Given the weird problems I ran into with snapd and removing it on Ubuntu 18.0.4 LTS (Hyper-V quick start) I decided to download a Debian ISO, and recreate a new VM.
I made a server, non desktop install of Debian via the prompts after booting the VM from the .ISO.
It worked OK, although a couple of typical errors. PHP was version 7.3
Mysql couldn’t be downloaded/installed
libcurl3 couldn’t be downloaded/installed
I’ve managed to push past the php7.X issue (found a clue on a Hyper-V install):
sudo php_ver='7.3' php_verAdds='-7.3' ./installfog.sh
but now am getting errors with libcurl3. libcurl4 is installed.
MySQL has to be downloaded from Oracle I believe. I switched over to Mariadb-server and -client.
From checking the install script, it looks like with Debian, the $OSVERSION is 10? That seemed to try to load libcurl3 instead of libcurl4.
Based on another thread I found that talked about libcurl3, I edited the /opt/fog/.fogsettings file, and changed the packages line from libcurl3 to libcurl4, and changed mysql-* to mariadb-*
The install then worked!
