Installing Moodle

I downloaded Moodle4Mac-38.dmg and tried to install. I get a permissions error early in the install process "operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items"

I am also getting malware alerts from my Sophos virus which are related to the attempted install.

Please advise....

I've never used it, but the documentation (https://docs.moodle.org/38/en/Installation_Package_for_OS_X) only mentions support for MacOS up to El Capitan which, of course, was a long time ago. I doubt that's true, but I would drop the maintainer, Ralf Krause, a message - https://moodle.org/user/profile.php?id=70180

My guess is that your Sophos virus software is too sensitive to things and might need to be disabled until you are finished installing Moodle.

I gave a presentation at last year's GlobalMoot about how I install a local sandbox Moodle on my Mac.  I choose to do a MAMP+Moodle install because at that time, I was having problems with the Moodle4Mac product.

Here is a link to some resources that I made available, including a video.
