FOG on new server and moving the SSL certs, reinstall fails

[Chris Whiteley]

I just migrated a FOG installation from Ubuntu to CentOS 7 as I feel it has been more stable for me and I did the instructions here that say you need to move the old SSL certs over and then re-run the installer (1.5.9). When I re-run the installer, this is the error I get and I don’t know how to bypass it as it won’t just move on:

 * Skipping package: apache2...................................(Does not exist)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

@Chris-Whiteley Moving from one distro to the other is definitely untested with the FOG installer as far as I know.

As a quick workaround for the apache2 does not exist message you can edit /opt/fog/.fogsettings and completely remove the line starting with packages=.... Then try again.

@sebastian-roth I had the same issue. I am just going to call it a loss and just reinstall the client on the golden image machine

What do you mean by that?

Did removing the packages=... line help to let the installer run to the end?

@sebastian-roth It did not help. It still got stuck there. I think it was a version issue with the .fogsettings between 1.5.2 (old) and 1.5.9 (new) and the difference in Linux Distro. I will just move images and other settings and recreate the cert. Thanks for the help!
