Unable to install the "da-cli-114-7582c1a0bd-linux.run" file in my Ubuntu VM. The setup is failing while checking the latest version check.

I have downloaded the latest DAML SDK setup file "da-cli-114-7582c1a0bd-linux.run" and copied the same into my Ubuntu VM through local network connection. When I try to install the .run file, the setup trying to connect to the internet for latest version check. But I am not allowed to use internet in the application servers/VMs. Because of this restriction the setup is getting failed and I am unable to complete the DAML SDK installation.

Is it possible to get the DAML SDK setup as a .tar file? If we have tar file, then it will be easy to complete the setup manually.

Installing the SDK using the .run files in an environment without an internet connection is not easy. It might be possible to install it in an environment with internet and then tar up the folder ~/.da, extract it back into place in the VM and put ~/.da/bin.

However, there is a new SDK assistant in the works (called daml, not da), which can be installed using curl -sSL get.daml.com | sh. If you look at the content of the installation script, you can see that all it really does is downloading a tar-ball from GitHub releases, un-tars it and calls an install.sh script within. That's probably the easier way to get the SDK into an offline environment at this point.

However, the documentation for the new daml assistant is not on docs.daml.com yet. It will be shortly, but in the meantime you can read it on GitHub.
