Then it fails, and this is as far as I gone.

Another error that I found in /var/log/httpd/error_log
[code]
[Wed Jun 04 11:55:35 2014] [error] [client 192.168.106.130] PHP Warning: date_default_timezone_get(): It is not safe to rely on the system’s timezone settings. You are required to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected ‘America/Los_Angeles’ for ‘PDT/-7.0/DST’ instead in /var/www/html/fog/commons/system.php on line 11, referer: http://192.168.106.130/fog/management/index.php?node=tasks&sub=active

And this is why we ask you to turn off SElinux

[Tom Elliott]

Sorry about the short posts but I’m driving home so I’m restricted to Google voice the other thing want to disable is IP tables

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 29217, member: 7271”]And this is why we ask you to turn off SElinux[/quote]

It’s all good I copied and pasted the code to disabled the SELINUX, I assumed it was disabled instead of checking it.
Once I’m done with perfecting the installation I will love to assist you guys with the wiki. Once again thanks for your enormous support.
[code]
[root@localhost drnatas]# sestatus -v
SELinux status: disabled
[/code]

[Tom Elliott]

Normally, selinux isn’t disabled until a reboot, which seems to be the case.

Is iptables still running?

[code]service iptables status[/code]

To disable iptables try:
[code]chkconfig iptables off
service iptables stop[/code]

Then run:
[code]iptables -L -n[/code]

The return output should be:
[code]Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination [/code]

[DrNatas]

My iptables were disabled before I installed FOG.
[code]
[root@localhost drnatas]# /etc/init.d/iptables status
Table: filter
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
num target prot opt source destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
num target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
num target prot opt source destination
[/code]

The date.timezone error you’re seeing, is this still an issue?

Edit the php.ini file and place your timezone setting there.

I was able to use the following code to address the timezone settings so far tail /var/log/httpd/error_log has reported anything. I’ll keep making notes.
[code]
tzselect
[/code]

Found the file and edited according & no more errors.
File path:
/etc/php.ini

[code]
Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.configuration.php#ini.date.timezone
date.timezone = ‘America/Los_Angeles’
