Ubuntu 21.04: FOG 1.5.9.68 was working then I tried updating to fog dev branch 1.5.9.73 failed... Why is FOG looking for and trying to install PHP 7.1? Please help error log inside.

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 21.04 everything was great then I tried to update to 1.5.9.73 from 1.5.9.68 but got these error messages about php. Now I can not access the fog web management. It just displays the php code. I can’t pxe boot either.

Why is FOG looking for and trying to install PHP 7.1? Isn’t that really old?

When I ran $ php -version shows PHP 7.4.16 (cli)

When I try to upgrade FOG again it removes php and apache and tries to reinstall them but the same error occurs.

I would suggest sticking to the Ubuntu LTS versions for use with FOG. I test the latest LTS versions daily (results in my signature). It may be that this version of PHP isn’t available for Ubuntu 21.04. Also, to update FOG you really need to have internet access too.

@wayne-workman

Thanks. I do have Internet access and have been updating FOG dev branch every time a new version is released. PHP 7.1 packages are not available on 21.04. I just think it is odd that it is looking for 7.1.

@Fog_Newb Thanks for reporting. I just pushed a fix (1.5.9.74).

Thank you.

There was one error during the upgrade process but it completed.

• Installing package: php7.4-mysql…Failed! (Will try later)

Everything seems to be working so far. copied over the inits for dual NVMe and I was able to capture an image without any problems.

@Fog_Newb Thanks for the quick test and reply! Would you mind re-running the FOG installer (no git pull) to see if that error on php7.4-mysql was just a hickup?

@sebastian-roth

It was just a hiccup. Running the installer again without git pull there weren’t any errors.
