Error installing Fog Clinet

[brent]

When I install the fog client on a windows machine i get the error unable to install CA certificate.

Any ideas?

@brent could you specify exactly at which point of the installation you see this error? If you notice the installer hangs or fails specifically during the “pinning” stage, it is likely a name resolution issue.

I’ve found a solution for this: you need to manually edit the Windows hosts file at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts and add an entry with your FOG server’s IP address followed by the name “fogserver”. This ensures the SmartInstaller.exe recognizes the server and can download the certificate properly.
