    In the start of the week same of our PCs suddenly got an error. After the FOG start menu we got this error:

    Starting bootmgfw.efi Using load options '' Secure Boot validation failure loading bootmgfw.efi!

    Our PC support told us to update our BIOS because of new signatures (Starting directly on Windows without FOG in between gave us also a Invalid signature error). After the update we can boot into Windows, but now we have problems booting into FOG.
    It’s loading the NBP file and iPXE is starting, then we getting the following error

    iPXE 1.20.1+ Configuring (net0 xx:xx........) .......... No configuration methods succeeded (http://ipxe.org/040ee186) Configuring (net0 xx:xx........) .......... No configuration methods succeeded (http://ipxe.org/040ee186)

    After that I go into the PXE shell and try typing dhcp. This gives me an “OK” always after the 2nd try. So im again in the FOG starting menu and want to boot into Windows and I’m getting the following error:

    http://......... refind.conf ......... Connection times out (http://ipxe.org/4c0a6092) Could not boot: Connection timed out (http://ipxe.org/4c0a6092) Could not boot: Connection timed out (http://ipxe.org/4c0a6092)

    Our setup is:
    Your version of FOG is up to date.
    You’re running the latest stable version: 1.5.10
    Custom signed files with this tutorial: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/15888/imaging-with-fog-and-secure-boot-poc
    Changed from ipxe.efi to snponly.efi didn’t helped.

    Someone knows what’s the problem here and how to solve it? Do I need to update the FOG server or just update the pxe file?

    Thanks in advance

    @Tom-Elliott I really appreciate that you are putting effort into providing more frequent releases, which makes it easier for everyone to deploy new security fixes in time. Keep up the good work!

    @youzersef Ok, see how long it takes me to get back on a project…lol

    I did some more looking, and found yes, the GUI will re-write the dhcp config file. However I did some more reading and I guess services.inc determines what is written by the GUI.

    Sorry, not a CLI guy, and I love the quick and easy edits, viewing issues that the GUI provides. Like Fog ! However my servers are headless…lol

    Anyway, looking that route now, and will update if I find how Negate wants services edited so when it reboots, DHCP will remain.

    Determined 🙂

    Any thank you everyone here . This place has always been great for information !

    new topic - porting images and metadata from 1.5.9 to 1.5.10

    @Tom-Elliott

    So I finally started needing to use this install as our old server is failing. Anyway, what I am running into a problem now deleting and using images which I transferred over from our 1.5.9 fog set up. I get errors on imaging these undefined property. I earlier had errors in the list all images directory - which updated each image manually - attemping to check in fails. - the exact line is in /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/task.class.php

    I think there is something still missing in the images I ported over from out 1.5.9 set up. my colleague who uses this server loaded the metadata from the 1.5.9 set up and is where these errors started, When I try to delete a host or image - I get a ‘invalid’ login error. I have the firewall and SElinux disabled on this server as it is not on the internet.

    I am using bzimage version 6.12.35 I can add a host and PXE boot so that is not the issue. here. I tried to scrap all these images and just manually add all these reusing the image files I have but I can’t delete anything,

    Sure I can go full nuclear and reinstall everything from scratch but kinda want to avoid that.

    I spent some time with mysql trying to get around the 'invaild login" error issue I am running into.

    I can try to run the installer again so see if I can wipe this database and schema.

    Matt
