Issues after upgrading to 16.04

Quazz

@EAHarvey Most likely some odd one out php thingy got missed when we tried to manually remove them earlier.

Check the error logs of the FOG installer (near the bottom) to find out which one.

EAHarvey

@Quazz Failed to stop php7.0-fpm.service: Unit php7.0-fpm.service not loaded.

Looking for fix now.

Tom Elliott

@Quazz commenting the packages line would also be needed

Tom

@Quazz Yes

Tom

Ok, deleted the values for php_ver (5) and php_verAdds(-5.6) in fodsettings and saved.
Ran php_ver=‘7.0’ php_verAdds=‘-7.0’ ./installfog.sh -y
installation stopped at this:

I hope it helps.

Quazz

@Tom As Tom Eliott has stated, you also need to comment out the packages = " line in your /opt/fog/.fogsettings file (simply put a # in front of packages)

Because the installer ran previously, it compiled a list of packages to install based on the setting of the time and saved in the .fogsettings file for speed reasons.

Tom

@Quazz Thanks, I put # in front of php_ver and php_verAdds.
Ran “php_ver=‘7.0’ php_verAdds=’-7.0’ ./installfog.sh -y” and the installation stopped at the same spot.

Should I have commented something else?

Quazz

@Tom Yes, you have to comment the packages=“list of packages here” line

After that you have to remove the old php stuff from your system again.

sudo apt purge php*
sudo apt purge apache*
rm -rf '/etc/apache*' '/etc/php*'

Tom

@Quazz Thank you, it seems that php7 was installed successfully and the values in fogsettings has been changed.
Tried to access the console, and I got:

So, I uncommented the lines and ran the installer again.
Yet, I get the same screen.

EAHarvey

sudo apt purge php*
sudo apt purge apache*
sudo apt-get autoremove
rm -rf ‘/etc/apache*’ ‘/etc/php*’

Along with the #out of the Packages line in the fogsettings file, worked for me. I am up and running and testing an image push right now. YAY!

@Tom
This happened to me, and when i was looking at /var/www/fog/lib/fog/config.class.php my db password was empty…
setting my db password, then webui automatically had changed to correct page…

Tom

Ok, so now apache 2 is failing. This my plan, please confirm steps:

Revert back to 14.04
Upgrade to 16.04
Comment php and packges entries in fogsettings
Purge php* and apache* (3 commands)
Run apt-get Autoremove
Run Fog installer
Undo step 3

Thanks,

Tom

Wayne Workman

@EAHarvey Correct. If the installer hasn’t completed at least once, there will be no fogsettings file. It exixts here: /opt/fog/.fogsettings

@Tom to get the installed php version, it’s just php -v

Tom

So I followed the steps 1-6, when running the installer, apache is failed to install.

Tom

When trying to install apache2 , I get broken package.

Frustrating!!

EAHarvey

@Tom Did you try the commands I talked about earlier.

sudo apt purge php*
sudo apt purge apache*
sudo rm -rf ‘/etc/apache*’ ‘/etc/php*’
sudo apt-get autoremove

Along with the #COMMENT out the entire PACKAGES LINE in fogsettings. So in front of the entire line. (#PACKAGES)

I know you have probably done this too but make sure all is updated.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I would also make sure you have all the updates release info.

sudo do-release-upgrade.

Once this has all been done then reboot (sudo shutdown -r now) and rerun the ./installfog.sh and see what happens.

Tom

@EAHarvey I’ve done it all, once apache2 got broken, I could not fix it.
Thanks!

Quazz

@Tom Please put the output of

dpkg --get-selections | grep hold

So - I just spun up a brand-new Ubuntu 16 Server VM, updated it, and installed RC-10 on the first try with zero problems.

We typically warn people against upgrading Linux Distributions to another newer major version for use with FOG. It never goes well, this is a good example of why we recommend against it.

I’m going to guarantee that your problems are either being caused by imperfections in the upgrade process from 14 to 16, or by grandfathered-in settings, or by PHP 5.x being mixed with PHP 7.x

All the below instructions assume you are root - proper. Become root properly first with:
sudo -i

Along the lines of what @EAHarvey said about updating, I’d recommend running this line to do that, it’s a more aggressive version that will also clean out things that aren’t needed too.
apt-get update -fy;apt-get upgrade -fy;apt-get dist-upgrade -fy;apt-get autoremove

The next thing to try is simply running the commands the installer would run, but manually. These are them, just copy/paste and give us the results:

a2enmod php
a2enmod rewrite
a2enmod ssl
a2ensite "001-fog"

The next thing to try is deleting the .fogsettings file and then forcing the installer to use PHP7 as we used to do when we had issues with Ubuntu 16, Do that with these commands:

#Go to your fogproject repo's bin directory first#
rm -f /opt/fog/.fogsettings
apt-get purge php*
apt-get purge apache*
rm -rf ‘/etc/apache*’ ‘/etc/php*’
apt-get autoremove
php_ver='7.0' php_verAdds='-7.0' ./installfog.sh -y

Here’s some of my configuration files from Ubuntu 16, does yours look like this? If you run each of the commands in red, it’ll output the file.

cat /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/001-fog.conf

cat /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

# This is the main Apache server configuration file.  It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/ for detailed information about
# the directives and /usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian about Debian specific
# hints.
#
#
# Summary of how the Apache 2 configuration works in Debian:
# The Apache 2 web server configuration in Debian is quite different to
# upstream's suggested way to configure the web server. This is because Debian's
# default Apache2 installation attempts to make adding and removing modules,
# virtual hosts, and extra configuration directives as flexible as possible, in
# order to make automating the changes and administering the server as easy as
# possible.

# It is split into several files forming the configuration hierarchy outlined
# below, all located in the /etc/apache2/ directory:
#
#	/etc/apache2/
#	|-- apache2.conf
#	|	`--  ports.conf
#	|-- mods-enabled
#	|	|-- *.load
#	|	`-- *.conf
#	|-- conf-enabled
#	|	`-- *.conf
# 	`-- sites-enabled
#	 	`-- *.conf
#
#
# * apache2.conf is the main configuration file (this file). It puts the pieces
#   together by including all remaining configuration files when starting up the
#   web server.
#
# * ports.conf is always included from the main configuration file. It is
#   supposed to determine listening ports for incoming connections which can be
#   customized anytime.
#
# * Configuration files in the mods-enabled/, conf-enabled/ and sites-enabled/
#   directories contain particular configuration snippets which manage modules,
#   global configuration fragments, or virtual host configurations,
#   respectively.
#
#   They are activated by symlinking available configuration files from their
#   respective *-available/ counterparts. These should be managed by using our
#   helpers a2enmod/a2dismod, a2ensite/a2dissite and a2enconf/a2disconf. See
#   their respective man pages for detailed information.
#
# * The binary is called apache2. Due to the use of environment variables, in
#   the default configuration, apache2 needs to be started/stopped with
#   /etc/init.d/apache2 or apache2ctl. Calling /usr/bin/apache2 directly will not
#   work with the default configuration.


# Global configuration

# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's

# mounted filesystem then please read the Mutex documentation (available
# at <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#mutex>);

# e.g., www.apache.org (on) or 204.62.129.132 (off).
# The default is off because it'd be overall better for the net if people
# had to knowingly turn this feature on, since enabling it means that
# each client request will result in AT LEAST one lookup request to the
# nameserver.
#
HostnameLookups Off

# ErrorLog: The location of the error log file.
# If you do not specify an ErrorLog directive within a <VirtualHost>

@Wayne-Workman Thank you so much. I had to revert back to 14.04 since I could not leave it non functional - we use it on a daily basis.
I would really appreciate if it can be summarized into one simplified (as possible) list of steps that will result in successful upgrade. It feels like the more I try to fix it, it gets further away from success.

Would it be easier to backup all fog settings and images, build new 16 server, install fog and restore?

If none of this is possible, I will try again using your recent instructions.

Again, thank you all for being out there supporting…

Tom
