Hello,
on my clients Linux - Ubuntu 20 and CentOS 7 - when I stop FOGService, it takes exactly 1m30 to stop.
The version on the server is FOG 1.5.8 and the version on the clients is 0.11.19
I have not found any parameter which could explain that long time.
Thanks for your help,

@Sebastian-Roth said in I can't install the Fog client on CenOS 8:

https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-lin-centos

Thanks a lot. With this method it works.

Hum again. The packages that are to be installed are those of CentOS 7, and I should uninstall some packages on my CentOS 8, such as giflib and emacs, in order to install the mono packages…
The repo download.mono-project.com_repo_centos_ does not provide packages for CentOS 8

Hum. I’m quite sorry, I just see the solution on the Fog wiki; it works
(so you can add CentOS 8 in the list of Linux distros).

To install the Fog client, I used ‘mono SmartInstaller.exe’. But for CentOS 8, the rpm’s mono are now on the repo https://extras.getpagespeed.com/redhat/8/$basearch/
and I must pay to get them -which is not possible in my university.
I have tried to use the command mono that comes from the package of CentOS 7, but it does not work : the messages are

Is there another solution than using mono packages ?

Okay, now the client gets the information from the server without error and can execute a task launched from the server.
Thanks a lot.

No, there is not the 302 redirect in the log. It’s as if the server receives no demand from the client.
I don’t find the IP address of the client in the other files in /var/log/httpd.

The result is the same:
on the client the message error is again
“Communication ERROR: SSL connection error: System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509ChainStatus[]”
and on the server nothing is logged.

@Sebastian-Roth said in CentOS 7 client fails to connect:

wget --no-check-certificate https://fogus/fog/management/other/ssl/srvpublic.crt

The log on the server is:

148.60.3.96 - - [27/Jan/2020:17:02:17 +0100] "GET /fog/management/other/ssl/srvpublic.crt HTTP/1.1" 200 1749 "-" "Wget/1.14 (linux-gnu)"

We do not use a custom certificate.
I have installed this new version on the client. The error message in fog.log is now :

--------------------------------Authentication--------------------------------

 1/27/2020 2:29:05 PM Middleware::Communication ERROR: Error: TrustFailure (Authentication failed, see inner exception.)

On the server, I have had a log (in /var/log/httpd/access_log) when I installed the client :

148.60.3.96 - - [27/Jan/2020:14:16:38 +0100] "GET /fog/management/other/ca.cert.der HTTP/1.1" 200 1287 "-" "-"

But, after, when I restart the Fog service on the client, nothing is logged on the server.

My server Fog (CentOS is in Https. On the client (CentOS 7) when I start the Fog service, I get in its log:

--------------------------------Authentication--------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1/27/2020 11:16 AM Client-Info Version: 0.11.17

 1/27/2020 11:18 AM Middleware::Communication ERROR: Error: TrustFailure (Authentication failed, see inner exception.)

In the log of the server /var/log/httpd/access_log, nothing is reported for that client.

So the client receives no information about the tasks on the server.

Another thing is the status of the Fog service on the client: this status claims that the file /opt/fog-service/service.lock does not exist. But it exists and contains the Pid of the process.

systemctl status FOGService -l

Thanks for your help.

Hello,
I have installed xprintidle by rpm. Now there is no more error in the user log; however, the auto-logout does not happen.
In the user config, I activate the screensaver, but not the suspend.

Hello,
I have installed libXScrnSaver-devel (by dnf) and xprintidle (by pip).
The file xprintidle.py is in /usr/lib64/python-2.7/site-packages.
But on the user log I have:
—AutoLogOut—
User ERROR: Unable to get user inactivity time
User ERROR: ApplicationName=‘xprintidle’, CommandLine=‘’, CurrentDirectory=‘’, Native error= Cannot find the specified file

I tried to install xprintidle under python3.5 by “pip3 install xprintidle” but this fails.
Thanks for all
