Hmm Ok what does your multicast.log say for both the master storage node and the main distribution server say. (there are separate logs on all nodes and servers) That might help diagnose,

oh and did you multicast before in your school? I saw a few places where switches dont support multicast so the packets where not being routed right.

Backup the fog database using mysqldump.
Backup /var/www/fog, /opt/fog/, and /tftpboot using tar or other backup utilitie.
Download the fog_0.32.tar.gz files from sourceforge.
Extract it and run the /bin/installfog.sh script. It will upgrade the necessary components. Open the webUI. You should be prompted to update your Fog Schema (database layout).

You’ll need to put your 3.3.3 kernel back in place if you currently have it saved as bzImage.

Hi

I have managed somehow to fix the problem i was having.

Here is a copy of my lighttpd.conf file, hope this of use to someone with the same or similar problem.

lighttpd.conf (see attached file)

I believe [URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Bypass_Host_Registration’]THIS[/URL] is what you’re talking to Chad…

Thanks for this thread guys! I think I mistakenly set my MySQL password during install of FOG 0.32 to an Ubuntu 12.4 LTS build, which was causing this error for me. After changing the MYSQL_PASSWORD line in the config.php file to what I set, I was able to log into my install. 🙂

decided to move to Ubuntu, I’ve used it in the past.

Thanks!

So I have to extract the entire FOG application on the Windows machine. That worked. Thank you. Slowly but surely I am working through the details of running FOG. My suggestion for improving the wiki is better topic organization. To me the topics have no logical structure, once I read one topic where should I go next? Only a suggestion.

Most of this in in the wiki. You’ll have to piece it together though. Install Fog on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS as it’s the most supported and easiest to use right now. Then look at the articles and forum posts explaining how to image, upload, and deploy.

If you create a tutorial covering all this, post it in the tutorials section. We’d be glad to have it.

I think we’ve moved the troubleshooting to the thread over in the Technical Help forums and abandoned this one in the Developer forums.

the only passwords encrypted with FogCrypt are those you setup for Active Directory integration. I think the rest of the passwords are random strings.

Also, there is a fog user for the WebUI and a fog user in the OS used for a couple of things including TFTP I think. Make sure you are looking/change the correct one.

I don’t think it’s a something with the fog server. This may be a problem with the PXE boot rom of the motherboard/nic. Try booting using gPXE boot disk/flash drive and see if you get the same error.

You have to have a machine (virtual or otherwise) already loaded up with Ubuntu, take that image, then deploy that image to another machine (virtual or otherwise). You can’t easily use Fog to push the Ubuntu installer. Also, if you are going to image Linux, you can only have primary partitions of type ext2 or ext3. Fog does not currently support ext4 filesystem, which is the default for Ubuntu. When you install Ubuntu, specify the advanced options during partition and formatting to use only ext2 or ext3 for your non Swap partitions.

In vmware, I think you have to tweak the network adapter settings to make it so the two virtual machines can talk to each other. In VirtualBox, you have to make them both part of the same named network. I do not know the specifics for vmWare.

Yep 3.3.3 is the only one i can download [url]http://www.filedropper.com/bzimage34[/url] doesnt work at all now so googling alas didnt help =/

Anyone got it to hand they can send to me? emails [EMAIL]rakarnsunju@hotmail.com[/EMAIL]

Cheers

Ask your administrator about turning on portfast for all the ports so there no delay between them being connected and being active. See if that helps.

I’m not sure why your dhcp daemon is not autostarting. Did you try adding it to the default runlevel or making sure the startup script is getting call? dmesg or /var/log/syslog might have some clues.

If my fog server is inside virtualbox along with the test clients, it works fine for me. I have not yet tried to register a virtualbox guest from a fog server that is outside the host. I don’t know how that works.

[quote=“Charles Warner, post: 4658, member: 1520”]Well, for whatever reason, I can’t seem to see the example attachment above, but I’m getting the same problem. If the NIC or chipset is not supported, how do we continue?

Charles,
You will need to try different kernels to find out which ones will work for your specific systems. You can check the list here to see if someone has posted a solution for your specific machine. [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/WorkingDevices[/url]
Or you can log into your FOG web GUI and click on the blue circle with the question mark in it (Other Information) and select Kernel Updates from the menu on the left hand side of the screen. This should open a page with a whole bunch of kernels and a download button for each of them. You didn’t list which version of FOG you are using so I am not sure what version kernel it is using, so I would suggest backing up the bzImage file located in the tftpboot/fog/kernel directory before trying new kernels.

The fog boot menu only uses the default bzImage kernel, therefore any new kernel must retain the name bzImage to be used during the registration process

Ok…
I found this in another thread by chad-bisd

“go to your Fog server web page, login, go to storage management icon, click All Storage Nodes on the left menu. Select the storage node you want to edit, which is probably DefaultMember, adjust the MaxClients value there to however low you want it.”

Here’s the thread…
