Create New Snapin Page Fails To Load

[Motech09]

This is probably simple and something I did but I set up a server with Ubuntu 16.04/Fog Trunk and all seems fine with the exception of the Create New Snapin page failing to load. Is this page linked differently than the rest? And is there a config for this that I can check?

Only difference between this install and my previous is that I partitioned the drive and put the /HOME onto its own partition to store the images.

Thanks in advance,

What version of FOG are you running?

As you are installing on 16.04, did you follow the guide?

Normally if there’s a failure as you’re describing, there will be an accompanying apache error log. Can you provide these log files?

@Tom-Elliott

Do you know off the top of your head where the apache logs are located?

In Ubuntu-world it’s normally:
/var/log/apache2/error_log or something like that. Also if your web interface is functional, you can go to FOG Configuration -> Log Viewer -> Apache error logs and see them that way too.

@Motech09 Did you alter /opt/fog/.fogsettings with the new images path?

Did you adjust the storage node page with the new paths?

[Tom Elliott]

Again, I must ask, What version of FOG are you running? We need the exact version please.

[Motech09]

@Tom-Elliott

Sorry, getting side tracked at work:

Running Version 1.3.0-RC-4
SVN Revision: 5941

[Tom Elliott]

@Motech09 Can you try updating to RC-6? And because you’re using snapins (obviously), once installed edit the file:

/var/www/fog/status/getsnapinhash.php

Right after the <?php line add:

require '../commons/base.inc.php';

[Motech09]

@Quazz

Quazz,

That was it. I should have caught that but I forgot about settings on the storage node page.

Thanks!

Thanks guys.

[Motech09]

@Tom-Elliott

Tom, I got it working now, thanks.

But I’m glad you brought up updating the RC. Don’t you use the below to update?

cd /root/fogproject
git pull
cd bin
./installfog.sh

If this is still accurate, I’ve tried it a few times and it has failed with the below:

fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

Any clue on that?

[Wayne Workman]

@Motech09 Just delete that directory - be careful with that.

And just re-clone the repo.
Follow instructions in here:

@Wayne-Workman

That worked.
