I was having this same problem and posted about it in [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/cannot-create-tasks-task-manager-blank.3823/#post-9593’]here[/URL]. The solution was to remove all of the ‘&’ symbols from the arguments in one of the config files. View the thread for more info.

Well, thank you for your suggestions chad-bisd; I think we’ve found a solution. Every time I would try to schedule a task I’d see another error similar to the one above show up in the apache logs. At the end of the line I found “&$tmp”. After removing the ‘&’ symbol I would get another error, but referencing new line, which would of course have “&$tmp” at the end. I finally did a search/replace on all instances of “&$tmp” replacing them with “$tmp” (just removing the & symbol). Immediately after that I tried to schedule an upload and was met with the correct confirmation screen under task management.

Thank you for your help.

For other users with this issue, here is specifically what I did. I can’t guarantee it will work for everyone, but it seems to have corrected it for me at least:

gksu gedit /var/www/fog/management/includes/tasks.confirm.include.php
Search Menu > Replace
Search for: &$tmp
Replace with: $tmp
Replace All (there were somewhere around twenty instances)
Save
Close
Then try to schedule your upload task again.

I tried removing the ‘&’ symbol from the argument list, but that doesn’t seem to have made a difference.

Hi Chad. Thanks for the response. I tried different browsers and from different machines with the same result. I am fairly noobish when it comess to linux, but I managed to find the apache logs. here’s what I am seeing:

I’m not sure what that means though - like I said, I’m new to this. Did I not configure something corrrectly?

Just finished setting up Fog 0.32 on Ubuntu 12.10 today, and I am experiencing exactly the same problem. I’ve got a host & image created, but when I attempt to upload it sends me to a blank Task Management page with no options or buttons. Anyone have ideas or suggestions? Thanks.
