environment. In the last several months, I have installed Koha on virtual boxes through the package installer. The installation to run, of course, but I can't quite figure out how to copy it from one Linux environment to another. That's the trouble when one is used to strickly GUIs over terminals, I suppose. Again from Franz Dietrich: hope that helps. Yes, it does. Many thanks. -- -- Charles.
