Fog not loading after ubuntu updates

[dejv]

@sebastian-roth you have a point there a good way to learn linux

[dejv]

Hey, issues again, yesterday I updated my ubuntu version from 20.04.6lts to 22.04.2lts however now fog is not loading :S

I checked and apache seems to be running :S any ideas

[Tom Elliott]

@dejv That does not mean apache is running.

Look at the right side and you see the “full command”

You returned the grep command where you were looking for apache.

You could do:
ps -ef | grep -P 'apache|http' | grep -v grep

Or
ps aux | grep -P 'apache|http' | grep -v grep

but from what I can apache definitely isn’t running currently.

@Tom-Elliott seems to be an apache related issue :s tried starting it manually and am getting the below error

root@fog:~# systemctl status apache2.service

I performed the below commands and now

sudo a2dismod php7.4
sudo a2enmod php8.1
systemctl restart apache2

and now on the web I am getting:

Service Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Apache/2.4.52 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.0.58 Port 80

[dejv]

Also when running

sudo apachectl configtest

I was getting :
fog apachectl[941]: AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server’s fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1. Set the ‘ServerName’ directive globally to suppress this message

So had to add the below command
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
and added : ServerName 127.0.0.1

root@fog:~# sudo apachectl configtest
Syntax OK

Now am getting :

Service Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Apache/2.4.52 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.0.58 Port 80

@dejv Please try:

systemctl -l status apache2

send out put then also you can do:

systemctl restart apache2
sleep 5
journalctl -xe

And send output here.

[dejv]

I have a server snapshot before the upgrade, I think I will revert back to it and then when it is nearly out of support will backup everything and do a fresh os installation

@dejv Have you attempted to reinstall fog after performing software updates?

Often this can fix things.

Before you just push the butotn, if indeed php is 8.1 you may want to edit the file /opt/fog/.fogsettings

look for instances of php where 7.4 is defined and redefine to php 8.1 as appropriate, then rerun the installer.

Things shoudl fix themselves a bit better.

@dejv changed php version as you instructed, redownloaded latest version, installed and is working ok thanks a lot
