How to change FOG date / hour?

[tennosuke]

Hi, i have a problem with FOG, the task “Schedule Delayed Deployment” is not working, it never starts the download on the PC.

btw, i think the fog date is wrong, i’ve tried to schedule it for 3 hours ago and it throws an error “Scheduled date is in the past” which is correct, but if i schedule it for 2 hours ago it doesn’t throw the error… so i think that the date is wrong, i’ve checked the date of the operating system and it’s ok…

Any idea?
Sorry for my bad english!!!

What version of FOG are you running? The version should show in the logo at the top of the GUI.

You, most likely, need to add:

date.timezone = America/New_York

To your /etc/php5/cli/php.ini and /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini files and restart the apache service:
sudo service apache2 restart

Of course change America/New_York to your proper timezone.

This is running under the assumption that you’re running FOG on an Ubuntu-based server. If you’re running CentOS/Fedora/Redhat the file to edit would be located in: /etc/php.ini

Once you’ve saved the file, restart the service (on CentOS/Fedora/Redhat) with service httpd restart

I’m using fog 1.2.0, i’ve changed the date.timezone and now seems to schedule correctly, i can’t schedule for dates in the past.

anyway when i start the client the download doesn’t start, the fog menu appears…
