    @chunter2 Ah, yes that would do it.
    That just becomes the default value when creating new hosts.
    If you set it via a group, it will update those values on all hosts in a given group, but it doesn’t do that dynamically/perpetually.

    By “10.149.50.21:/images” I was referring to the “images” directory in the filesystem on the storage node at the IP address 10.148.50.21

    So to check the actual contents of the “/images” directory, you’ll need to either:

    1 - have a display and keyboard directly connected to that storage node (PC) to log into it and view the filesystem with whatever File Explorer type app its GUI desktop supplies OR

    2 - open a terminal / command line on that storage node PC, either at a display/keyboard connected to the storage PC or across the network with SSH.

    In any case, the contents of the storage node’s /images directory should be (mostly) subdirectories that are named exactly the same as your saved/captured images.

    Example:

    If you intended to capture an image called “Teacher_Pc”, the storage node’s /images directory should contain a subdirectory named “Teacher_Pc”

    In my case, I have captured an image I named “20250319-7010-adult-builder”. Here is a truncated directory listing on one of my storage nodes:

    root@node25-0:/images# ll total 140 drwxrwxr-x 32 fogproject fogproject 4096 Aug 12 11:19 ./ drwxr-xr-x 25 root root 4096 Aug 12 09:33 ../ drwxrwxr-x 2 fogproject fogproject 4096 Jul 31 10:05 20250319-7010-adult-builder/ drwxrwxr-x 2 fogproject fogproject 4096 Jul 31 10:06 20250327-7010-deploy-test/

    If somehow you have managed to get the image name (directory name) to be “, Image name Teacher_Pc” then I’ll not be surprised if parsing (text handling) errors happen within FOG when you try to use that image name. In that case, the directory can be renamed to “Teacher_Pc”, BUT that directory name must match in one field recorded in the fog database on the FOG server.

    Let’s see what you’ve got in the “/images” directory first.

    @Tom-Elliott Hi Tom, Thanks… I updated to 1.5.10.1692 and was able to deploy a 2 day old image to the PC. I updated some things on the PC, mostly with Steam and display settings then went to capture an image from it again and ran into the same problem mention in the OP. Only this time, I was able to take a pic.

    I ran chkdsk prior to capturing and it came up clean

    UPDATE: So I tried everything for the ntfsresize error … turns out, I had to shrink the partition in windows a bit then expand it. After that, I could capture.

    @Sebastian-Roth Sorry for missing your reply. Just shows that fog has been running great for a while.

    I like the thought of adding better debugging log messages so I think this would be helpful.

    @ProfessorFow There is the ability to replicate images across groups. You can set which “groups” images need to replate to by associating images to multiple storage groups. You can even define which storage group is the primary.

    @diogo-seabra As for the picture, I think we need to clearly define your network.

    dnsmasq works by using broadcast messages. So that means dnsmasq will only work on the local subnet. If your pxe booting computers are on a different subnet then you will need to add the fog server’s IP address to the list in the dhcp relay service on your router.

    Also if you have dhcp snooping enabled on your network switches, that may also cause dnsmasq to not respond properly.

    @BrightPipe said in FOG not saving images in the directory:

    EDIT---- Running the installer again seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks.

    Good deal because that was going to me my next request. I’m glad you have it sorted out.

    @RAThomas If the value is empty it shoudl think it’s false, and since it seemed to be random that’s where I got confused. But I’m glad this is working for you.

    Thank you!

    @Selanty
    I have the same problem, fresh installed Fog on Debain 12, PHP 8.2.29, Fog 1.5.10.1667.
    Fog-Server is running on the same switch as the 2 Clients in one VLAN 2765. For that VLAN ip igmp is enabled.
    “sh ip igmp” on that aruba switch shows:
    -IGMP version : 2
    -Querier Address : 10.73.65.21 (vlan-address of a second switch witch plays as querier)
    -the querier ist running igmp v2

    “service FOGMulticastManager status” result is:
    PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Non-static method FOGService::outall() cannot be called statically in /opt/fog/service/FOGMulticastManager/FOG>

    unicast to that 2 clients is running.

    I have done this before on a Cisco switch but it’s been a while. Thought I share my notes on what commands are needed

    # Vlan131 (fog server vlan) ip helper-address 192.168.158.255 # Vlan158 (fog client on a different vlan) ip directed-broadcast 101 # ip access-list extended 101 access-list 101 permit udp host 192.168.131.149 any eq 9 * NOTE in the ACL above 192.168.131.149 is the fog server ip address # forward udp ip forward protocol udp 9 (it might say discard) # On the switch the two vlans look something like this interface Vlan131 description fog server vlan ip address 192.168.131.1 255.255.255.0 ip helper-address 192.168.131.3 (my dhcp & dns server) ip helper-address 192.168.158.255 (fog client subnet broadcast address) end interface Vlan158 description fog client vlan ip address 192.168.158.1 255.255.255.0 ip directed-broadcast 101 (extended ACL) end

    Hope it helps

    Hi there
    If someone else reads this and they aren’t using autoexec.ipxe (just the default.ipxe like me) and still has this error I’ve got the solution that worked for me:

    I had to downgrade the GRUB version from 2.12 to 2.06 in my Linux images (mostly Kali Linux).
    Version 2.12 has a bug (bug #67078) which is mentioned here: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?67078

    The downgrade works as follows:
    Create a pin file: sudo vim /etc/apt/preferences.d/grub-pin
    Content of the file:

    Package: grub* grub2* Pin: version 2.06* Pin-Priority: 1001

    sudo apt update
    Downgrade grub packages: sudo apt full-upgrade
    sudo grub-install
    sudo update-grub
    verify the installed version: dpkg -l | grep grub-common

    You can now capture and deploy the the image.

    Edit: of course I am and was using the latest FOG 1.5.10.1667 with newest Kernel and Initrd versions.

    @Clebboii These warnings are safe to ignore. While the REQUEST_METHOD issue you’re seeing has already been fixed in dev-branch, the dashboard page issue you’re seeing is just because sometimes the values are set, sometimes they’re not. Unfortunately there’s no real way to validate cleanly. (at least right away or easily at this point in time. But it’s not causing issues.)

    I’m not seeing there being issues with the files syncing? It seems, to me, the location it’s sending the file to (192.168.140.39) isn’t accepting ftp?
