@lucasgfaj have you turned off secure boot?

@Tom-Elliott
I did not update yet to 1824, but i did SELECT * FROM HISTORY;

MariaDB [fog]> SELECT * FROM history; +-----+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+---------------------+-------------+ | hID | hText | hUser | hTime | hIP | +-----+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+---------------------+-------------+ | 1 | [2026-04-01 08:33:55] MulticastSession ID: 1 NAME: test has been successfully updated. | fog | 2026-04-01 08:33:55 | 10.10.3.116 | +-----+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+---------------------+-------------+ 1 row in set (0.000 sec)

the new session i create are not shown, and dont work until i run the maintenance queries

then it shows in history table:

MariaDB [fog]> SELECT * FROM history; +-----+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+---------------------+-------------+ | hID | hText | hUser | hTime | hIP | +-----+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+---------------------+-------------+ | 1 | [2026-04-01 08:33:55] MulticastSession ID: 1 NAME: test has been successfully updated. | fog | 2026-04-01 08:33:55 | 10.10.3.116 | | 2 | [2026-04-01 09:10:37] MulticastSession ID: 1 NAME: test has been successfully updated. | fog | 2026-04-01 09:10:37 | 10.10.3.116 | +-----+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+---------------------+-------------+ 2 rows in set (0.000 sec)

@devle I’ve made a couple of edits, though I still cannot replicate the problem you’re seeing.

You shouldn’t see the errors any more (just saying), though I don’t know if these things will fix whatever problem you’re seeing.

@Tom-Elliott All good the last update fixed the issue!

@BLT I don’t necessarily have a timeline for the final release but I did just release an experimental kernel with a newer nic driver. It may work for you if you want to give it a try.

@Infojoe And a real question : How can I mark this as “solved” ?

My workarounds for update on Debian Trixie are:

A)
git checkout master ; git pull
userdel fogproject
cd bin ; ./installfog.sh

or
B)
apt install lastlog2
git checkout master ; git pull
ln -s /usr/bin/lastlog2 /usr/bin/lastlog
cd bin ; ./installfog.sh

@george1421 I probably found the reason of disSYNC of fog password and FOG settings. My old fog generated password included an & char (password looked like q&Y**********) but after some updates I found q&#38#38#38…********** in FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD and Storage Management Password.

To solve thi issue , I used https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/11203/resyncing-fog-s-service-account-password bit first I changed password in /opt/fog/.fogsettings.

Then update

update FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD update Storage Management Password, delete fogproject user (debian 13 installer bug lastlog vs. lastlog2) rerun installfog.sh

Now kernel update (tftp access) is working again.

As a workaround, we’re doing deploy in these Appliances by Schedule Deploy Tasks, as it bypass the authentication screen. But i would be interesting if we could do deploys without this need.

I think this is an issue envolving this kind of nic hardware (Intel I226-V). I opened an issue (18125) where I have some appliances for pfsense, they have got four NICs with this kind of hardware, and we are not getting successfull to deploy an image because it’s not processing authentication, even typíng correct user and password.

So I tested current release, and it seems you were able to fix it. It registers new hosts correctly now. However, you still have errors in sed used to enable USB_HCD_USBIO in iPXE compilation to fix non-working keyboard mentioned here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/17870/fog-ipxe-menu-no-input/

You have TAB in your sed, but it doesn’t work correctly. So lines number 80-82:

sed -i 's+//#define USB_HCD_USBIO+#define USB_HCD_USBIO+g' config/usb.h sed -i 's+//#undef USB_KEYBOARD+#define USB_KEYBOARD+g' config/usb.h sed -i 's+//#undef USB_EFI+#undef USB_EFI+g' config/usb.h

should be:

sed -i 's+//#define USB_HCD_USBIO+#define USB_HCD_USBIO+g' config/usb.h sed -i 's+#undef USB_KEYBOARD+#define USB_KEYBOARD+g' config/usb.h sed -i 's+#define USB_EFI+#undef USB_EFI+g' config/usb.h

TAB after define and undef makes difference and current iPXE release have different syntax. They have:

#define USB_EFI //#define USB_HCD_USBIO #undef USB_KEYBOARD

So we need to uncomment define USB_HCD_USBIO, switch undef USB_KEYBOARD to define and switch define USB_EFI to undef.

@pcnr I noticed this issue so many years a go. It may be issues refering undionly.kpxe file. You can find some solutions from this forum about this. In my case I did following:

Make a backup of /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe to undionly.kxpe.bak; Copied /tftpboot/undionly.kkpxe to undionly.kpxe.

So at next time, this stuck problem was solved.

I have solved my issue by changing the Host EFI Exit type:

REFIND_EFI for Windows images
SANBOOT for Ubuntu/Debian images

Hello,
In my attempt to switch to HTTPS for the Fog server, I encountered the same issue of the keyboard being disabled in the iPXE menu. After several unsuccessful tests, I consulted Copilot. After reviewing all the scripts and .h files, it indicated that the issue stemmed from the size of the iPXE.efi file I was using. It was too large due to all the necessary modules for HTTPS, causing iPXE to deactivate the USB keyboard functionality during loading. Consequently, I opted for snponly.efi instead, and now the keyboard works perfectly.

I modified the script buildipxe.sh :

sed -i ‘s+#define USB_HCD_USBIO+//#define USB_HCD_USBIO+g’ config/usb.h
sed -i ‘s+#define USB_KEYBOARD+//#define USB_KEYBOARD+g’ config/usb.h
sed -i ‘s+//#define USB_EFI+#define USB_EFI+g’ config/usb.h

May I propose a change in the console.h : Could you set the keyboard map to “dynamic” instead of “us” ? That way we can easily set our language in default.ipxe

//#define KEYBOARD_MAP us // Default US keyboard map
#define KEYBOARD_MAP dynamic // Runtime selectable keyboard map

@Greg-Plamondon I’m going to try delving into this but I’ve been very busy with other things and just haven’t gotten around.

I do appreciate the patience and assistance.

The changes you were doing that fixed the problem, please implement them again and you should be back to functional

Once that is done, do you mind doing a diff between that file and the relevant file in the git repository side:

Files I think you changed were under: <path>/<to>/<installer>/packages/service/<servicename>/<servicefile>

I’m not seeing any issues on my test systems.

not really sure why it isn’t working either.

I believe you were editing the files in /opt/fog/service/<servicename>/<servicefile>

So you would do:

diff -u <path>/<to>/<installer>/packages/service/<servicename>/<servicefile> /opt/fog/service/<servicename>/<servicefile>

@Tom-Elliott apologies for the delay but here is what I see in the error log when this occurs:

For context the 'Client IP Detected as <IP ADDRESS> is a small modification to the Subnet Groups plugin which I log the IP of the client checking in, this is working as intended.

The ‘PHP Fatal error’ is what I only see when we have the chain loading error.

I can confirm this is working on: 1.5.10.1734 as I have rolled back any sites to this version and have seen no issues.
