I have used Moodle as an instructor for an organization that hosted the moodle server. That organization is shifting away from the moodle platform, so I need to "park" my existing moodle class/back up on my own computer. I have a mac computer, and I have downloaded moodle from the link on the moodle.org site, and I have dropped the MMAP folder to my Applications folder as instructed here: https://docs.moodle.org/39/en/Installation_Package_for_OS_X , but when I proceed to the next step in the installation instructions, which is "Step 5: Double click the MAMP icon to start the server," I get the following error message: “MAMP” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.
macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware. Chrome downloaded this file today at 7:13 PM from download.moodle.org."
It is unclear to me how to proceed. (And again, the only reason I'm going through all of this is so that I can have a way to "park" the back up of my class site, so I don't lose all of the work I've put into building this class. I'm not currently planning to "run" a class from my own server, but I do want to visually check/verify that the backup that I've made is a functional backup that I could use in the future--via Moodle Cloud, or via another host organization that uses Moodle, etc). Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Dawn Prochovnic
