When I first did setup, I messed up the DHCPD.conf file and wasn’t intelligent enough to back it up first. So I re-ran the installer to re-create that file - could that have led to this problem?
Nope. The DHCP config that fog builds for you is solid, I’ve been working to improve it.
Sounds like your issue might be FTP related. Check all the FTP credentials related stuff here in this article: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_FTP

Well, the FTP error is definitely not good and should be fixed but I don’t find this being related to the client not being able to update the database after uploading.
The “Invalid MAC Address” error is ok I think as you are accessing the page from a computer not registered in FOG. At least this php file seams ok!
Sure you don’t have any error in apache log when you see the error after upload?
-
@Sebastian-Roth The Upload task might fail if the image could not be FTP’d to the /images directory.
-
@Tom-Elliott Is there a way to get more specific errors from the upload script? Any way to check to see if the FTP move succeeded?
-
@Wayne-Workman Sorry, i’m not that good.

Why don’t more people point this out ???
I mean really - quite honestly, greater than 90% of people here get a reply in under 10 minutes if they post during sane hours. And not just a “Thank you for posting, we will get with you” reply, but an actual answer or suggestion or advice.
And to imagine, we are volunteer powered.

Learn, explore, share, and help others freely and openly. As open source freely flows, so to does information flow freely into and out of the helpers here. It’s a mind set.
