Fresh install Ubuntu 16.04.1 Fog 1.3.4 Error

Please try these steps (anybody having these similar issues in Ubuntu 16.04)
git clone https://github.com/fogproject/fogproject.git /root/fogproject_working cd fogproject_working git pull git checkout working-1.3.5 git pull cd bin ./installfog.sh [-y] # the -y does not contain [] around it its meant to show optional

System Ran out of disk space during copy process…can 't get into system, get error
Database Schema Installer / Updater
Your database connection appears to be invalid. FOG is unable to communicate with the database. There are many reasons why this could be the case. Please check your credentials in /var/www/fog/lib/fog/config.class.php. Also confirm that the database is indeed running. If credentials are correct, and if the Database service is running, check to ensure your filesystem has enough space. -
Also wanted to say that FOG 1.3.4 installs fine on Ubuntu 16.04, I test linux distributions and fog versions and report on them here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8730/fog-installer-distro-check
As Tom said below, if you run the installer as
./installfog.sh -y
it wouldn’t even ask you, it would just take care of everything. -

Well then free up enough disk space, clean it all up and do a fresh install of FOG altogether.
-
@Sebastian-Roth this is resolved…error I am getting now is No Such File or Directory as seen in other post below…Any ideas?
-
@butch2861 Did you to a fresh install of FOG? I kind of doubt it. The file service/ipxe/boot.php missing sounds to me like… well incomplete install.
Is the IP in that URL correct? I mean is this your FOG server IP? Can you open that URL in your browser?
-
@Wayne-Workman The problem above is on the CLIENT end, not there server…server is okay from what I can tell; I edited the default.ipxe file and changed the Ip so good there…when I boot client it sees correct IP for Webserver and TFTP Server now but i get the error above about NO SUCH FILE OR DIRECTORY
-
Are you able to open that URL in your browser (from any PC within your network)?? If not then there is something wrong with your installation.
-
@Sebastian-Roth This is defiantly an issue with the new server; I fired up my other fog server that I have not de-commissioned yet and my client sees and boots to pxe no problems and starts download…could this be a pxe issue on new server? Error from client after seeing the webserver Ip and TFTP server on boot; basically right before it starts the small image copy this error comes up:
http://10.0.10.247/service/ipxe/boot.php…No Such File or Directory (http://ipxe.org/2d0c613b) Could Not Boot: Chainloading failed
-
Are you reading my posts at all? I am not going to repeat myself over and over again…
-
@Sebastian-Roth Yes as far as opening the links I did try that; this is where it takes me when I go to the ipxe.org link
http://ipxe.org/err/2d0c61first link it fails because I have the old server hooked up at this moment…I am by no mean trying to waste ANYONES time…and I would be GLAD to PAY someone to fix the issue…I have 700 devices to take care of everyday and am just 1 guy for a school District and was wanting to update to a new server before Testing starts in a couple weeks so i can re-image and also be ready for future Windows 10 deployments…now we are mostly 7; I REALLY do appreciate ALL the help 25+ years experience…but NOT much on Linux CLI so I can see where I would come off like an idiot that knows nothing…lol
-
The link I am talking about is this one: http://10.0.10.247/service/ipxe/boot.php
If your server is up and running and you cannot access this URL from any of your clients within this network, then something is definitely wrong with the installation. Possibly when installing the disk filled up and the installer was not able to copy all the files needed. Do a fresh install of FOG (possibly even the server OS) and see if it works out. What else can I say?

Just wanted to post an update on this as I didn’t last night.
I remoted in last night and we were able to successfully install fog 1.3.5 working branch (just to ensure alter tables was being set). This installed without any major issues.
Next we imported the originating fog server. This way we wouldn’t need to redefine image defs, register hosts, etc…
Then we starting copying the actual image data from the original fog server (this was where the drive got filled up and why.)
The reasoning for the unable to find issue was because the ip on the new was originally different than what set in the DB. This originally set the chain to get the main data at the wrong ip address. The next issue was it was missing the
/fog/
part of the url. This would’ve been fine if it was a docrooted setup, but it was not. -
BIG SHOUT OUT TO TOM!!! he is da man…saved by BACON…very nice to work with…appreciate all the work he did for me…I have a new Ubuntu 16.04.1 Server running 1.3.5 Fog…SWEET!!!

The server wasn’t OK at the time I posted what I did, it was out of space. This was not a fresh install of Ubuntu 16 /w fog if you were already out of space. The title of this thread should be changed.
