    It seems as though my fog password has changed all on its own?..What should I do now?

      Do you happen to use the linux user fog’s account for system management? That linux user fog is a service account owned and managed by FOG. It should not be used for system administration. Is this what happened?

      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!

          @keith75140 Well then stop doing it!! 😉

          Can you log into the linux console of the fog server as root or another user account where you can fix things?

            @george1421 Yes sir, I sure can. (I’m ready to rebuild my fog server, but I can’t do that today. lol) I need to image computers today.

              @keith75140 Well if you can get linux console access, the fog password should be captured in /opt/fog/.fogsettings

              But if you have admin access on this server, just create a new linux user like fogadm and give that sudoer rights. Then start using that account for system administration and leave the fog user alone.

                    In the end it wasn’t what FOG was doing, but the OP ran out of disk space on the root partition, and that caused mysql to not start. Flushing some failed uploads provided enough disks space to restart mysql and fog.
