wp-admin doesn't work without internet

[cpapazoglou]

While the frontpage of wordpress loads without internet, /wp-admin seems that it needs an internet connection. Without it, loading fails and the server gets killed.

Steps to reproduce

• In an empty folder run wp-now start so that wordpress gets downloaded
• Disable internet in your machine ( eg turn wifi off )
• Go to /wp-admin
• ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED, localhost refused to connect.
• The localhost server gets killed.

Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND api.wordpress.org
    at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (node:dns:71:26) {
  errno: -3008,
  code: 'ENOTFOUND',
  syscall: 'getaddrinfo',
  hostname: 'api.wordpress.org'
}

I think php-wasm will need to be updated for this scenario. Let's continue the conversation in the first issue.
