@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!

@tedlaur You can provide your error log from the install, but sometimes more fruitful is the actual php-fpm error (or on debian it may just be in the http error logs)

I don’t recall, and it has been a while since I did direct troubleshooting with fog. I can still read of course and probabaly help in that way, but my systems are limited as of late and as such harder for me to troubleshoot issues to try to replicate.

@Tom-Elliott said in FOG kernels and inits moving to github:

Majority of the time the Inits are built one off for some specific need. No where near the frequency of the kernels needing to be updated.

I don’t think that’s true. We do bug fixes and add features to the inits way more often than once a year (when at least the buildroot update is to be done). Take a look at the last dozen or so fos repo commits.

@dreN Great! Are you currently using the dev-branch version? Testing/using the latest dev-branch and reporting issues if you can. As well you are more than welcome to help on the documentation. Please send me a private message to discuss further steps.

Updated some of the links now that we moved to Libera.Chat.

@UWPVIOLATOR

Yes here -> https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/compare/1.5.8...1.5.9

@Sebastian-Roth Ok, thank you.

@Sebastian-Roth and anyone else who worked on this, great work on continually improving the client that some of us rely so heavily on!

@mwilcox @HG12 @Frxbenji Tom just fixed the webserver a few hours ago…

@Tom-Elliott said in Ubuntu is FOG's enemy:

apt-get -y remove unattended-upgrades

This saved my bacon, thank you very much, first command failed but second one worked, i have also run the unattended-upgrades command, once again thank you.

@lebrun78 Just be aware there is no way back to the 1.5.x version of FOG if you switched to working-1.6 now other than very messy manual manipulations in the database. We are working towards 1.6 and hope to have most users upgrade at some point. So I am not saying you shouldn’t. Just want to make sure you understand the consequences.

@astrugatch Quazz is spot on with what he says.

An issue was found in 1.5.6 that calls for an early next release to fix that. Find the details here if you run into problems with FTP connections on kernel updates or storage nodes in 1.5.6: https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/issues/311
