    Description

    Hello,
    I have an error after installing the fog client on my debian machine, here are the logs related:

    I’ve tried to resetting the encryption, reinstall the client, I can also download the certificate manually with a wget command, … but still the same problem.

    A little help would be greatly appreciated,
    Thanks in advance.

          @ttbm said:

          This means that the fog-client does not find the certificate on the client itself. This is usually due to a broken keystore in the mono installation. Can you try using older mono versions on your debian client?

          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

            Thanks for your reply, I tried with 2 different versions of mono but still the same, except that now the file “fog.log” remains empty, however this is what we can find in the file SmartInstaller.log :

              @ttbm I’ve just tried the fog-client on Debian 8 and it worked nicely. Here is a mono package list (including the versions) from that test system:

              dpkg -l | grep "ii  mono"
              ii  mono-4.0-gac                                                3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          Mono GAC tool (for CLI 4.0)
              ii  mono-4.0-service                                            3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          Mono service manager for CLI 4.0
              ii  mono-csharp-shell                                           3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          interactive C# shell
              ii  mono-devel                                                  3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          Mono development tools
              ii  mono-gac                                                    3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          Mono GAC tool
              ii  mono-mcs                                                    3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          Mono C# 2.0 / 3.0 / 4.0 / 5.0  compiler for CLI 2.0 / 4.0 / 4.5
              ii  mono-runtime                                                3.2.8+dfsg-10                        amd64        Mono runtime - default version
              ii  mono-runtime-common                                         3.2.8+dfsg-10                        amd64        Mono runtime - common files
              ii  mono-runtime-sgen                                           3.2.8+dfsg-10                        amd64        Mono runtime - SGen
              ii  mono-xbuild                                                 3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          MSBuild-compatible build system for Mono
              ii  monodevelop                                                 4.0.12+dfsg-6                        all          Development Environment for GNOME
              ii  monodoc-base                                                3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          shared MonoDoc binaries
              ii  monodoc-manual                                              3.2.8+dfsg-10                        all          compiled XML documentation from the Mono project
              

              If you don’t see anything in fog.log then run journalctl -u FOGService -f -n 50 while doing a stop/start (service FOGService stop; service FOGService start) in another terminal window.

              Post output here for us to check. I suspect you see something like mono-service: command not found. In case you see this, install debian package mono-4.0-service and you should be up and running.

              Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
