@vince-villarreal that’s the hope and those lines are added specifically so you can track the status more appropriately.

@tom-elliott That’s also at the very-tip-top of the ftp troubleshooting article, too. Saying that the problem is usually credentials, so go look at that first.

Also, this is the only FAQ that I could find (that I didn’t even know existed until now): https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=FAQ but there is no mention of FTP in there. I think that page should just be deleted since this information is covered in other places.

Turns out the error was related to DeepFreeze. A program that we use to prevent users from making changes to the public use computers in our Library.

The issue was resolved by opening the DeepFreeze console on the machine I was capturing from and clicking the button “Set Clone Flag”. This prepares the system for imaging and allows the hard disk partitions to be resized. After doing this step our deployments have all gone smoothly.

Thank you for all the help. Even though my issue was not FOG related. Hopefully our troubleshooting can help someone else down the road.

hello,
I couldn’t find a solution to unlock my situation, I tried many things on promox and on fog, without succes again. So I decided to start a new install on another post, separated from the proxmox and it’s working fine. I think I’ll keep this solution so, thanks for your help and sorry to leave an unsolved issue, see you later !

OK, got it.
This show and hide window confuse me a bit.
Thanks
Regards

I’m going to gues this is happening with kernel version 4.16.6? I ask because I found earlier the kernel architectures were backward. I’ve corrected this on the server, so you should be able to redownload the kernels and have success.

@george1421 @martinetwork I believe you can also use the following as a guide: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=CentOS_7

I have done this a dozen times in the last few weeks with no issues.

Essentially let http and other services through firewall (no need to disable it) and you can use the command:

setenforce 0

to temporarily disable SELinux. Its up to you at that point if you follow the guide and permanently set it to permissive or if you take the time to set the SELinux contexts required for it to all work.

Hope this helps

@tom-elliott Fixed. I’ll take back everything I thought bad of you man. Thanks 🙂

@daniel-dillard said in Group membership when adding hosts via CSV:

I just want to know if there is a way to do it by adding a column to the CSV for host import.

Yes, you can. For an example CSV, do: Web GUI -> Host Management -> Export Hosts. This will give you the format. In the same area, there is an Import Hosts link that will allow you to upload a CSV.

Any idea what the output shows? From what I can read, the Fog Server is seeing the request come in but I don’t have the experience enough to garner further support knowledge.

Thanx for the advice on the DNSMASQ. I’ll talk to my seniors about installing/configuring that hopefully this week.

@pijltje Hmm I don’t see that directory I am using Ubuntu (I know I know, first time fog when I have time I WILL switch been a pain honestly)

@BardWood Sorry, no change there. I don’t see any vendor class identification in the PCAP. I have searched the web up and down to see if others report similar issues but couldn’t find anything yet.

I really wonder if there is some kind of intermediate switch/router/firewall modifying the DHCP packets?!? Have you had FOG server and Mac client on the same switch yet?

I’m not sure if I should delete the information in the /images/dev/ or if I just need to change a setting somewhere.

@vince-villarreal what feature are you referring to? An image will deploy to a machine based on the storage nodes within a storage group. Assuming both storage nodes are in the same group, it uses a rudimentary load based system to determine which node to deploy the image from.

What version of fog are you using?

Everything seems to work fine until I go to use it, the web interface works no issue but the moment I go to image a pc it fails to pxe then I can’t get back on the web ui giving me err_connection_timed_out.

Ok, config for SELinux has been changed, did a reboot for testing, looking good so far.

Even if I still do not know, how the SELinux got enabled at all, it looks like the issue is solved.

Thank you very much to all of you guys who helped with the issue.

Cheers Nuit

@joe-schmitt Yes. Kaspersky starts when the snap-in finishes.

Sometimes the FOG Client will crash on other snap-ins, but setting the service to automatically restart fixes that issue. This is the only snap-in that does not always reboot after it is completed. I’ll play around with it, maybe adding a wait-time after Kaspersky is installed to let it do whatever it needs to will help.

Cool, I waited about an hour now and data has been transferring to the images folder.

Looks like it is working! I have another question, but will post it as a new topic
