don’t worry, we all do that at some point. lol (i think that was a typo though)
did you create any users on the system other than the “kelly” one we see in the log?

I did not. Im not sure i know how to do that at this point lol

i’m not sure what went wrong here. I haven’t installed fog on a Buster system yet, but i know others have without issue.

@bigmuddyfoot Please take a look at the logs you find in fogproject/bin/error_logs/ and post the last 10 lines here.

@Sebastian-Roth
How do i do that? -

It depends on where the fog installer is, but it would be similar to this.

@Sebastian-Roth : I too am seeing this issue with Debian 10.2.0 running 1.5.7. Here are my log files for you to take a look at. Let me know what I can do to help troubleshoot. I have also tested the dev-branch with the same result.

@LJedi How do you run the installer?
sudo ./installfog.sh? -
@Sebastian-Roth I run it just under the root user.
./installfog.sh -
@LJedi said:
I run it just under the root user.
Ok, that’s correct then. I think I’ve heard another user who had that issue and found that he needed to add a PATH variable for
useraddto be found. On the other hand our daily install testing seems to work great on Debian 10: http://fogtesting.theworkmans.us/I am not saying there is no issue. Just seems like we don’t know what exactly it is yet.
-
@Sebastian-Roth Thank you Sebastian. Anything I can do to help please let me know. For background, this was a clean install of Debian 10.2 that I did today. Tomorrow, I will be doing another install of Debian 10.2 on a different box. I will let you know what the results are.

What happens if you simply run
useraddin the root command shell? -
root@testbebian10:/# useradd bash: useradd: command not found root@testbebian10:/# -
@LJedi Pretty clear. Try
echo PATHand then/sbin/useraddor/usr/sbin/useraddDo you login as root directly or switch user? Which command exactly do you use to switch user?
-
@Sebastian-Roth : I log in as my normal user then use the
suto switch over to the root user.Here is the results:
echo $PATH /sbin/useradd /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games /sbin/useraddecho $PATH /usr/sbin/useradd /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games /usr/sbin/useradd -
@Sebastian-Roth : I fixed it. I needed to do run
su -and that fixed the Path variable that is not set properly. Fog is now installed correctly and theuseraddworked great. This is the page that I found that lead me to the fix.
