Fog 1.3.5 - Isolated Setup on Fedora 25

[dvd7227]

Hi guys,

Here’s a quick guide I followed through after several initial attempts to get Fog working on Fedora

Install Fedora 25 (Use partition video below)
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=CentOS_7
Install Updates
Create Network Profile for Local DHCP
Troubleshooting after install *Mostly firewall issues
*Disable Firewall it won’t boot to tftpd
Fedora 20/21/22/23
Disable/stop Firewall
systemctl disable firewalld.service
systemctl stop firewalld.service
reboot
Can be undone with “start” and “enable”.
Check Firewall in Fedora 20/21/22/23
systemctl status firewalld.service
*Disable SElinux very important or you’ll get PXE - T00 Permission Denied msg
su -
sudo gedit /etc/selinux/config
There’s a field saying SELinux=Enforcing
change it to disabled
reboot
launch terminal and run getenforce, it should say disabled
Prep up Install
Download from Github, unpack folder and drop into Downloads folder
cd to Downloads
cd to fogproject-1.3.5
cd to bin
sudo /installfog.sh
It will check install and ask questions
(Isolated Setup)
Choice - 1 (Fedora)
What type of Setup?
Normal
IP Address - 192.168.1.1
Would you like to use a default network adapter?Yes
I typed in - eno1
Would you like to setup router address for the DHCP server - No
Would you like DHCP to handle DNS? - No
Would you like to use Fog server for DHCP Service - Yes
Other languages - No
Are you sure you wish to continue? - Yes
Is the MySQL password blank - Yes
It will ask to goto http://192.168.1.1/fog/management
Make sure to change network profile to the 192.168.1.1
Open browser and type in web address, hit update
Once it finishes go back to terminal hit Enter
It will apply final changes, and your set
Your Set
Notes -
Do not export or import database, messed up a really good image doing this, everything showed up except when you click on hosts tab icon it won’t launch
Do not name your username fog, instead call it something else had to reinstall as I couldn’t login after install
Works flawlessly with Fedora over Ubuntu, used Ubuntu on 14.04 with older Fog build, this new version is way quicker and better thanks Tom and Fog team

Thanks Wayne,

I had to do a new fog setup this morning, I did it with the new version with the recommended steps you provided and everything worked out well.

I’ll submit a new post with the new title, thanks again

Thanks for the tutorial - we need more people writing documentation. I would suggest configuring firewalld instead of disabling, and setting SELinux to permissive instead of disabling. Also, good to see people using Fedora.
