@brmitmhart said in Fog Client Certificate Validation Failed:
We generated our own srvpublic.crt based on which certificates are needed so that you can connect to the https:// site without getting an error . https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=HTTPS#Custom_CA_and_certificates

We found that the ca.cert.pem did not work so rolled it back and that fixed the connection errors we were getting. We left the srvpublic.crt file in place and it connects to the HTTPS without error. I downloaded the client through the new fog server as well but had to configure it once installed to point to the same server which is expected however only get the errors above.

I rolled back the srvpublic.crt to the original one that came with the install of Fog on the server but with the same results.

Thank you,

I have built a new fog server on our network to replace the old one. It’s running the same version of fog but on a much older server OS. I have installed the client and pointed it to the new fog server however it will not validate the certificate. We did create a new one for our https setup however even when replacing the old one we get the same error. Below is the error in the fog.log.

@george1421 Thank you and I am aware of this however that does not solve the problem of the locations breaking the ability to remove Snapins, images and storage nodes.

I have setup a new FOG server using the working 1.6 version (1.6 .0 Alpha 1133). I have setup 3 storage nodes, including the primary fog server in our main office. After installing and enabling the Locations Plugin I am unable to delete any snapins through the Web GUI. This includes the files associated with the snapins. They can be removed from the DB directly and by manually removing the files however that seems cumbersome and I am concerned this might lead to a larger issue. Here are the errors I get in the log file. (var/log/php-fpm/www-error.log)

This is the line it is referencing.
