Reporting back… latest versions works like a champ!

Thanks Sebastian, I’m trying it out today.

I did checkout the dev-branch… but yeah sure I’ll be your huckleberry… err guinea pig.

For reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8OWNspU_yE

@Sebastian-Roth Keep forgetting about Snapshots… thats what I get for being in a hurry.

Ok so I’ve got an updated OS and following the steps here: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Getting_FOG I’ve pulled the dev-branch. So I should be good for the install script yes? (I’m not super experienced with git so I’m not feeling positive I actually have the full dev-branch source)

@Sebastian-Roth Oh it’s exactly as described and exactly what happened the first go-round.
Since it’s in a failed state… let me do this. I’ll re-re-flatten the guest and start over. Fresh 19.10 install, ‘apt update/upgrade’ then I’ll run the fog installer from the dev-branch and see what happens.

Well this is disappointing. So due to an unrelated issue I decided to flatten this guest and build anew. I figured it’d be good since now I know the right version to use.
So flattened, new 19.10 install and the Apache service is still an issue. Even with installing the dev branch.
Manually installed php7.3, apache2, libmodule-apache, etc… not a thing I do now alleviates the failed to restart web services error.

Ah I do see the port listed this way… a vanilla ‘netstat | less’ did not show :69 anywhere. Hence my confusion.

Ok so I was able to successfully PXE boot to a KVM guest, just not on a physical one yet.

So I know FOG works which is great!

Now I need to explore the settings and figure out how to successfully pull an image. Thanks for the help!

Am I correct in assuming that I should be able to see port 69 open via NMAP?

Thanks for the continued help Sabastian.

No, iptables is not configured on this machine:

sudo iptables -L -n -v

Admittedly yesterday and previous our DHCP functions were handled at the firewall level. I had thought maybe there was some issue with that and since I’ve been meaning to do this anyway… last night I moved those functions to my domain controller (Server 2016). So the DHCP Options are configures correctly except a test PXE boot on a laptop behind me failed. It’s an HP so I didn’t get much feedback so I’m not sure the exact cause at this time.

Thanks Guys! I’ll def be giving 1.6 a try. This is a new test server and has nothing else on it… if I need to nuke it to start over so be it.

So the dev-branch installed like a champ, I can pull up and login to the web gui. Except some process must not be running, nmap shows no port 69 listening.
Test clients fail to pxt boot claiming a tftp timeout.

Went ahead and rebooted… journalctl only shows issues with FogSnapinReplicator starting and stopping ever second.

So I’ve been fighting this install all day now. Manually installed php 7.3, and apache2. Reboot, check apt for updates… I cannot get around this blasted Apache service error. Googled earlier and found a reference to Ubunt u 16.04 where the person added a “ServerName localhost” line to the apache2.conf file. Tried that… no help.
