Right, you both confirmed what I’d seen about interface.

Concerning ip add change, the only file I can’t find is the pxe file. Its not in /tftpboot.

So to fix this whole thing i edited the .fogsetings file and I ran the fog install script again to set the ip address to my static one, as the last time I had used the automatic ip.

After that the client could register! Actually, there’s a list of correct things to do in the installation.txt file that I hadn’t read before, about setting static ip before install of fog. Perhaps the user guide should mention that file?

Thanks guys for this software…. We are donating 100s of computers to villages in the malayan jungle so fog is crucial.

Can I run the fog install script again to set the ip add?

so sorry, that prob wasn’t sarcasm on your part, now I see your yeah as like I’m heading in the right direction.

so I can connect to 127.0.0.1/fog but still not 192.168.1.1 which I changed to in fog UI

maybe that doesn’t matter??

alright then so thats just contacting the internet? if im unplugged it says server not found and I thought I needed the server!

Pls save me your sarcasm and look at my posts above. I need to set up isolated server. Are you really unwilling to offer help here?

I changed the IP as the guide shows, then restarted apache service

I login with [url]http://127.0.0.1/fog/[/url]

then it states Error contacting server - but that is with the ethernet internet pulled out

when I plugin again there’s “Estimated FOG sites: [B]4875”[/B]

Hi, I need some one to answer my question, if they could be a little patient!

My fog server IP was set up by the install script as [url]http://192.168.0.129[/url]

That was made because of connected to internet.

Now I want to go on isolated network, so how do I change the IP address? what to?

Note that installing using “isolated network” guide failed to let me connect to fog UI page.

OK, I can see the guide how to change the IP, in the fog settings, but I can’t find those other files to make changes.

can I use [url]http://192.168.1.1/[/url] ? but does the server IP need to change first? How do I do that??? I need step by step as I’m really tired!

Tahnks

So, if I use the automatic IP which the fog install script gives me, I can connect to the fog page.

But what do I do later on when I take the server off the internet/change network ??

I’m back again because, although I got to the fog management page, once I shifted the server off the internet, I couldn’t get there any more.

I really don’t understand IP settings much. When I ran the installer today, I answered yes to the suggested IP addresses, and got on, then move the pc to where we are making the network and couldn’t get into fog anymore.

I since found the user guide for installing for an isolated network and there it says to put in a static IP, and answer no to the next two IP questions. [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOG_on_an_Isolated_Network[/url]

But with that method, I couldn’t get into the fog page.

Today I re-installed Debian, and ran the fog install script - this time Mysql had no issue starting and I reached the fog management page.
the only thing I can think of last time that I had changed before installing fog was interfaces, I changed auto lo to auto eth0

This morning, apache log does not report an error when trying to connect to fog management, only this

I’m back, @wolf
I said that i didn’t just cut and paste that install line for fog 0.32, I downloaded 1.2.0 from big bold link on the fog home page. That 0.32 no longer exists anyways!

My problems: 1. Mysql failed to start during fog install… solution: I comment out bind-address
2. Cannot get to the fog management page when prompted to… Apache error log reports not connecting on 80
So I need a solution to this… it might be apache or mysql password - but I just installed mysql with blanks.

Thanks

thanks Tom, for doing your best to help, I’ve gotta go, its 2.37am here.

Ok, no I didn’t copy the exact command that is on that page, because I know fog has developed pretty fast over 2014, so I downloaded straight from the link to sourceforge, the tar.gz, fog 1.2.0

To be honest, the guide for say, Ubuntu 12.10, looks pretty much the same.

Well, you are correct in that Lenny is not my release of Debian.

I got to that page from the front page of the User Guide here [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOGUserGuide[/url]

link:
2 Installing FOG > 2.2 Installation on different distributions of Linux >> Debian > Debian Wheezy

Pls refer to top post! link to user guide for other versions of Linux - ie Debian. That’s what I followed, official fog pages right?

I only search for answers when problems happened, like not what was expected from following the guide.

I found that I should change Listen 80 to Listen 0.0.0.0:80 in /etc/apache2/ports.conf

for that apache error, and restart it, but I still can’t access fog in web browser

I last installed mysql without password, just blanks

plus what you suggest is not given in the user guide so how would I know (I’m not a server experienced person)

I have also purged mysql and let it install with fog too. the first time mysql simply wouldn’t start - until I hashed out the bind-address line - so i tried then to install it before fog.

this is debian not ubuntu!!
