      @Strahd Can you retry the install again?

      Just to be on the safe side of course.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

      Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

      Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

          @Strahd Please pull dev-branch/working-1.6 again and try again. I think it should work.

          I’m trying to test all cases but need the help thanks

            @Tom-Elliott ok I did my best to install again. Different error this time

            sudo -i
            cd /root
            cd fogproject
            git fetch --all
            (“git pull dev-branch/working1.6” is not a valid comand and I’m not very familiar with this os)
            git checkout dev-branch
            git pull (“already up to date”)
            cd /root/fogproject/bin
            ./installfog.sh

              @Strahd are you attempting to install dev-branch or working-1.6?

              I see the problem appears to be when you’re installing dev-branch this time around, but yesterday it seemed you were attempting working-1.6?

              So I’m unsure if the issue is related to a partially updated version now attempting to install against a version that would no longer be directly supported.

              Please also post:

              sudo tail -50 /var/log/apache2/error.log
sudo php -v
sudo ls /etc/php/*/fpm/pool.d/
sudo systemctl status 'php*-fpm' --no-pager

              Findings

It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

              Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                @Tom-Elliott The FOG kernal was failing to load on our newest computers so I figured I needed to update since our fog server is at least 5 or more years old now. I just wanted to update to the latest working release, but when it failed I came here for support.

                According to your post “Dev-branch appears to have this fixed best I can tell, but also fixed it in working-1.6 (if you want to test this version I think you’ll like it a bit more - but I’ll admit I’m biased lol)”

                Ok so I tried to install the working-1.6 but it failed too.

                You next posted “Please pull dev-branch/working-1.6 again and try again. I think it should work.”

                Ok so now I’m on the dev-branch I think? At this point I just don’t care what version I’m running, I just need things to work. If you’re in the mood to remote in and poke around, I’m 100% fine with that. If it’s just a database problem of some sort, I don’t even care if I lose all my registered clients, but I would like to keep my images and pxe boot files. The last thing I wanted to do was blow everything out and reinstall the os+fog from scratch but it keeps looking like that. Thanks for looking into this.

                        (FYI 10.46.101.20 is my PC’s ip address. The fog server is a VM. It is 10.46.10.40)

                            @Strahd @Strahd Those logs were exactly what I needed, thank you. Two separate things going on
                            and neither one is your fault.

                            First, this line is your 500:

                            [proxy:error] (111)Connection refused: AH00957: FCGI: attempt to connect to 127.0.0.1:9000 (*) failed
[proxy_fcgi:error] AH01079: failed to make connection to backend: 127.0.0.1

                            Apache was trying to hand PHP off on port 9000 and php-fpm wasn’t listening there yet.
                            Notice apache came back up at 08:57:16 and there are no more of those errors after it.
                            So before you do anything else, just reload the page:

                            http://10.46.10.40/fog/management

                            There’s a decent chance it works now.

                            Second, “Updating Database…Failed!” is the part I still need to see. That curl’s
                            output goes into the install log, so please post:

                            sudo grep -A5 -i "schema\|Updating Database" /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs/fog_error_1.6.0-beta.3050.log | tail -60

                            That’ll tell me why the schema update itself came back an error, which is the last piece.

                            Third - you found a real bug. On 1.6 the schema page makes you log in first, but the
                            login reads a database column that doesn’t exist until the schema update runs. So it
                            asks you to sign in, sign in can’t work, and there’s no way out. That hits everyone
                            upgrading from any released FOG, not just you. I’ve fixed it and pushed it, tracked in
                            #927.

                            If the page is still dead, here’s the manual way to force the database update. Get your
                            token:

                            sudo grep FOG_SCHEMA_INSTALL_TOKEN /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/config.class.php

                            Then paste it into this:

                            sudo curl -X POST -H "X-Fog-Install-Token: PASTE_TOKEN_HERE" -d "schemaupdate=1" \
  "http://10.46.10.40/fog/management/index.php?node=schema"

                            You want to see:

                            {"msg":"Schema updated successfully!","title":"Schema Update Success"}

                            I tested that against a real 1.5.9 database on PHP 7.4 here, it works.

                            And to put your mind at ease - none of this touches /images or your tftpboot files. You
                            are not going to lose your images over this, so please don’t rebuild the box yet.

                            One last thing. Your install log still had these:

                            ln: failed to create symbolic link '/lib/systemd/system/mysql.service': File exists

                            I fixed those on the 27th and the current code can’t print them anymore, so I don’t think
                            your checkout took. Run this and show me what it says:

                            cd /root/fogproject
git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD
git log -1 --oneline

                            Thanks for sticking with this one. You’ve found two real bugs so far

                                @Tom-Elliott ok here’s the latest results:

                                When I visit http://10.46.10.40/fog/management it immediately jumps to http://10.46.10.40/fog/management/index.php?node=schema instead and displays the following:

                                Clicking update reveals (if I click “here to login” again it sends me to the previous update page, making an endless loop):

                                Typing
                                sudo grep -A5 -i “schema|Updating Database” /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs/fog_error_1.6.0-beta.3050.log | tail -60
                                Delivers no output at all. If you are looking for the term “Updating Database” I manually opened the log with a text editor and found no reference to “Updating” anywhere in there.

                                I tried updating the token but it threw an error - please check my syntax

                                  @Strahd IT’s likely the \ character in the line that casued the error you saw.
                                  Either way it seems like it’s working now?

                                    @Tom-Elliott No, can’t get that command to work. I tried removing the \ or removing the quotes, no joy.

                                      @Strahd IS your fog server actually having issues now?

                                      I know you have the schema testing stuffs, but that was less important.

                                      it seems you have a database and all that jazz
