      i keep my ISO files in a separate folder from www/fog, and it works fine and my permissions are set to 644.
      have you tried testing the location you put into the “advanced” menu in a browser? it should ask if you want to download the file.

        Yes i tried testing the location in Chrome/Firefox/IE. I tried setting the permissions to 644 either.
        I get the following error message: “[SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=#000000]The requested URL … was not found on this server.”
        [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]

          if the files are within your web root, and you can’t download them with a browser, then you almost certainly have the URL wrong. keep in mind that anything past the first / is case sensitive

            Yes I know that. I checked it several times. The URL is not wrong.
            I will do some more research tomorrow.

              if you provide a copy of what you put in your advanced boot options, i can help you troubleshoot it

                What is the document root of the server? Is it /var/www or /var/www/html?

                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!

                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)

                  Yes, the DocumentRoot is /var/www/html.
                  If I try to post my advanced configuration options it’s marked as spam.

                  EDIT: I changed the DocumentRoot to /var/www and the chmod of my folder to 777. Now it’s working.
