First installation -y option

[Wayne Workman]

The other day I tried to do a first-installation of the then-latest trunk version on a test server, I used ./installfog.sh -y just to see what would happen.

It did automatically start and use all defaults which is fine, and when it got done, I browsed to x.x.x.x/fog/management and was presented with a db schema update page. I figured the -y argument would have taken care of this, but it’s probably something to do with a fresh brand-new installation.

Just informing the @Developers about it. I don’t know if this is a bug or a feature request.

Just guessing but did the database need to be updated? Was selinux enabled? Any error messages?

[Wayne Workman]

@Tom-Elliott I’ll reproduce and then let you know. I don’t think SELinux was on… This particular case is for a first-time installation on a new server build, I thought the -y option would auto update the DB for me, but it didn’t.
