New FOG install completes, but web GUI forces Upgrade with Database error

[Tom Elliott]

Just a guess, but you’re running ubuntu?

Hello, thank you for the reply.
I’ve installed FOG on Linux Mint 17.1, which runs on Ubuntu 14.04.2.

If FOG doesn’t run on Ubuntu, then I’ll have to read the documentation again to check what FOG will run on.

[Tom Elliott]

I never said fog doesn’t run on Ubuntu. All I said was I guessed you were on Ubuntu. (I suppose I should generalize it, but it is a known issue).

[eiger3970]

Oh, sorry.
I’m so used to Forums shooting down people trying to learn, that I thought it was my fault again and I missed the compatibility checks.

Well, that’s good to hear.
Hmm, I guess I’ll have to wait then for some development?
Maybe I’ll try FOG on my Mac then, until the Ubuntu bug is fixed.
Would love to help, but I’m not sure if I could?

Don’t worry, we’re a nice bunch here. In fact, we like getting bug reports. It would be horrible if you guys didn’t give us quick feedback.

Okay, thank you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyTpu6BmE88

We only get aggravated when big-ego arrogant people try to tell US how things work…

Ok, I tried installing on Mac OSX 10.10.3.

/opt/fog-setup/fog_1.2.0/bin$ sudo ./installfog.sh
Script started, output file in /var/log/foginstall.log
script: -c: No such file or directory

Installing on OSX is not ideal nor supported… FOG is built for Linux.

If you wanna go the OSX route, you & the WiKi are on your own.

Hello,
I prefer to install on Linux, however due to being unable to run Fog after the Linux install, I thought Mac might work.

Basically, I’m trying to finish my install of an OS on my client via PXE and though Mac might be a work around until the Fog bug is fixed.

[Wayne Workman]

I wouldn’t be able to help with putting it on OSX…

You should get your Linux box up and running.

Ubuntu is … a hassal and is kind of expected to haver some hiccups. I’d recommend using Cent OS or Fedora. Or if you are more comfortable with Ubuntu, 12.04 LTS is great, its actually what one of my development servers run on.
