I upgraded to v. 1.1.2 and everything went fine (after I ran the ‘yum remove dhclient’), only question now, is where is the images folder where I can put my custom boot iso’s? I noticed tftpboot isn’t there anymore. I also need to edit the default menu.
Thanks again,
Jim

Well I think I was having some sort of issue with version 1.1.2, maybe it was the dhcp conflict, it’s been a long day. But removing the dhclient and installing dhcp, then installing the .32 script worked. I can now get to the FOG Mgmt gui.
Thanks for your help!
I’ll try v1.1.2 soon.

First the install script didn’t install DHCP…

[root@localhost ~]# cd /opt
[root@localhost opt]# cd fog*
[root@localhost fog_0.32]# cd bin
[root@localhost bin]# ./installfog.sh

So now what?

And as a side note - I can’t access the FOG web gui management page, I changed the [SIZE=12px][FONT=Arial][COLOR=#000000]“MYSQL_PASSWORD” to a blank password[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] at ‘[SIZE=12px][FONT=Arial][COLOR=#000000]/var/www/fog/commons/config.php’, and there’s no such path as [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px][FONT=Arial][COLOR=#000000]‘/opt/fog/service/etc/config.php’ to change the other “MYSQL_PASSWORD”.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]

(As a 2nd side note, I already have a working FOG server, so I know it can be done, although I bought a newer computer to load Fedora (13 - old machine was with FOG.)

Please help, thank you very much.

I have installed FOG on my Fedore Core 7 box, and I am unable to get to the default management webpage ([URL=‘http://localhost/fog/management’][SIZE=12px][FONT=Arial][U][B][COLOR=#000000]http://localhost/fog/management[/COLOR][/B][/U][/FONT][/SIZE][/URL]). I created 'fog" in www, and copied everything from ‘packages/web/’ to ‘var/www/fog/’.

Now the problem is that I’m not sure if I’ve edited the ‘/var/www/fog/commons/config.php’ file correctly with the correct MySQL settings. I’m also not sure if the ‘/opt/fog_0.32/packages/service/etc/config.php’ file was also edited correctly.

And when I try to log into the MySQL server via the terminal using the username and password indicated in the config.php file, it doesn’t accept the password.
Any help would be greatly appricated!
Thanks.
