Unable to find settings .json
-
What’s in the c:\fog.log file?
-
I’m having this issue as well. I don’t have a C:\fog.log file, only the zazzles file.
-
@Vanlue-IT-Guy What is the zazzles file?
-
If the fog.log file is not located at C:\fog.log, does it exist in C:\Program Files (x86)\FOG\fog.log or C:\Program Files\FOG\fog.log? If so, can you post it here? If not, can you post the zazzles file you’re referring to?
-
@Tom-Elliott the zazzles file is what is added in the download folder (or I’m assuming wherever you ran the SmartInstaller from). All it gives is the following:
Settings ERROR: Unable to load settings
Settings ERROR: Could not find file ‘C:\Users(my username)\Downloads\settings.json’. -
@Tom-Elliott I checked both Program Files and Program Files (x86) and there is no FOG folder created. The SmartInstaller stops at the error and undoes everything (as far as I can tell) so no folders are created.

@Tom-Elliott 0_1462290263800_zazzles.log Tom, here is my zazzles file.

This is not released quite yet, but it is up if you can download and install it? It should fix the zazzle’s issue. Let us know so we can get it added more quickly.

@Tom-Elliott Sorry I’m not sure what to do with the link you provided.
-
@chamzod download 0.10.4 from here and try it out.

@Wayne-Workman @Tom-Elliott That did not work, I’m getting the same errors as before
-
@Wayne-Workman Wayne, I tried the github link you posted and got the same errors identically to the first try.
-
@chamzod @Vanlue-IT-Guy If you update, v0.10.5 should fix this issue. Windows XP support was added to ensure maximum compatibility on all Windows installations.
-
@Jbob Thanks! I have tested and confirmed it works for me on Win 10 Education!
-
@Jbob It has installed just fine! The zazzles still appears and still gives the same message but doesn’t stop the installation, thank you.
-
@chamzod , thanks for reporting. I’ll fix that in the next client release(which with any luck won’t happen for awhile). Zazzles is the cross platform framework I built which the FOG Service now runs ontop of. Whenever it loads, it tries and read a
settings.jsonfile to obtain configuration information, which doesn’t exist if the client isn’t yet installed . I’ll suppress this log entry on installation next time. -
@Jbob Works for me! Thank you for your time!
