What’s the recommended/most-tested distro for running FOG? Is that still CentOS?

Most of the common distros are tested every night against the current release of FOG. That testing system is managed by @Wayne-Workman
Daily Clean Installation Results: http://fogtesting.theworkmans.us/

The most stable OS to date is Centos 7 and 8 (caveat I just saw that centos 8 has an issue today). Now understand that may change tomorrow, but for today Centos.

@george1421 Ok great and VERY helpful! Thanks!

I know @george1421 loves CentOS, but Debian is also very stable for fog too

@Wayne-Workman Thanks Wayne, that’s good to know! LM is my favorite distro and what I’m most familiar with. They do have a version based on Debian called ‘LMDE’ https://www.linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php Being a long-time FOG user/fan it seems maybe a distro designed more for a server than a desktop role would be better. Up until now I’ve never had any issues at all running FOG on Linux Mint but I’m not averse to switching to something else that works better and is more stable. One of the things I’ve learned since becoming involved with Open Source projects way back in 1997 is “The right tool for the job.”

Any update on this issue? I am trying to install FOG 1.5.9 on Ubuntu and getting the exact same errors.

Failed to stop php7.1-fpm.service: Unit php7.1-fpm.service not loaded.

(Also tried on Ubuntu 22).

Answer No to the first question about reinstalling apache seems to let the OP of that thread get things installed on 16.04.

FWIW Ubuntu 20.04 LTS is the latest version supported by the FOG installer. 22.04 LTS has not been tested as of now.

@sow20 Please upgrade your installer package to the dev-branch. The 1.5.9GA release doesn’t support Debian 11 or Ubuntu 21.04 or newer.
