Where do I do that? Can I do it in the FOG GUI or from a command prompt?

@Etrain

lol… that’s definitely why it wasn’t working.

Additionally, with that check box checked, you do not use FOG Crypt any longer.

You type your plain text password in, hit save, and it gets encrypted with an insanely secure security/encryption system.

Also, with that checkbox checked, the Active Directory section on the host management page only accepts plain text (if you type it in manually) and then encrypts whatever you type there. The auto-populate would just populate the already-encrypted password.

I move the machine over to another hosts in a new blade-center (Was in a crappy Dell 1U server host before) Problem ceased to exist. I also upgraded to the SVN latest and it seems to be working pretty good;

Glad you got it working! and, that info is good to know.

I am going to have to set FOG up at our central location for something like 27 buildings soon… glad to know what to use now!

At the moment, I’m sort of the lone ranger using FOG in just one building, and everyone is envious of my 4 minute image deployment time, with auto naming and auto joining to domain… and web functionality. And, the people at Acronis screwed up when my manager called them up with a list of basic questions about their network solution… and nobody he got on the phone with could give direct answers… so they missed out on something like a $50,000 sale lol. My manager wants to move forward with FOG now. 🙂

@fsu1tm I sent you a message in chat as I am sure we can help fix this issue for you. It’s relatively simple to work out.

The FOG_STORAGENODE_MYSQLUSER and FOG_STORAGENODE_MYSQLPASS are for storage nodes to link to a central fog server.

Hopefully this helps explain that. These are not what you would want to put in your main server, though I suppose it wouldn’t hurt them either.

Hi,

Not sure in 1.2, but in SVN version you can specify the default boot via FOG Configuration > iPXE Menu Customization

Regards,
Ch3i.

perfect, that’s what I was searching for.
I will give it a try.
Here the tutorial for installing the SVN for other with the same problem:
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/SVN

The long-term solution is having only one FOG server, and having storage nodes at the different sites. You could use the “location plugin” also.

ok. I´ve found it.

Just changing the config in
/etc/php5/cli/php.ini and /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

Thanks
Angel

@sagar

You must also have the local Linux user set with the same credentials.

There’s an article in the wiki called “Troubleshoot FTP” that will tell you all about it.

@Tom-Elliott Thanks, How long do you think it might be released in the stable version. 🙂

SVN is relatively stable. Many of us use it in production 😛

Well after fighting with this thing for the better part of a week, I think I’ve finally got it stabilized. I’m on revision 3526, and I ended up creating a new image from scratch. Uploading and downloading finally work correctly, and while I do have an issue with the image, that’s a Windows issue not a FOG issue. Thanks to @Wayne-Workman for all his help, hopefully now you guys can move on to more important things, like a stable release. 😄

@Tom-Elliott Thanks you, I have just installed the latest Kernel and it now works. Not quite sure what was happening but thank you for your support.

@Tom-Elliott

Yup, it’s solved.

@Wayne-Workman Thank you sir! This fixed the issue.

@brycew

FOG Trunk has now been confirmed working on Ubuntu 15.04

Upgrade to the latest trunk, and you may need to run the installer a few times for it to get through.

The problem was that the master node check box wasn’t selected. As it was a new storage node, it needed selecting.

Thank you all for your help. It’s much appreciated.

@KarlFife

What version of FOG?

This is just a guess, but, because imaging works for you with other systems, that particular motherboard might not be supported by the current kernel / inits that you have.

You could try other kernels… newer ones… older ones…

If you find one that works, let us know so we can update our hardware lists:

Just looking back and the image size on the server still displays zero.

The server size would display zero if the images are stuck in /images/dev

Did you look at the credentials section of that article?
