@Wayne-Workman I actually created a fog database from MySQL Workbench with no problem, however, I didn’t realize my account doesn’t have a MySQL password, but the mysql and root accounts do and fog was using one of those! So, that’s why there was a permissions problem. I installed the trunk and built it and it worked! I did however, have to comment out the configureMySql call because it wasn’t defined in the trunk. I guess someone removed its definition so it failed because the installation.sh script still called it!
"I’m so happy… " I can now go on with my PXE thing and proceed with the software phase of my new server.

@Wayne-Workman Thx. I installed the trunk via git so I’m at 1.3.X FOG, but now I just get a blank screen when I run the schema update. Probably a buffer overrun of errors. I probed the PHP and got the first error,
Update ID: 1 - 0
Database Error:
Access denied for user ‘root’@‘localhost’ (using password: NO), Message: Check that database is running
Database SQL:
CREATE DATABASE fog
So, now I know it’s a permissions problem! Or at least that’s the first thing I need to fix!

@sudburr I tried building Fog 1.2.0 from the tarball and it failed to create the Fog database in MySQL. I noticed the www directory appears to be correct.
My MySQL installation has a root account with no password, so I’m wondering if there’s still some sort of permission/authentication issue or if the fact that I’m running GnuCash which I configured to use the Innodb engine vs. the MyISAM which the logs seem to indicate FOG is using.

Please let me know if you have any advice on what direction I should look first before I start debugging the PHP code used to install the database.
