@Tom-Elliott Hi Tom the FOGUpdater script fails on the mirrorlist trying to download. Is it possible for me to download the latest version manually and then pass it to the fogupdater.sh

@Tom-Elliott Thanks for the prompt reply.

@Tom-Elliott I installed from a tar file into a seperate folder called /opt/fog/fogproject-1.5.4/ I used the .fogsettings file adapted to our situation from your example file.

@Tom-Elliott Hi Tom, so do I need to pass a parameter to the script to get the latest stable version and not dev ?

This is just a general question. I have fog 1.5.4 installed on Redhat 7.5 . I used a .fogsettings file to do the install. All is well but now we want to upgrade to 1.5.5. Can I use the FOGUpdater utility to upgrade ? and will it use the current .fogsettings ?

@Sebastian-Roth The problem seems resolved now. The repos that we have internally , because several versions of packages are available , the package names are eg. rh-php56 . This causes a problem when the services need to be started via systemd on RedHat . I created symlinks for php (/usr/bin/php) to point to the correct location of the binaries. Also I created symlinks in /etc/ for php.ini and php.d to point to the correct location. The location I found by running phpinfo() in a script from /var/www/fog/
The usual :
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
This then aligns the cli version (and of course what systemd uses) with what the webserver (apache) uses

@Sebastian-Roth Hi Sebastien I placed a small test php script in the http docroot and run it from the webserver

/var/www/fog/test.php
<?php
echo “result of posix_getpid()”;
echo posix_getpid();
?>

If I run the php command posix_getpid() seperately there is no problem

I am running RedHat 7 on VMWARE EMX virtual. After clean install I get the following error on FOG processes.

FOGMulticastManager[13688]: PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function posix_getpid() in /opt/fog/service/lib/service_lib.php on line 195

Also the common error of the /opt/fog/log only has a servicemaster.log
I already set the rc.local to delay startup with 30 sec as proposed in a previous thread. but so far still the same

I managed to make a simple symlink on the /usr/lib/systemd/system/ folder
php-fpm.service -> /usr/lib/systemd/system/rh-php56-php-fpm.service and this seemed to clear the problem.

thank you
