      I finally broke down and reinstalled FOG 1.1.2 on a fresh install of 12.04. I extracted fog_1.1.2 into /opt and changed directories to: opt/fog_1.1.2/bin and ran sudo ./installfog.sh

      The install went through and the only error that shows is: * Setting up and starting Apache Web Server… Failed!

      And of course, that makes for useless lol.

      It’s installing Apache2, and I’ve ran the install twice with the same result. Any ideas?

            It might be worth trying to manually install the apache2 package and see what error is getting thrown.
            [CODE]
            $ sudo apt-get purge apache2
            $ sudo apt-get update
            $ sudo apt-get install apache2
            [/CODE]
            *EDIT Remember to purge the packages again when you are done
            [CODE]
            $ sudo apt-get purge apache2
            [/CODE]
            My guess would be dependancy problems due to an external repository.

              I did a manual install of apache2 and I don’t see any red flags:

              I then purged apache2 again and ran the install, I got the same result. failed to setup/start. Here’s my install:

              FOG now has everything it needs to setup your server, but please
              understand that this script will overwrite any setting you may
              have setup for services like DHCP, apache, pxe, tftp, and NFS.

              It is not recommended that you install this on a production system
              as this script modifies many of your system settings.

              This script should be run by the root user on Redhat or with sudo on Ubuntu.

              ** Notice ** Redhat users will need to disable SELinux and iptables in
              order to use FOG
              Please see our wiki for more information at http://www.fogproject.org/wiki

              Here are the settings FOG will use:
              Base Linux: Debian
              Detected Linux Distribution: Ubuntu
              Installation Type: Normal Server
              Server IP Address: 10.120.88.146
              DHCP router Address: 10.120.88.74
              DHCP DNS Address: 10.120.88.74
              Interface: eth0
              Using FOG DHCP: 0
              Internationalization: 0
              Donate: 0

                  DHCP will NOT be setup but you must setup your
                  current DHCP server to use FOG for PXE services.
              
                  On a Linux DHCP server you must set:
                      next-server
              
                  On a Windows DHCP server you must set:
                      option 066 & 067
              
                    Option 066 is the IP of the FOG Server: (e.g. 10.120.88.146)
                    Option 067 is the undionly.kpxe file: (e.g. undionly.kpxe)

                  It looks like the package installation went fine, it looks like the problem might be with the apache configuration. Could you try
                  [CODE]
                  $ apache2ctl configtest
                  [/CODE]
                  Also you might see errors in your apache log (might be /var/log/apache2/error.log on ubuntu). Just try starting up apache then having a look at the end of that file, e.g.
                  [CODE]
                  $ /etc/init.d/apache2 start
                  $ tail -n 100 /var/log/apache2/error.log
                  [/CODE]
