The web server IS serving FOG at:
https://fog.mm.htlwien10.at/fog/management/index.php?node=schema
but this host cannot verify the certificate it presents.

TLS verification failed (curl 60). The page rendered when verification was skipped,
so this is a trust problem and not a broken site – the
install continues.

Likely causes:
- the certificate is managed outside FOG (acme.sh, certbot)
and FOG has not been pointed at it: make
/opt/fog/pki/web/leaf/.webLeaf.pem resolve to your
certificate (a symlink is enough)
- the served chain does not terminate in the anchor FOG
resolved (/opt/fog/snapins/ssl//CA/.fogCA.pem)

Note the schema deploy verifies strictly and will NOT
continue past this – it carries an install token.

Backing up database…Failed

We were not able to backup the current database!
Reason: curl exited 60 requesting https://fog.mm.htlwien10.at/fog/maintenance/backup_db.php: curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

multicast is not working …

Please note the installation errors …

Tom Elliott

@kratkale That’s not a bug and it’s not stopping you — press Enter and the upgrade will finish.

What it’s telling you: your server presents a certificate that FOG didn’t issue (a real one for fog.mm.htlwien10.at, from acme.sh/certbot or your school’s CA). During an upgrade the installer makes a few HTTPS calls to itself, and it verifies those against FOG’s own CA. Your certificate doesn’t chain to FOG’s CA, so those calls fail. The only thing you actually lose is the automatic pre-upgrade database dump.

So take a dump of the fog database yourself first, with mysqldump or from phpMyAdmin — whichever you normally use. Then press Enter and let the installer run.

To stop this happening on every upgrade, point FOG at the certificate you are actually serving. Symlink both halves of your ACME pair into FOG’s leaf directory:

/opt/fog/pki/web/leaf/.webLeaf.pem  ->  your fullchain file
/opt/fog/pki/web/leaf/.webLeaf.key  ->  its matching private file

FOG checks whether those resolve outside its own PKI directory. Once they do, it treats the certificate as externally managed: it stops regenerating it, and it stops replacing your system trust store when it calls itself — so verification just works. Running the installer with --public-web-cert declares the same thing up front.

Once you are through you will be on 1.6.0-beta.5332 or newer, which carries the multicast, snapin-labeling and State column fixes. Let me know whether multicast starts for you.

Maybe it’s a Windows bug; I’ve often had to shut down not just once, but two or three times with 24H2 LTS.

@Tom-Elliott Manually deploying a Snapin after cloning does not work—you must first manually restart the system. There is no Fog log even before the restart. The Fog Client was run using C:\Windows\Setup\Scripts\SetupComplete.cmd

@Tom-Elliott

Here, too, I’m just launching a simple snap-in—it would be cool if it also showed which snap-in it is. As I mentioned before, due to timing issues, I stopped automatically deploying snap-ins—they often didn’t work properly, even though they worked in the Command Prompt. From this, I concluded that there’s a timing issue between Windows Update… and the snap-ins. That’s why I’ve always preferred to do this manually.

Multicast. The version number does not show what fails. Queue a multicast task, start the clients, then post:

the output of tail -n 40 /opt/fog/log/multicast.log
a photo of one client screen

–public-web-cert. Correction to my last reply: this flag helps only when your web server sends a complete, publicly trusted chain. The flag removes FOG’s own CA from the check, and curl then uses the system trust store. That check also failed. So the system store cannot verify the chain your web server sends. Run this on the FOG server and post the output:

openssl s_client -connect fog.mm.htlwien10.at:443 -servername fog.mm.htlwien10.at </dev/null 2>/dev/null | grep -E '^ *[0-9]+ s:|^ +i:'

It shows who issued the certificate and which certificates the server sends.

Power management. The server sends the schedule in the same format as 1.5. The FOG Client runs it on the PC, at 18:55 PC time. Check that Power Management is enabled in FOG Configuration > Service Configuration and on the host. Then post C:\fog.log from one PC. The lines that start with PowerManagement show whether the client got the schedule.

Snapin after cloning. No C:\fog.log means the FOG Client service has not run yet. The server only queues the snapin. The client starts it. Add net start FOGService after the client install line in SetupComplete.cmd.

All Snapins. FOG shows All Snapins when a host has more than one snapin queued. The Active Snapin Tasks tab lists each snapin by name. The “/ of (/min)” text in the Progress column is a display bug. It is fixed in 1.6.0-beta.5346.

@Tom-Elliott
Hi
I don’t know enough about certificates. I tried to use ChatGPT to implement your answer—and this is what came out:

This is important

The original instructions you received essentially say:

    “Your server is using a certificate that was not issued by FOG.”

That doesn’t match your current configuration.

Your current web certificate was clearly issued by the FOG Web CA.

Therefore, I wouldn’t create a symlink to any `fullchain.pem` file right now. We also have no indication so far that you’re using an external ACME certificate at all.
What’s likely happening

I suspect that the message you’re getting during the upgrade is related to the FOG PKI or the internal trust chain, and not to the fact that you’re using a Let’s Encrypt certificate.

It’s interesting to note that your current Apache configuration uses:

SSLCertificateFile /opt/fog/pki/web/leaf/.webLeaf.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /opt/fog/pki/web/leaf/.webLeaf.key

.

The older configuration also included:

SSLCertificateChainFile /opt/fog/snapins/ssl/CA/.fogCA.pem

The current configuration does not have an SSLCertificateChainFile line.

That might be relevant.

That’s where I stopped…

@kratkale Thank you, that log shows the cause.

Your web files are new, but the service files in /opt/fog/service are old. The new web code does not provide the name “FOGCore” that the old service code uses. So every FOG service stops at start, not only the multicast manager.

Why: on each upgrade, the installer stopped at the certificate error before the schema step. It had already copied the web files, but it had not yet copied the service files.

Both problems are now fixed in 1.6.0-beta.5396. The installer now accepts your FOG Web CA certificate. It also copies the service files immediately after the web files, so a failed step cannot leave them behind again.

Please update to 1.6.0-beta.5396 or newer and run the installer again. It must finish without the “TLS verification failed” message. Then run:

sudo systemctl restart FOGMulticastManager
sleep 5
sudo systemctl -l status FOGMulticastManager

It must show “active (running)”. Then queue the multicast task, and post the output of tail -n 40 /opt/fog/log/multicast.log if it does not start.

The PCs won’t boot anymore—I had to switch them all back from PXE boot to booting from the hard drive
Thank goodness I got to school early enough…

Tom Elliott

@kratkale The PXE failure has one cause, and a re-run of the installer fixes it.

On 2026-09-09 you ran the installer with --public-web-cert. The installer saved that setting. It is wrong for your server: your web certificate comes from FOG’s own CA, not from a public CA. Until yesterday, every upgrade stopped before the boot files. Yesterday the upgrade finished, and it applied the saved setting: iPXE now loads boot.php over HTTPS. iPXE cannot verify FOG’s own CA, so it stops with “Permission denied”.

The sudoers errors have a second cause: the sudo package is not installed on your server. Those errors do not stop PXE boot.

Update to 1.6.0-beta.5398 or newer. Then run this on the FOG server, from your fogproject/bin directory:

./installfog.sh -y --no-public-web-cert

5398 installs sudo itself.

Then check the boot file:

grep chain /tftpboot/default.ipxe

The line must start with chain http://192.168.0.196/. If it shows https://, post the output. Boot one PC before you switch the others back to PXE.

The “Detected a web certificate managed outside FOG” message was wrong. 5398 fixes it. It does not affect PXE boot.

5398 also warns if --public-web-cert is set on a certificate from FOG’s own CA.

@kratkale Two separate things. The first gets your PCs booting today.

PXE boot, now. The installer stopped before it rewrote the boot file, so the file still says https. Change it by hand:

sed -i 's#^chain https://#chain http://#' /tftpboot/default.ipxe
grep chain /tftpboot/default.ipxe

The line must now start with chain http://192.168.0.196/. Boot one PC to test it. The next complete installer run writes this file again, with http.

The installer failure. Your certificates were not changed. The installer stopped before it created anything. The Secure Boot signing files that your settings name are not on disk, so it tried to create new ones. That needs the private key of your FOG root CA, and the key is not at /etc/fog/pki/root/ca/.fogCA.key. Your root certificate is still there, so your FOG clients are not affected.

Please do not delete anything, and do not run the installer with --recreate-CA. That replaces the CA that all your FOG clients trust.

Please post the output of these commands. They show only file names and paths, no key contents:

ls -la /etc/fog/pki /etc/fog/pki/root/ca /etc/fog/pki/secureboot /etc/fog/pki/secureboot/ca /etc/fog/pki/secureboot/leaf /opt/fog/snapins/ssl/CA
ls -ld /opt/fog/pki
grep -E '^PKI_(root|sb)_' /opt/fog/.fogsettings
find / -xdev -name '.fogCA.key' 2>/dev/null
