Fog client installation error - Cannot install CA certificate
-
@jonhwood360 Ok, found the time to properly get this fixed in the code. As there are other things I need to work on before a next official release I decided to build and sign fixed installer binaries for you still as version 0.12.0.
Find FOGService_fixed-tls.msi and SmartInstaller_fixed-tls.exe on https://github.com/FOGProject/fog-client/releases/tag/0.12.0
As mentioned the binaries are signed so auto updating to the next future release will work seamlessly.

Is there a specific place on the fog server I should place these, or just manually distribute them to endpoint clients?

@jonhwood360 With this one your need to manually distribute it to the hosts or use some other way of distributed install. The next version will then auto update.
I would suggest you test this on one of your machines - just to make sure I didn’t miss anything. After installation you want to keep an eye on the fog-client log (
C:\fog.logby default) to see if communication works all fine. Then go ahead and install to the other machines. -

Ok, fine. Communication also working I suppose?
Yes the SuperWebSocket stuff is only used for inter process communication.

FOG newbie here. I also had the error “Unable to install CA certificate” when attempting to install the FOG Client 0.12.0 with HTTPS on Windows 10. Bumping this post because it was hard to find since most of the keywords I searched are in the screenshots, not the actual text. Hopefully if anyone else has this issue they’ll find it a bit faster.
The Smartinstaller_fixed-tls.exe corrected the issue on my machines as well.
My logs also showed the same lines:
Middleware::Communication ERROR: Could not download file
Middleware::Communication ERROR: The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel. -
@MEIT-TC Thanks for your post and posting as actual text. Definitely helpful for others. Good to know the fixed version is of help to more people! We’ll bring out a new fog-client release to officially in the next weeks.

Bumping as this is still an issue and the new client isn’t directly available via the FOG download page on a self-hosted server. Took several days to find this post via Google and the FOG Forums.
The “fixedTLS” MSI worked flawlessly.Thanks for your efforts guys!

@dawnofsoap Thanks for bringing this up again. I should really push out a new release when I find the time over X-mas.
