      @Wayne-Workman I have an issue upgrading. I would upgrade if it wasn’t for the error I get when I try. I get “Sorry, answer not recognized” scrolling for about 8-10 times and then exits.

      Can you get us a screenshot?

      Also - what’s in your /opt/fog/.fogsettings file? Can you post it and omit your passwords (carefully as to not ruin the syntax)?

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

        https://i.imgur.com/WxWBJYt.jpg Thats the error I get.

        I do not have a /opt/fog/.fogsettings file. I also didn’t delete said file at any point in time. I know the file exists and unless I have a reason t delete it, i dont’. I haven’t had a reason to delete the file.

          @johnomaz Can you run this command and give us the output? Obviously omit passwords if you wish to protect them, but not in such a way that destroys the syntax of where/how it was there.

          cat /opt/fog/.fogsettings

              @johnomaz Um… well… this is a head scratch-er… because - if you completed an installation of FOG, then you should have this file. It’s where all fog installation settings are stored. This is why you are getting the errors right when the installer starts - it’s trying to read settings from that file but because it’s not there, it just throws errors for each line it tries to read.

              Do you have an /opt directory? and /opt/fog directory?

                What Linux Distro are you using? What version?

                  I do have both directories. The fog directory appears to have all the folders I’ve come to known to be in there (log service snapins utils).

                  I’m running CentOS 6.5.

                    I unfortunately have to go. I’ll check back tomorrow morning when I get in. I have to image a computer lab in the morning, but after that I may end up rebuilding if a resolution can’t be found.

                      We can help you to migrate your images and hosts so that they are not lost - unless you have that under control.

                          So after deciding to rebuild my FOG server, I decided to go with Fedora 22. CentOS 7 kept giving me issues with downloading certain packages and Fedora gave me zero issues. I got it all back up and running, imported my database and it removed all the hosts that wouldn’t accept a MAC address.

                          I do appreciate the help Tom and Wayne gave me (and the extra mile Wayne with). It was a huge help.
