Try to restart the server, may helps.

[Tim.Trageser]

Done that several times.

[Polii123]

Already tried to reinstall FOG?

[Tim.Trageser]

Yes, I have. The install reports that Apache fails to start.

[Polii123]

Tried to reinstall Apache manually?

[Tim.Trageser]

I have not manually tried reinstalling Apache, but I don’t think that will fix it as the error message from Apache states:

SSLCertificateFile: file ‘/var/www/fog/management/other/ssl/srvpublic.crt’ does not exist or is empty

When I look in that location the file doesn’t exist.

[Polii123]

Can you paste your V-Host config?

[Tim.Trageser]

Where would I find that?

[Polii123]

/etc/apache2/sites-enabled

[Polii123]

Sorry, you don’t have to paste your V-Host Config, wouldn’t help.

Try to put my srvpublic.crt to the location, mentioned by the error. Maybe this helps
srvpublic.zip

[Tim.Trageser]

Now I am missing:

SSLCertificateKeyFile: file ‘/opt/fog/snapins/ssl/.srvprivate.key’ does not exist or is empty

[Tim.Trageser]

hmmm…the ssl directory is missing from within snapins

[Polii123]

Alreasy tried to reinstall now?

[Tim.Trageser]

Nope still fails!!

This thread suggests it’s your user authority that might be the problem: http://serverfault.com/questions/416612/apache-sslcertificatekeyfile-file-does-not-exist-or-is-empty

Try running the previously suggested commands as root.

[Tim.Trageser]

I ran all my commands with sudo, that should be fine right?

[Tom Elliott]

Please try these commands:

sudo rm -rf /opt/fog/snapins/CA /opt/fog/snapins/SSL /var/www/fog/management/other/ssl

Edit the installer updater piece in /opt/fog/.fogsettings and delete the last two lines of the file:

They should look like:

caCreated="yes" and maybe vhostCreated="yes"

if you don’t have those lines then don’t worry about it.

Then try re-running the installer.

[Tom Elliott]

Solved as the Apache error is corrected for in latest svn.
