      Hi all,

      So trying to install the current svn (2888) into a ubuntu virtual box, something I have done a million times before now however I have never come across this problem so it’s troubling me a bit.
      The install seems to be exactly what I would expect up to the point the installer asks you to navigate to: [url]http://ipaddress/fog/management[/url] to click the install/database scheme button. The page loads fine with the button so I presume this rules out the web server however after clicking the button, usually the page reloads with a message with something like “Database scheme installed, click here to log in” however at the moment all i am getting is a completely white screen at url: ipaddress/fog/management/index.php?node=schemeupdater
      No error messages have shown up on the terminal through the installer and all the packages have installed ok with nothing obvious causing a problem.

      Fog svn 2888
      Ubuntu desktop 12.04 LTS
      Virtual box with enough ram/cpu/hard drive capacity.

      Thanks.

        Anything in the Apache error logs when the white page occurs?

          Morning Tom,
          Thanks for getting back to me 🙂
          Sorry, I never thought to check the apache log and given the error, would it just be a case of manually creating the missing folder?

          On a complete different side note, I don’t suppose you know anything about the mac support slowly being built into fog? 🙂
          Huge thanks,
          Chris

            Mac Support is already built in. While it’s not a 100% foolproof solution, it does currently already work.

            I’ll take a look at the error, specifically the one at: PHP Fatal error: Using $this while not in object context.

            For the folder that’s not working properly.

            Can you set the permissions to it to be set to:
            [code]sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /opt/fog/snapins[/code]

            I may have fixed (hopefully) the this context error. If you can upgrade to 2889 it would be handy if you’d be willing to test and help.

                The /opt/fog/snapins/ssl doesn’t make sense to me, but I’m also going to guess (beyond the permissions now being owned by www-data, that it also likely needs rwxr-xr-x rights in the main folder:

                [code]sudo chmod 766 -R /opt/fog/snapins[/code]

                Can you updated to 2890, hopefully I have the context stuff all done properly now?

                  Are you wanting the whole /opt/ folder permission changed to www-data? As the chmod command is specific to the directory you run it in no?
                  Update:
                  dbs@inception-VirtualBox:/var/log/apache2$ sudo chmod -R www-data:www-data /opt/fog/snapins
                  [sudo] password for dbs:
                  chmod: invalid mode: www-data:www-data' Try chmod --help’ for more information.

                    I updated my post above, the one changing the user should’ve been chown not chmod. chmod modifies permissions, chown changes the owner.

                      Still running 2889, want me to move to 2890 then try again?

                      dbs@inception-VirtualBox:/var/log/apache2$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /opt/fog/snapins

                        It seems a little odd to me that /opt/fog/snapins doesn’t exist at this point. Are you fresh installing?

                        And yes, update to 2890.

                          I have been fresh installing yes, I have always presumed svn can be installed without fog as a precursor?

                            Yes it can, I just thought you were upgrading on a prior successful install. If it’s fresh and waiting for the DB Schema, the reason /opt/fog doesn’t exist (or /opt/fog/snapins for that matter) is simply because it hasn’t ever been installed yet. Just useful to know what’s going on. Sorry about my failure.

                              No need to apologise at all, fog is an amazing tool far more complicated than I could ever dream of! I am fascinated by it and would always help anyway I can. Slightly star struck that it is always you that comes to the rescue whenever I manage to break it given you appear to be so influential over the development of the svn.

                              On other news when i stop fan-girling, have just checked out to svn 2890 - fresh install worked fine including the database scheme install update.

                                    Dear Tom,

                                    [COLOR=#000000]I hope you don’t mind me free riding on the back of this thread. You were helping me with the thread[/COLOR]
                                    [COLOR=#000000]“[URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/updated-from-32-to-1-1-0-to-1-1-2-to-1-2-0-user-login-hist-page-blank.11301/unread’][COLOR=#000000]Updated from .32 to 1.1.0 to 1.1.2 to 1.2.0 - User Login Hist page blank” and one proposal was to upgrade to the SVN trunk. I took this option (I can always go back if needed)[/COLOR][/URL][/COLOR]

                                    [COLOR=#000000][URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/updated-from-32-to-1-1-0-to-1-1-2-to-1-2-0-user-login-hist-page-blank.11301/unread’][COLOR=#000000]The problem I am currently facing is very much like Chris’s.[/COLOR][/URL][/COLOR]

                                    For other readers, the system is openSuSe.

                                    Following your advice in the other thread, I have upgraded to SVN 2890. The install is fresh (not on top of an old version). I have also removed the database.
                                    I step through the install and when I get to:

                                    [I]This can be done by opening a web browser and going to:[/I]
                                    [I] [url]http://10.1.2.253/fog/management[/url][/I]
                                    [I] Press [Enter] key when database is updated/installed.[/I]

                                    I duly go there and sit and wait and look at a blank page, which remains blank.
                                    To be clear, I understood that Chris saw something before the blank page. I do not see anything. Immediately blank.
                                    Up to then, the install appears to go without problems.

                                    Here are the log files:

                                        I don’t mind you piggy backing Alasdair, but what confounds me most on your particular setup is the white page all around. it’s almost like it can’t communicate with the mysql server to begin with. And firewall of some sort is blocking anything being displayed on the browser.

                                          Also, on your access log I see error code 302 (Page moved) are you using apache redirects?

                                            Hello Tom,

                                            The mysql access log suggests to me that attempts are being made to access the db server but something seems strange. The first query
                                            [QUOTE]SELECT vValue FROM schemaVersion LIMIT 1[/QUOTE]
                                            (after the SET statement)
                                            seems to assume that a db already exists with tables.

                                            Could it be that something in my installation is broken (probably by me) whereby the build up of the db ‘jumps in’ part way through instead of at the beginning with a ‘create database …’? Strange I know but I can’t explain the first entries in the log in another way. Should I be looking in schema.php for this?

                                            I flushed the logs and then started the installation. I then posted the entire logs above.

                                            The firewall should be completely down but I will check this again.

                                            Error 302 is a puzzle. I am not using redirects. The Apache installation / configuration is about as simple as it can be. This is only on a test PC, not on an active server.
                                            I will also flush the cache of the browser to be sure it isn’t carrying anything over.
                                            What I do see in the browser (where one types an url in) is that

                                            I’ll keep searching 🙂
