Fresh install Ubuntu 16.04+FOG 1.2.0 not completing installation
-
I am getting an error on php5 when the script is checking packages even if I used this to initiate the install:
sudo php_ver=‘7.0’ php_verAdds=’-7.0’ ./installfog.sh
I wish there was some really updated pages that explained it better. I have been searching high and low for a surefire way to do the installation. The best would of course be to set up a repository so that installation and upgrades would be totally smooth. Has anyone tried it?
What can be the source of the error?

@george1421 Trunk installed and is up and running. Will try imaging and restoring of computers tomorrow. Now reading up on how to do it :-)
Thank you all for the help!! I guess this one can be marked solved.

@Oceanwatcher 1.2 doesn’t know what to do with those switches, so that can’t work.
It will work for 1.3 though.
I recommend following this wiki article

If I understand you right, the command switches that I used with the installer
sudo php_ver=‘7.0’ php_verAdds=’-7.0’ ./installfog.sh
should also be used with 1.3.0 ?Not also, they only work with FOG Trunk/ RCs.

@george1421 First of all - thank you for taking the time to answer.
I will wipe my Ubuntu server so it is clean and then do the git install. If I understand you right, the command switches that I used with the installer
sudo php_ver=‘7.0’ php_verAdds=’-7.0’ ./installfog.sh
should also be used with 1.3.0 ? Just asking to be 110% sure. English is not my native language :-)
Yes, we have current hardware, we use Win10 and UEFI…
P.S. I got quite confused by all the suggestions around the internet and eventually believed 1.2.0 to be compatible with 16.04 as long as I used the switches above with the installer…

FWIW: The fog 1.2.0 installer is not compatible with Ubuntu 16.04. But if you follow these instructions to download 1.3.0-rc8 then use the command switches with the 1.3.0 installer it will work better for you.

You will want to be on 1.3.0 if you have current hardware, win10 support, gpt disk format, or NVMe drives, plus many feature and speed improvements. That is all included in the 1.3.0.
