      Where are you expecting it to say “Modified by FOG”?

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

      Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

          @Tywyn OK those steps are standard (the preferred way is to use git instead of the tarball, but either way will work. the git method makes it easier to install upgrades as they are released).

          There are 2 files we need to inspect (I’m guessing that the installer didn’t complete correctly since the /tftpboot directory is empty).

          In the same directory as the installfog.sh script is a directory called error_logs. In that directory there are installer files (i.e. fog_error_1.4.4.log). Please review this file to ensure the installer didn’t throw an error.

          The second one is a hidden file in /opt/fog called .fogsettings If the installer didn’t finish for some reason this file will be blank or missing.

          We may need to run through the installer one more time to address things that didn’t get installed correctly.

          Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

            /srv/tftp was empty.
            Tried to copy the files from ~/Downloads/fog_1.4.4/packages/tftp there, but then I ran into the missing default.ipxe (see inital posting)

              @Tywyn Quazz was asking for the version of Debian you are using.

                This kind of tells me that your installer didn’t finish correctly, the default.ipxe file is built by the installer.

                      The “FOG Modified Version” string appears, to me, to be related to debian/ubuntu. This, however, does not mean it is a requirement as using rpcbind variants might work better for the server in which case IT would be used. You stated /tftpboot/default.ipxe wasn’t created?

                          Then, as @george1421 state, it would seem your installer didn’t finish.

                          When it asked you to open the browser and goto update the schema, did you go back to the console and press enter to continue on?

                            You mean after updating/installing the database scheme? Yes, I did.

                            But, it was the second attempt of installation.

                            First time I did something wrong with the 2 NICs, because I did not understand the questions in the installer about the router-adress for DHCP-Server (and still don’t understand it completely :)) so the first installation endet up with an error-message (something about the DHCP-Server).
                            The second install went well, and as mentioned I did not see any error-messages.

                                @Tywyn There’s an error_logs folder in the fogproject/bin folder (where you extracted the download). There will be a log file of the most recent installation, there’s probably some more detailed information in there.

                                    Hm hm … thought over to reinstall about an hour ago but aborted the reinstall. It seems, that this try overwrote the log-files from the last install. So I have none from my orignal installation.

                                    Maybe I should do another, clean reinstallation.
                                    Is it just the sudo ./installscript.sh? Or do I have to remove some files/databases?

                                    Do I have to set router address for DHCP-Server to 192.168.100.1 ?

                                    Are those settings then correct:

                                     * Here are the settings FOG will use:
                                     * Base Linux: Debian
                                     * Detected Linux Distribution: Debian GNU/Linux
                                     * Server IP Address: 192.168.100.1
                                     * Server Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
                                     * Interface: enp3s1
                                     * Installation Type: Normal Server
                                     * Internationalization: 0
                                     * Image Storage Location: /images
                                     * Using FOG DHCP: Yes
                                     * DHCP router Address: 192.168.100.1
                                    
                                    

                                    Interface enp3s1 is the one, which listens to 192.168.100.1

                                      @Tywyn The router address should be the address of the router, it’s unlikely to be the FOG server. This is information used by the DHCP server (which will run on the FOG server in your case it seems) to inform DHCP clients of where the router is they should use.

                                      You can change this information in /opt/fog/.fogsettings

                                        Just a small amendment to Quazz’s post.

                                        You can / fix change this information in /opt/fog/.fogsettings and then just rerun the installer. No need to do a clean install

                                            I have done that a few times where I use putty for installation and want to copy the url out of the putty window and I hit crtl-c to copy (which is the wrong keystroke for linux and the installer aborts).
