@finvader Is this a new install of FOG on a new Centos server? (i.e. did you remember to disable the centos firewall and disable selinux?)

[Tom Elliott]

What version of PHP is installed?

[finvader]

@george1421

Iptables disabled
selinux is permissive

[finvader]

@george1421

Installing over old 1.2.0 of fog

[finvader]

@Tom-Elliott

Package php-5.3.3-48.el6_8.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[root@fog-server commons]# php -v
PHP 5.3.3 (cli) (built: Aug 11 2016 20:33:53)

Then something else is afoot.

How, exactly, are you install 1.3.0?

[george1421]

@Tom-Elliott My production FOG server running Centos 7 v1511 has php at 5.6.28. (just be aware I didn’t do anything crazy with my production server, this is straight out of the box).

[finvader]

@Tom-Elliott

Should have clarified, just realized this is centos 6.8

[Tom Elliott]

Doesn’t matter.

How are you installing FOG 1.3.0? I need exact details, such as what you’re using to get the latest and greatest.

See, fog installs a specific repository and uses that repository to install php packages. The fact that you are only ever getting php 5.3 is really off.

You might need to run: yum -y remove --erase php*

[finvader]

@Tom-Elliott

Was told this was a centos 7 server, in fact this is centos 6.8

[finvader]

@Tom-Elliott

Yum is only giving me 5.3.3

[finvader]

@Tom-Elliott

yum install git -y
cd ~
mkdir git
cd git
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject.git
cd fogproject/bin
./installfog.sh

[Tom Elliott]

@finvader if you run:

yum -y update php* --enablerepo=remi,remi-php56

[finvader]

@Tom-Elliott i now have php 5.5 the command you posted did not work correctly, i wget the the remi repo and it gave me remi-php55. Is that good enough?

[Tom Elliott]

It should be sure.

[finvader]

OK, so the installation using php5.5 worked succesfully, rebooted and tried to download image to a machine and encountered a chain load error and could not boot.
http://172.16.61.17/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php …Input/output error

Could not boot: Input/output error
Chainloading failed, hit ‘s’ for the ipxe shell; reboot in 10 seconds

[Tom Elliott]

This is why I’m not a fan of isolated fog servers. I’m not saying they shouldn’t be around, but there’s too much 'tis for 'tat kind of stuff going on.

Please check your /etc/httpd/conf.d/fog.conf file.

Where it says ServerName 127.0.0.1 change to read as ServerName 172.16.61.17 and restart httpd with: service httpd restart, Then pxe booting should work properly (hopefully).

@Tom-Elliott said in /Default.ipxe.....Operation not supported:

isolated fog servers

Now I am here.

Mounting file system fail.
An error has been detected

[Tom Elliott]

@finvader Try restarting nfs service?

service nfs restart

[finvader]

@Tom-Elliott

As of now, I am scraping the fix on this one. some of the files are owned fog.apache, some are root.root, permissions are wrong all over the place.

Going to attempt to put a clean fog install on a new centos 7 machine.
