[christo]

Good day everyone, I was referred to this awesome tool by a friend after I saw first hand
how easy Fog can make my life. I have setup a centOS server, and started to setup
fog. this is the error i am receiving. I am not sure if its the mirror that’s faulty, or is it
something i can do.

please assist. i will do my best to give any information without sounding like a
blithering idiot.

I’m going to go on a limb and believe you’re installing 0.32?

For htmldoc to be installed, you need to have rpmforge repo installed. Follow the wiki article to install all the needed repos.
[url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Installation_on_CentOS_6.4[/url]

I don’t think you need the php-gettext as that should be installed with php-common when installing on CentOS. Remove the php-gettext from the file.

The file will be:
{code]cd <location where you extracted the downloaded fog>/fog_0.32/lib/redhat/config.sh[/code]

The line should contain packages= in front of it near the top of the file.

Remove the php-gettext parts. If you want you can replace the entire line with:
[code]packages=“httpd php php-cli php-common php-gd php-mysql mysql mysql-server dhcp tftp-server nfs-utils vsftpd net-tools wget xinetd tar gzip make m4 gcc gcc-c++ htmldoc perl perl-Crypt-PasswdMD5 lftp clamav”;[/code]

A big thank you Tom. i went step by step through the wiki, then copied your code. installed, and working ! i have access to the dashbord, and was able to log in. However once install was complete i found this:

• Setting up storage…OK
  • Setting up and starting NFS Server…OK
  • Setting up and starting DHCP Server…Skipped
  • Setting up and starting TFTP and PXE Servers…OK
  • Setting up and starting VSFTP Server…OK
  • Setting up sudo settings…OK
  • Setting up FOG Snapins…OK
  • Setting up and building UDPCast…OK
  • Installing init scripts…OK
  • Setting up FOG Services…OK
  • Starting FOG Multicast Management Server…Failed!
    [root@localhost bin]#

that’s going to cause a problem huh?

[christo]

i have redone all the steps, but it seems like i get the same results. Does anyone know how to get the FOG multicast management server started?

• Installing init scripts…OK
• Setting up FOG Services…OK
• Starting FOG Multicast Management Server…Failed!
  [root@localhost bin]#

[Albatros]

I am not sure if that helps. You can start the service with
[CODE]service FOGMulticastManager start[/CODE]
If that still fails, please take a look into the file
[CODE]/opt/fog/log/multicast.log[/CODE]

Agreed, worse comes to worse, also check the apache error logs during startup as it is referencing php files.
