Hey Everyone. I hve fog .32 running on ubuntu 11.10.
I get the following error when I try to start a task:
[SIZE=16px][FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#ff0000][CENTER]Failed to create deploy task[/CENTER][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=16px][FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#ff0000][CENTER]FOGFTP: Login failed. Host: 192.168.70.81, Username: fog, Password: mypassword, Error: ftp_login(): Login incorrect.[/CENTER][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]

[LEFT][SIZE=16px][FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#ff0000][SIZE=13px][FONT=Tahoma][COLOR=#141414] I dont know why I am getting this. I have checked the FTP_Username and FTP_Password in the config file. It matches what is in the Storage Management settings in the FOG web interface too.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/LEFT]

I had a similar issue with my fog server when I moved it from a VM to a real box. The issue I had was that when uploading an image it would do the upload but not move it over to /images/. I found that changing the fogstorage user over to an account on the system that had access to the files via ftp worked. I had my password correct too but it just wouldnt take it for some reason.
Anyway, I dont think there are any security vulnerabilities doing it this way, just hope this helps with your problem.

Ok, so I created a new ftp user called fogstorage. I changed all my settings in the correct places. Now I get this error.

Usually this problem happens because you created a “fog” user on the system before installing FOG. Did you do this?
-
I did not. I installed ubuntu, then downloaded and ran the fog installation. Is there a way to fix the fog user issue?
-
There is a wiki article about changing the password for the fog user.

Alright, so I found the wiki and reset the password, but I am still getting the same error as above. Any other reasons why this would happen?
