    @K.Hays I suspect db issues. Try to connect to the DB, use the credentials in your .fogsettings file.

    mysql -u fog -h fog -pfoggy -D fog
    Note that no space between -p and foggy is intentional.

    The snmysqlhost being set to fog is suspicious… normally this is left blank, is set to localhost or 127.0.0.1 for the main server.

    Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                @K.Hays Ok. then inside of /opt/fog/.fogsettings set snmysqluser to root, and blank out snmysqlpass and snmysqlhost, re-run the installer, and you should be good to go.

                    Any idea to what caused this whole thing?

                    Somebody messed with the .fogsettings file and put in the wrong information. If things in there are wrong and you update - things in fog will be wrong.

                    For you and future readers, information on the .fogsettings file and passwords are in these two articles:
                    https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=.fogsettings
                    https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Password_Central
