I have built a vanilla box, installed fog and restored my configuration … and it all worked! I was able to boot via pxe and uefi on the first try of each.

I will chalk this up to both the blank mysql password and a miss named bzImage file. As it is all working with the “bad” backup config, I will ask that this ticket be closed. One day, if I’m bored enough, I’ll try another restore again and see if it will fail.

Thank you for all the help! It is greatly appreciated.

@mtanigawa lol, what would you suggest to make it infiltrate better? I can change the article if you can come up with something better.

Thanks for the updated feedback. I will look into the hiding the password as suggested - the script I wrote is probably crude and ugly.

I have another (unrelated) question to ask, but tomorrow and on a new thread.

Thank you again for your time and appreciate the great help and support.

Remoted in and found that the server was in fairly funky state.

It is ubuntu 12.04, and while we typically recommend to update, this particular issue was simply due to ondrej attempting to install php 7, but the packages variable on fogsettings was pre-labelled as php 5. Removed the packages variable and php/apache on the node, updated the php version stored in the fogsettings, reinstalled ondrej, and re-ran installer .

Great to hear! Thank you for the update! Thank you also for the quick replies and hard work. It is enormously appreciated. Will await RC-11 and give it a go.

Thank you again.
