      you start to break your own “Highly Secure” layout

      High physical security or high ICT computer security not necessarily the same thing.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

        Okay,

        just to make it hopefully more clear. ! 0_1500915821660_Untitled Diagram.jpg

        Of course it’s not a shopping mall. The Customers offer different services. You can imagine it like a self-service ticket station in a train station.

        The network itself is high-security.

          Hi all,

          so now it’s getting serious. We are trying to implent FOG in our System. Therefore i am installing a reference system. The system is running on a ESXi Host. I have installed CentOS, but now i am stuck with the installation.

          https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=CentOS_7
          Here is written:
          for service in http https tftp ftp mysql nfs mountd rpc-bind proxy-dhcp samba; do firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=$service;

          What does this mean and how do i do it? Because its not a command.
          Can i disable firewalld? Because we are behind of a DMZ.

          Kind regards
          Denny

              @eadhor Yeah right, it’s bash. Keep going and let us know when you need help. Pay attention to disabling SELinux as that can cause you a major problem if you don’t know how to handle it.

              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)

                I made a stupid mistake.

                I have started the installation. Went really well, but when this appeared: * Changing permissions on apache log files…OK

                • Backing up database…OK

                • You still need to install/update your database schema.

                • This can be done by opening a web browser and going to:

                  http://139.2.247.233/fog/management

                • Press [Enter] key when database is updated/installed.^C

                I wanted to copy the http adress and pressed cmd + c which aborted the installation.

                So i thought i could start the installation all over again, but when i reach this point i get an error message:

                • Changing permissions on apache log files…OK
                • Backing up database…Failed!

                How can i handle this?

                  @eadhor Try to open that URL http://139.2.247.233/fog/management and I guess you’ll see a error page. Then take a look at the apache error log (see my signature on where to find this). Post what you have in the apache log here.

                  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)

                    I have made a snapshot before the installation and tried to install it again. Now i am a this point:

                    • Changing permissions on apache log files…OK

                    • Backing up database…OK

                    • You still need to install/update your database schema.

                    • This can be done by opening a web browser and going to:

                    • Press [Enter] key when database is updated/installed.

                    But i still see nothin on the page. So above is the error.log

                      @eadhor Have you ever set a password for the database? Try connecting to the DB on the command line:

                      shell> mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
...
mysql> exit;

                      See if you can login. If you got the credentials please see if they match with those in /var/www/fog/lib/fog/config.class.php

                      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)

                        Oh i think thats the Problem. I thaught i have to give an initial passwort during the installation. When i try to use mysql like this: mysql -u root -> i can log in
                        when i use the password which is in

                        define(‘DATABASE_PASSWORD’, “XXXXX”);

                        i have no access.
                        How shout it look without a password?

                        define(‘DATABASE_PASSWORD’, “”);

                        Kind regards

                          @eadhor Be sure to set the database username and password inside of /opt/fog/.fogsettings or you’re bound to break stuff later on when you upgrade (promise).

                          Change settings for fog inside of the fogsettings file, then re-run the installer for those settings to take effect. Here’s documentation about the file:
                          https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=.fogsettings

                          The settings you need to change are these:

                          snmysqluser=''
snmysqlpass=''

                          Put the correct values into them, save, then re-run the installer.

                            Hey,
                            i have changed /opt/fog/.fogsettings

                            snmysqluser='root'
snmysqlpass=''

                            and re-run the installer. But i got the error again.

                             * Changing permissions on apache log files....................OK
 * Backing up database.........................................Failed!

                            Server is up and running so far, but i get the problem with the updates 😉 Like i have said, there is no database password.

                              @eadhor Check your free space with df -h look for partitions that are 100% or 99% full.

                              Also, inside of /opt/fog/.fogsettings set snmysqlhost to these two things, one at a time: localhost and 127.0.0.1 Running the installer after each to see if the setting works.

                                And here ist my next question.

                                We have an existing DHCP-Server. What informations do i have to provide to the sysadmin? He wants to add a DHCP-Group for the two Clients.

                                Can i take an image of an existing Virtual Machine? If so. How?

                                Kind regards

                                As far as i know, he needs the following information:
                                next-serve (FOG-Server IP?)
                                filename??

                                    @eadhor Wherever you keep your fogproject directory, go there, then go into bin and do a -ls -laht you should see a new directory in there for errors and such. In there, there will be an output file from the fog installer. We need the last 20 or so lines from that output file, that should tell us what’s going wrong.

                                        @eadhor Looks like proxy issues? I don’t speak whatever that language is, but I do see a 403 Forbidden.

                                          Yes should be Proxy Issues. It’s german 😉
                                          When “waiting for an answer” i get an 403 error.

                                            Okay. Solved the Database Error.

                                            I have added the wgetrc:

                                            no_proxy = localhost, 127.0.0.0/8, IP of the FOG Server
