Fresh Install of FOG 1.3.4 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
-
While this question is off point, why are you installing FOG 1.2.0? I might recommend fog 1.3.x if you need M.2 (NVMe) disk support, gpt format, uefi firmware, or win10 support.
But back on to your question. Did you remember to disable selinux (or better set it to permissive) and also disable the linux firewall (iptables)?
If you did all of that make sure apache is running.
-
weird:
I restarted the server. still couldn’t hit it
I then did apt-get update/upgrade, restarted, and it worked. -
@shoong Don’t use FOG 1.2.0, and don’t build a new server using Ubuntu 14.
Use the latest stuff. Ubuntu 16.04 and FOG 1.3.x
Because - when 1.2.0 doesn’t do this and doesn’t work for that and all the other things that can go wrong with it and just not work with new hardware - all of us here are going to tell you to go to the latest FOG Version.
-
@Wayne-Workman so I went ahead and upgraded everything (Fog 1.3.x, Ubuntu 16.04) fresh install. I’m receiving a 500 error.
-
@shoong What’s the error?
Error 500 doesn’t tell us a single thing.
The error 500 (regardless of version installed) will nearly always correlate to a message being thrown in the apache error log.
Please get the last few lines of this file:
/var/log/apache2/error.log -

@shoong Can you please install the dev-branch?
git checkout dev-branch cd bin ./installfog.sh -y -
@Tom-Elliott this is what i get when i run the git command
els-fogserver:/$ git checkout dev-branch fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git -
@shoong I don’t know where your repository is.
-
@Tom-Elliott sorry i’m a linux noob. what is that command supposed to run? or is it supposed to reinstall fog? if so, i placed it in a the tmp folder and it deleted after a restart
-
git clone https://github.com/fogproject/fogproject.git cd fogproject git checkout dev-branch cd bin ./installfog.sh -y -
@Tom-Elliott i’m in business! what was the issue?
-
@shoong I don’t know. I just know there’s been more work for 1.3.5 than my focusing on 1.3.4.
-
@Tom-Elliott thanks for the quick resolution
-
I have the exact same issue, but I can’t understand this thread and how it was resolved.
Idiot guide please ? -
@philmills In a nut shell, there was/is an issue with 1.3.4 (stable). The developers have fixed this issue with one of the beta releases (1.3.5-rc6 I believe).
You can either wait until 1.3.5 (stable) is released or upgrade to the dev-branch and install/upgrade to 1.3.5-rc6.
Tom provided instructions on how to connect to the dev-branch using git.
git clone https://github.com/fogproject/fogproject.git cd <path_to_your_install_files_root>/fogproject git checkout dev-branch cd bin ./installfog.sh -yThe instructions above will update your installer files to the latest dev branch. Normally we wouldn’t suggest upgrading to a dev-branch (beta) but it appears you may be at a road block where the dev-branch will address your issues. Once your files are sync’d with the dev-branch then you can just run the installer again.

@george1421 I 'm in process of installing from dev-branch as you suggested. Its stuck at “Downloading inits, kernels, and the fog client”
https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7471/build-7705-downloading-inits-kernels-and-the-fog-client-stuck/3I’m on gigabit connection, so it shouldn’t be a network issue, unless a crab is chewing on a wire at the bottom of the Atlantic…
-
@philmills bmon shows that there’s next to no traffic on eth0. Makes no sense…
-
@philmills Does your computer have direct access to the internet or is it proxied?
-
@george1421 No proxy. I attached tracert to github, assuming the script downdloads from there. Seems there’s a timeout issue reaching github at the moment:
