Those errors would not keep the httpd service from starting.

What’s in the bin/error_logs/fog_error_6683.log file?

Tried again with build 6687. Same results.

@sudburr Edit your /opt/fog/.fogsettings file.

You’ll likely see an area that says something along the lines of:

sslpath='\/opt\/fog\/snapins\/ssl'

Delete the line and rerun the installer.

That did the trick. Thank you!
