No fog can use its own storage, in my experience I have always used a DHCP server to dole ip addresses, I have never successfully used a static network. I set fog at a static ip address so it never changes, and you can set your machines at static ip addresses, but in my experience pxe booting, something needs to be giving addresses for the machines to have during the boot process.

If you are not interested in using a DHCP server, look into the dnsmasq option and server proxy ip addresses for the pxe boot process only.

IMHO I think it a better idea to use DHCP and just reserve your addresses to a MAC, but to each his own.

DNSMASQ can help with supplying the boot server and file name to multiple subnet, it may be something to think about.

And you have restarted apache2?

Is there another line in the config with a different timezone set? If there is one further down it will override the line you are setting.

You can download the kernel from here too

Many many thanks, I used now rev. 1455 and 64bit access it´s successful!

I must learn Linux basics …

So i was able to use the rename command to rename the image and move it up a directory.
so at this point what could be my issue?

When you select an option from the PXE menu, such as Full Host Registration and Inventory, FOG always uses the default bzImage. After a host is registered, you can specify which kernel to use for all tasks created and scheduled through the FOG web UI. If you have to manage multiple bzImage files for compatibility reasons, use the “Host kernel” setting for each host to specify the kernel that works best for that system. You can also group hosts, and update all host kernel settings for particular group of hosts. Just remember that groups in FOG 0.32 are a bit unusual. They are used for changing settings on all hosts in the group, but will not show your existing group settings.

The only method, I know of, to check the kernel version is to boot a system in debug mode and run the command:
[code]uname -rm[/code]
This command will tell you what version and architecture the kernel is in. As it’s FOG 0.32, most likely the kernel arch is 32 bit (x86) but I can’t give you much more. However, I wouldn’t think you would need to go through all of that. If you know a kernel that works in one place, why not just rsync or ftp that kernel to all the other sites directly. As you stated, it works in one place, but not another, it’s obviously due to the kernel’s NOT being the same. At least that’s how I’m seeing it.

Run the new installer.

WOW, okay so if I start to image the VM with Server 2012 then cancel it, change the image back to 2008 R2 and then re deploy, it images…

[quote=“Petrus4, post: 25133, member: 23409”]still no luck. may have to backup and re-install the server. What is the best Ubuntu OS version to install 0.32 on?[/quote]

I use 10, 11, 12, 13 all seem to be good and stable… I would stay away from the older versions though as they are no longer in development.

I prefer the gnome desktop variant opposed to that Unity crap! Of course that is preference 🙂

Not a problem I knew it had to be a windows something. I use Windows XP to host my virtual software, I don’t face this problem 😉

go to the end of this post,

this what help me to understand

Ultimately, this is a modern FOG, so I’d recommend a modern OS level for 0.33.

It really doesn’t matter which OS, though I’ve really only tested thoroughly on CentOS as that’s what I run at home. I’ve performed a few installs on Ubuntu and Debian so far, and others have done so on Mageaia (or however it’s spelled). It seems to work well from what I have seen, on all systems.

Yes it did; thank you!

I back all of the images to another FOG server using rsync; worked very well via crontabs

[CODE]sudo rsync -azvv -e ssh root@192.168.248.113:/images/HP* /images/[/CODE]

You have to ssh at least ONCE to the source FOG so that the certificate gets added; then it works with no interaction

Thanks for replying, but I don’t think this is the case. The rest of the computers are all on the blue screen that says “Please wait”, which comes after the “Checking in…” screen. It seems to me that this issue is related to another thread I posted a while ago: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-host-registration-hangs.10247/[/url]

I’ve looked at the actual code, and the thing is, FOG seems to get stuck trying to do a mysql_connect() call sometimes. I’ve increased the MySQL MAX_CONNECTIONS setting to 1000 from 100, which was the default, but I haven’t had any luck in solving this particular issue.

Try the command
[code]sed ‘s:&$tmp:$tmp:g’ -i /var/www/fog/management/includes/tasks.confirm.include.php[/code]

I tried the two ideas on the wiki. I also tried changing the ownership of the folders with no luck. I will try what you just suggested and see what happens.

Thanks
