      Hi,

      I have different problems with my fog server :

      • Since few weeks it’s impossible to install fog client on computers, I tried with FOGService.msi and SmartInstaller.exe, using right Fog server IP but each time this message is displayed
      unable to install CA certificate: access denied
      
      • Each time I want to update Fog I have to run command userdel fogproject, if not this message is dispayed
      Setting up fogproject user................................../var/log/lastlog: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
      Already exists
      The account "fogproject" already exists and has been used to logon and work on this machine. We highly recommend you NOT use this account for your work as it is supposed to be a system account!
      Please remove the account "fogproject" manually before running the installer again. Run: userdel fogproject
      
      • I 'm actually on master branch (1.5.7), so I tried to use dev-branch (1.5.7.89) to see if it resolves these issues, but then installation failed with message
      * Updating Database...........................................Failed!
      

      Thanks for your help

        @Matthieu-Jacquart Let’s try to sort things a bit first. Which version of the fog-client do you use? Probably 0.11.16 which is the last version that was released with FOG 1.5.7 (and 1.5.6). Lately I have worked on the fog-client and released 0.11.17. While I am not sure if this can fix the problem you run into it might be worth a try. If not, 0.11.18 is on the doorstep and we can probably find and fix the issue you have if it is not yet.

        unable to install CA certificate: access denied

        I have seen the first part of this error message a lot when debugging an issue days ago. For me it happened when I tried to install 0.11.16 with a FOG server that uses HTTPS connection. But the access denied message sounds like you hit a different issue here. I improved the error logging in the newer version already. Can you please try using these: MSI / EXE. After running one of these installers you should have the following log file: C:\Windows\Temp\FOGService.install.log…

        /var/log/lastlog: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type

        Translated: “/var/log/lastlog: No such file or directory”??? Why don’t you have lastlog file on your server? Did you remove that by intention?

        Updating Database…Failed!

        Please post the last 20 lines of your install error log file (found in fogproject/bin/error_logs/...)!

        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)

          Hi Sebastian,

          Thanks for your reply.

          • Concerning error with fog client, it’s exactly the same problem with 0.11.17 (and yes I was using 0.11.16 previously), here is the content of FOGService.install.log file :
           07/01/2020 14:59 Data::RSA FOG Server CA cert found
           07/01/2020 15:00 Data::RSA FOG Server CA cert found
           07/01/2020 15:00 Installer ERROR: Could not unpin FOG server CA cert
           07/01/2020 15:00 Installer ERROR: Access denied.
           07/01/2020 15:00 Installer ERROR: Could not pin server CA
           07/01/2020 15:00 Installer ERROR: Access denied.
          
          • For lastlog file I absolutely don’t know why it’s missing, I recreated it (touch /var/log/lastlog) so know error message is :
           * Setting up fogproject user..................................Already exists
          
          The account "fogproject" already exists but this seems to be a
          fresh install. We highly recommend to NOT creating this account
          beforehand as it is supposed to be a system account not meant
          to be used to login and work on the machine!
          
          Please remove the account "fogproject" manually before running
          the installer again. Run: userdel fogproject
          
          • And for updating database error, here is the end of fog_error_1.5.7.log (sorry some french words…)

            @Matthieu-Jacquart Nice, I think we are getting closer.

            Concerning error with fog client, it’s exactly the same problem with 0.11.17 (and yes I was using 0.11.16 previously), here is the content of FOGService.install.log file:

            Hmmmm, I have never seen “Access denied” at this stage before. This is Windows installation right? Do you run the installer with admin rights? Do you have an older version of the client installed on this machine?

            For lastlog file I absolutely don’t know why it’s missing, I recreated it (touch /var/log/lastlog) so know error message is

            Please run lastlog command on your console and see if it produces an error message. Post output here.

            And for updating database error, here is the end of fog_error_1.5.7.log (sorry some french words…)

            Please open the FOG server URL (http://192.168.10.60/fog/) in your browser and make sure it’s working properly and update the schema.

            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)

              • For client, it’s a Windows installation, there is no older version on machine, same error with admin rights.
                But I think it could be related to a modification I made few weeks ago : I tried to run fog installer to activate https (./installfog.sh -S). It worked but I returned back because I’ve got another application on Fog server which was inaccessible with https activated…

              • Lastlog command returns this (and I don’t have the fogproject user error anymore so that’s a very good point !!!):

              • And for updating database error I run fog installer once again from scratch (deleted .fogsettings), it asked me mysql password twice and now update is ok (1.5.7 and then 1.5.7.89). So I tested once again client installation after 1.5.7.89 update (client 0.11.17 available on web interface) but still same error…

              Good news is that now I’ve just one problem to resolve : client installation !
              See you tomorrow 😉

                  Hi, big problem this morning, after upgrading to 1.5.7.89 yesterday, all computers tried to update fog client to 0.11.17, and it failed for all !
                  fog.log give me this

                  Ohhh no! Not good. Hmmmmmm let me think.

                  It’s very strange this client log shows that it wasn’t able to properly communicate with the FOG server in the first place. Do you know why?

                  And for updating database error I run fog installer once again from scratch (deleted .fogsettings)

                  Did you just delete that file or the whole /opt/fog directory? Because from the error above it seems like the server CA and certificate was regenerated and that made the clients fail in the first place.

                  I am sorry to say this but the fog-client is completely uninstalled at this stage. I know this is not a good behaviour and I am trying to change this but this is how 0.11.16 (and 0.11.17 still) worked. So you need to re-deploy the fog-client on all the machines I think. Sorry! Will be back with more informations in a few minutes.

                  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)

                    Absolutely not, maybe because I made lot of test yesterday with some VM backup restore so it may have borke something and I had to reset encryption data

                    Did you just delete that file or the whole /opt/fog directory? Because from the error above it seems like the server CA and certificate was regenerated and that made the clients fail in the first place.

                    just the .fogsetting file, not the opt/fog folder, but I can see in ssl folder that files have been modified yesteray…

                    Not a big deal, I have some software to deploy silently if it’s possible with msi client, do you think I have to regenerate certificate ?

                      @Matthieu-Jacquart Can you please run ls -la /opt/fog/snapins/ssl/CA so we see if the CA was re-generated as well? Do you have a backup of the old files just in case??

                      As well re-download the updated installer (MSI / EXE), delete the old C:\Windows\Temp\FOGService.install.log on the test client, re-run the new MSI/EXE and post log output here again.

                          Ok, seems like you somehow managed to re-generate the CA files. This should not happen unless you tell the installer to do so or delete the files. I am not exactly sure but I think it shouldn’t happen when you only delete /opt/fog/.fogsettings and re-run the installer.

                          Do you know if there are machines that still have the client installed. Probably some which were not turned on today yet. So my suggestion is you grab your backup, take /opt/fog/snapins/ssl/ (all files and sub directories):

                          mv /opt/fog/snapins/ssl /opt/fog/snapins/ssl_bak

                          Ok so it’s actually able to open the certificate store but is not able to remove the cert. Can you please open the certificate management UI on this client (run certmgr. msc) and navigate to “Trusted Authorities”. Do you see “FOG Server CA” there??

                          I am wondering if you have some kind of strange GPO in place that prevents access to the cert store somehow?!

                            YESSSS !!! That’s it, after I tried to install https on fog server few weeks ago, I added fog certificate to GPO «Root Trusted Authorities» and problems began with that mess… so sorry, if I delete fog certificate in GPO I can install client !
                            But still have this error after install client

                              Do I need to use ./installfog.sh -K option ?

                                @Matthieu-Jacquart Yeah, getting closer!!!

                                My fault, forgot these commands when I wrote this earlier:

                                cp /path/of/backup/var/www/html/fog/management/other/ssl/srvpublic.crt /var/www/html/fog/management/other/ssl/srvpublic.crt
                                cp /opt/fog/snapins/ssl/CA/.fogCA.pem /var/www/html/fog/management/other/ca.cert.pem
                                

                                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)

                                Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

                                    @Matthieu-Jacquart probably some cert mess we have now but I am sure we can figure this out. Please run:

                                      @Sebastian-Roth Nope I just found answer, I had to run installer once again and re-download client after restoring cert, now everything seems great, I just have to redeploy client on all computers 🙂
                                      Many thanks for your help Sebastian !

                                        @Matthieu-Jacquart Sure right. If one client was pinned to the re-newed server CA cert then it can’t connect to the old original one. I missed that point! Good you figured it out!!!

                                        Great we got that worked out.
