I think that’s a bit “extreme”. I would certainly hope FOG is not a “life or death” situation.

(At least I would hope people aren’t threatening other’s lives over it).

Glad we could help though.

@Wayne-Workman hah lol

Oh, Ok thanks 🙂

@Tom-Elliott You are a super-human. Thank you so much! It works wonderfully.

@Wayne-Workman Awesome! I ran the commands on this page and my site is up and running! Thanks. There were some questions about DHCP and PXE in the install which I didn’t really know how to answer but if I answered it wrong I will probably trash the VM and start again as it’s quite quick.

Now I need to do some reading about capturing an image!

@Wayne-Workman said in install fog offline:

FOG 1.2.0 is obsolete now, so is Ubuntu 10. And it’s just a bad idea to use anything but the latest LTS version of Ubuntu for a new build.
Until well ago was the official version, this I say, are LiveCD with FOG 1.2. installed so you only have to install and configure.
Fog 1.3.4 still gives errors, we are testing it, so I think this is a good solution to install without connection.

In any case you can always try …

@george1421 OK! At last it’s now working! the info from my friend here : https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8668/qnap-nas-storage worked awesome! It’s sad that I cannot see the status of my NAS storage on my web fog management->home but I could see it on my NAS

@Smennywheek to debug the client, look at / provide the C:\fog.log file on the host with issues.

@cnkpadobi I’d like you to start with this: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6400/usb-boot-uefi-client-into-fog-menu-harder-way

Don’t let the title scare you. Its not really that hard. What you will do here is create an iPXE boot stick that will launch you into the iPXE FOG menu. The only thing that you need to be concerned with is the iPXE kernel have built in usb support for the generic network adapter.

If that process fails we can build a FOS usb boot stick and bypass iPXE altogether.

Thank you

@Wayne-Workman i won the race 😉

@Tom-Elliott maybe hes asking about the technology a node is talking with the main fog system, (sql, ftp etc.)

Regards X23

@Tom-Elliott It’s working perfectly, thanks 🙂

@Joe-Schmitt
Thank you Joe. Following the steps as described in the wiki worked and fixed it. At first I wrongly assumed that I only temporarily disabled the service and it fixed the issue. Turned out the service needed to be started again after sysprep.

@Tom-Elliott

Perfect! Thank you.

@Chrisjmuk And remember where you cloned the fogproject to for next time. Now you have two copies of it on your server. You could probably find them with this:
find / | grep installfog.sh

@Tom-Elliott Yes, “imaged to the server” meaning captured. Thanks for the correct reference Host=deployed, Images=Captured. I was looking at this a different way. We use FOG only for saving images of customized hosts (about 20) in our environment. Thanks!

@Tom-Elliott The script you posted had a few issues, I’ve fixed them up. A mistyped variable in the first loop, and I added code to update the snapinAssoc IDs too so those aren’t lost. I’ve submitted a pull request.

All, the improved script will be available here:
https://github.com/FOGProject/fog-community-scripts

This is just a hold-over honestly. We need a big and comprehensive script to just cleanup and re-order everything. Locations, images, snapins, groups, everything - as well as running cleanup commands that we know fixes stuff and can’t hurt but can only help.
