Cant create User - Setting up fogproject user..................................Failed!

This is my first time ruining Linux so you are going to have to excuse me overlooking something stupid.
don’t worry, we all do that at some point. lol (i think that was a typo though)
did you create any users on the system other than the “kelly” one we see in the log?

I did not. Im not sure i know how to do that at this point lol
-
i’m not sure what went wrong here. I haven’t installed fog on a Buster system yet, but i know others have without issue.
-
@bigmuddyfoot Please take a look at the logs you find in fogproject/bin/error_logs/ and post the last 10 lines here.

@Sebastian-Roth
How do i do that? -

It depends on where the fog installer is, but it would be similar to this.
tail -20 /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs/foginstall.logand assuming you are installing fog 1.5.7
tail -20 /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs/fog_error_1.5.7.log -
@Sebastian-Roth : I too am seeing this issue with Debian 10.2.0 running 1.5.7. Here are my log files for you to take a look at. Let me know what I can do to help troubleshoot. I have also tested the dev-branch with the same result.

@LJedi How do you run the installer?
sudo ./installfog.sh? -
@Sebastian-Roth I run it just under the root user.
./installfog.sh -

Ok, that’s correct then. I think I’ve heard another user who had that issue and found that he needed to add a PATH variable for
useraddto be found. On the other hand our daily install testing seems to work great on Debian 10: http://fogtesting.theworkmans.us/I am not saying there is no issue. Just seems like we don’t know what exactly it is yet.

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you Sebastian. Anything I can do to help please let me know. For background, this was a clean install of Debian 10.2 that I did today. Tomorrow, I will be doing another install of Debian 10.2 on a different box. I will let you know what the results are.

What happens if you simply run
useraddin the root command shell? -
root@testbebian10:/# useradd bash: useradd: command not found root@testbebian10:/# -
@LJedi Pretty clear. Try
echo PATHand then/sbin/useraddor/usr/sbin/useraddDo you login as root directly or switch user? Which command exactly do you use to switch user?
-
@Sebastian-Roth : I log in as my normal user then use the
suto switch over to the root user.Here is the results:
echo $PATH /sbin/useradd /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games /sbin/useraddecho $PATH /usr/sbin/useradd /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games /usr/sbin/useradd -
@Sebastian-Roth : I fixed it. I needed to do run
su -and that fixed the Path variable that is not set properly. Fog is now installed correctly and theuseraddworked great. This is the page that I found that lead me to the fix.
