Upgraded from FOG 1.5.9 to 1.5.10.1903 and having issues

[Tom Elliott]

@Strahd Simply put:

Please try a repull and install:

cd /root/fogproject
git pull
cd bin
sudo ./installfog.sh -y

should work?

[Strahd]

@Tom-Elliott ok here’s the latest results:

When I visit http://10.46.10.40/fog/management it immediately jumps to http://10.46.10.40/fog/management/index.php?node=schema instead and displays the following:

Clicking update reveals (if I click “here to login” again it sends me to the previous update page, making an endless loop):

Typing
sudo grep -A5 -i “schema|Updating Database” /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs/fog_error_1.6.0-beta.3050.log | tail -60
Delivers no output at all. If you are looking for the term “Updating Database” I manually opened the log with a text editor and found no reference to “Updating” anywhere in there.

I tried updating the token but it threw an error - please check my syntax

[Tom Elliott]

@Strahd IT’s likely the \ character in the line that casued the error you saw.
Either way it seems like it’s working now?

[Strahd]

@Tom-Elliott No, can’t get that command to work. I tried removing the \ or removing the quotes, no joy.

[Tom Elliott]

@Strahd IS your fog server actually having issues now?

I know you have the schema testing stuffs, but that was less important.

it seems you have a database and all that jazz

[Strahd]

@Tom-Elliott Fog server has not been working since this entire thread was created… it’s not working.
So far the database has refused to update and the web management console is 100% unavailable since the only thing it does is prompt me to update the database.

Tried the manual update with
sudo curl -X POST -H “X-Fog-Install-Token: 14dbb4a059bc201b2bf585b625087f92f4b5f8fd6dc70de8a0bef17845f00321” -d “schemaupdate=1” “http://10.46.10.40/fog/management/index.php?node=schema”

but it responded with
{“error”:“Unable to update schema”,“title”,“Schema Update Fail”}

Here’s some data you requested earlier

[Tom Elliott]

@Strahd Try another git pull please then try install again?

[Strahd]

@Tom-Elliott ok here we go again

git pull
sudo ./installfog.sh -y

I read somewhere in another post that having a simple password on my account can cause DB problems, should we look into that? My password on this system is very simple, it’s never needed to be complex.

@Strahd I would try updating PHP to 8.3, @Tom-Elliott managed to test it and it worked with 7.4 but I’d still suggest updating your PHP for best results and best security practice. I found (though didn’t test) a guide online right quick https://php.watch/articles/php-8.3-install-upgrade-on-debian-ubuntu#php83-ubuntu-quick there are many others out there.

I would also go in the database and see what your schema version is

mysql -u root fog
select * from schemaVersion;

318 is the latest I believe, if yours says 318 and is stuck in a loop, maybe you can try forcing it down and then trying the schema update again. i.e.

mysql u root fog
update schemaVersion set vValue=317 where vID=1;

Then open your fog server, it will redirect you to update the schema, and see if it takes then.

Also any time you’re attempting an install and it fails, if you could grab and share the error log it mentions i.e. /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs/fog_error_1.6.0-beta. 3064. log that would be very helpful.

There’s something specific to your instance that we need to find and fix. Maybe you have a firewall running sudo ufw status ?

@JJ-Fullmer My version is 270. Do you still want me to try updating PHP to 8.3?
