Backing up database failed!

[Wayne Workman]

@drc0nc So, when I go to that address (with double slashes and without), I get a sql file downloaded and it has stuff in the file, too. I assume this is how the config export works…

Can you try to do FOG Configuration -> Configuration Save -> Export and see if that works?

Please just update, I switched the code around.

[drc0nc]

@Wayne-Workman unfortunately I currently do not have a web UI due to failing install. @Tom-Elliott I just updated and ran the installer. Still failing at backing up the database.

[Tom Elliott]

@drc0nc Any errors?

@Tom-Elliott Sam error here Tom. Just updated and ran again. Still bombs on backing up database.

[drc0nc]

@Tom-Elliott new errors now after updating

looks like it moved to line 141

@Tom-Elliott

A Permissions Error. In most cases, a 500 Internal Server Error is due to an incorrect permission on one or more files or folders. In most of those cases, an incorrect permission on a PHP and CGI script is to blame. These should usually be set at 0775 (-rwxr-xr-x).

Maybe?

[Tom Elliott]

Can you try again?

I did miss the pasv function. It should all be fixed now, at least for that particular error series you were all seeing.

[EAHarvey]

@Tom-Elliott updating now./

[drc0nc]

@Tom-Elliott Fixed! thanks!
Edit: it only fixed the access to the web UI

[EAHarvey]

@Tom-Elliott seems good to go. Did you delete all the files in the /var/www/html/fog/lib with your script or move them?

NM, had to refresh the directory.

[EAHarvey]

@Tom-Elliott Turned it on or off? The PASV that is.

This update resolved getting to the web interface, but I still get a 500 error when trying to get to the Log Viewer.

[drc0nc]

@moses @Tom-Elliott Same here, guess I should’ve looked.

[Tom Elliott]

What do you mean?

@Tom-Elliott I’m unable to load the FOG Configuration > Log Viewer page, specifically. I get a HTTP Error 500 in my browser.

I haven’t found any other pages where this error occurs, thus far.

[Tom Elliott]

@moses found the type hinting, really kind of wish the secondary bits would’ve been put in a separate posting, but all in all everything should be functional again.
