@Tom-Elliott Thanks for the reply. I noticed PHP 8 support in the release notes so I’m guessing that the comment in the source code of the management page is just out of date. No worries. It seems like I should not have a problem using Debian 12.5 but for some reason I get a blank page when I click on /fog/management webpage during the install. I’ll try again with debian 12.5 standard … maybe Lynx would work?

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you for this update. I’m curious … do you know the release schedule (or if there is one)? I’ve been doing some test installs and it looks like php 5 is a dependency that seems to be problematic for me. I’ve found I can get past it using Debian 11 but would rather use something a little more current. I’m grateful for all the FOG team has done on this project. Its a life saver!

I have downloaded fog and dev fog ZIP files. I get to the database scheme update and get stuck … the web page just comes up blank.

Anyone up for a the challenge of getting me thru this?
