You seem to have a hard time with timezones. Weird. I have tried twice today and did not get this error.
I believe fedora now tries to do some geoip identification. Maybe it's trying to guess your machine's approximate location based on the IP and it gets confused?
Can you try again?

Ok, installed this time. On first reboot, the screen was blank. I hit a few keys and text showed up. Once it finished, it rebooted.
Amahi did not work until I rebooted. Then had to restart httpd and hda-ctl to get the dashboard up and running.
Checked the logs and nothing looked wrong.

now -- did you restart hda-ctl because it was stopped? Did you check if it was running?
it's supposed to be running, since it's enabled by default.
how about httpd -- same thing ... was it running?
how did you realize it needed to be restarted? or just did it intuitively?
i think this one it working reliably for me (despite the reboot needed to restart the network).
we need a checklist to release Amahi 7 -- in your view, what items are "must fix" to release?

Looks like httpd failed to start. I restarted the HDA, but it still did not start. Did a restart of the service and it is running now.
I rebooted the HDA again and it failed to start. Looking for logs to indicate why it is not starting. httpd error log indicates a problem.

useful. this may have changed in f19.
can you take a look at /etc/http.d/* and */* in there for references to F18-VM-64 (not case sensitive - use grep -i F18-VM-64 * */*).
not sure if that reference to your HDA DNS name is somehow created by apache on the fly or it's something fedora makes up, or it's something the amahi installer does.

This is what I got from the grep:

no, no ... cd into /etc/http.d/
i am interested in the configuration files.
i want to see the source of this issue. (i do not get this in my install)

That's where I ran the grep from, well /etc/httpd as there is no http.d directory that I could see.
This is what is in that directory.
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Jul 12 18:48 conf
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Jul 12 18:52 conf.d
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Jul 12 18:48 conf.modules.d
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 19 Jul 12 18:48 logs -> ../../var/log/httpd

you are correct! my bad (i should have looked it up).
i see there is no reference in the config files, so maybe apache looks up the name somehow ... perhaps from running hostname, and in the case of this VM that name does not exist in the DNS server and it bails out ..
it's a little brittle from apache doing this. perhaps we should default all hostnames to localhost, just to make sure this does not occur. if we see this issue coming up more we will have to do that.
thanks for the info.
now, let's put this one in the back-burner and see what else we need to release this baby!

In my test VM, both start ok.
Next issue is creating a user upon initialization ... because the express install does NOT force the person installing to create a regular user ...
this requires a change in the platform.
