FOG 1.3.0 Release Candidate 15
-
Lookin’ forward to checking it out Monday morning. Thanks for all your hard work!

I dont have a coding background just wondering what PSR means?
-
@irishfoguser It’s dealing with the standardization of file formatting.
For example, each developer has their own “style” of coding. PSR standardizes some of this to make things much better.
For example, a file in PHP might be something like:
<?php class ABC extends FranklinRoosevelt { public function __construct() { // Some awesome code here } }
This is all fine and well but Standardization requests you use the format:
<?php /** * Some short description of the class in whole * * PHP version 5 -- File Doc * * @category ABC * @package SomePresidentPackage * @author Some User <someuser@gmail.com> * @license http://opensource.org/licenses/gpl-3.0 GPLv3 * @link https://somelinktoproject.org */ /** * Some short description of class in whole...again * * @category ABC * @package SomePresidentPackage * @author Some User <someuser@gmail.com> * @license http://opensource.org/licenses/gpl-3.0 GPLv3 * @link https://somelinktoproject.org */ class ABC extends FranklinRoosevelt { /** * Initializes our ABC class * * @return void */ public function __construct() { // Some awesome code here } }
In otherwords, the PSR stuff is a means to document and make all files in a uniform manner so others that may need to pick up reading the code and working with it won’t need to start from “scratch”. I’m working on documenting the code a bit more and making sure the files fall in line with the PHP PSR 2 standard. http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-2/

How do I get to this download?

@John-Johnson If you’re refering to FOG 1.3.0 RC-15, you would follow steps here: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Upgrade_to_trunk
Keep in mind also we have tutorials on CentOS 7 too. Ubuntu 14 and 16 will work out-of-box. I would not advise trying to install this on Ubuntu 12 or older and I would even more strongly advise against upgrading old Ubuntu - it always breaks fog.
-
@Wayne-Workman Can you install over the top of the fog client or would you have to remove it.
I currently have 1.2.0
-
@John-Johnson The fog client should work from 1.2.0 to 1.3.0 though I would recommend removing the original client and installing the New client. The original client is severely outdated and insecure. The new client is a vast improvement in overall management, security, and speed of actions.
This is not a simple thing to accomplish though. Automating the removal of the old and installation of the new is possible via GPO though.
-
@John-Johnson If you mean the FOG Client that runs on Windows machines, no. The legacy client has to first be removed, the machine rebooted, and then the new FOG Client installed. That said, the legacy client is compatible with FOG 1.3.0 but only for the purposes of allowing you to more easily transition.
If you mean the server, yes you can install ‘over the top’.

@admin Link broken? Great job as usual everyone!
-
@ek_N Link is indeed broken, though I don’t know why. @Joe-Schmitt?
-
@Tom-Elliott, @ek_N fixed.
