I’m having a similar problem. I updated to the latest trunk build, and when I try to install the new client it says “Failed to download CA certificate” then backs out of the installer.

@Wayne-Workman I will keep that in mind and share anything I find.

@ch3i actually, I think i’ll try the trunk version, I can swap between my VM and my physical by changing the IP and bootfile on my dhcp server.

related but slightly off topic question…
my IP Phone system also uses option 66, I cleaned out option 66 for fog’s use, but, is there a way for the two to co-exist?

This is what I did have there, and when i’m done with imaging tasks will put back if the need arises.

TftpServers=172.16.253.254,FtpServers=172.16.253.254:/ADTRAN,FtpLogin=,FtpPassword=,Layer2Tagging=True,VlanID=253

I managed to resurrect my VM (version 0.27) and have it taking an image.

I’m still going to work on getting the V1.2.0 working correctly, but till then, I have computers to image.

@Wayne-Workman ok, tried re-running the installer, no change.
also sent a disable command for the ufw then rebooted.
on reboot the tftp seems to have stopped working. I am getting this…

pxe-e32: TFTP open timeout

@Wayne-Workman This particular laptop was initally imaged with the VM version of FOG.
I grabbed a fresh laptop and tried to boot it, same result.
connection timed out this time i got an error code of 4c126035 which pointed me to a line of code in the tftp.c source. line 528

That line is in the tftp_timer_expired function.

as a programmer, this is telling me it’s trying to connect but not getting a response. so I must have something configured incorrectly, some step I missed somewhere in the install process.

Would a firewall or something else simple like that prevent communication? if so, where in ubuntu 12.04 would I disable that? (sadly, i’m a windoze guy, Just haven’t had a linux environment to work with before.)

@Wayne-Workman no, I have a single dhcp server.

ok, changed to the KKpxe version, here’s the video of what happened.

Also, by current version of Fog I did mean 1.2.0

I was using the fog VM version, it crashed becuase I filled up the hard drive.
so I started fresh with a physical install.

Ubuntu 12.04
ran through the install for the current version. no errors
changed the option 66/67 on my dhcp to the recommended values
When I try to boot up a laptop to take an image it gets into default.ipxe then tells me it timed out then tries to boot into windows.

I could use some help.
