The error in FOG 1.3.0 is "Could not mount images folder (/bin./fog.download)" as pictured below.

Could not mount images folder.png

In the folder on your server, check for the .mntcheck files. If these are not there then perform the following commands [Linux Systems Only]

touch /images/dev/.mntcheck

touch /images/.mntcheck


If still receiving the same error message after perfroming the above commands, you may need to edit /etc/exports to include your new mount point, i.e. /data/images and /data/images/dev with corresponding permissions.

See following examples of /etc/exports:


/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=0)
/images/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)
/data/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=0)
/data/images/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)
