@davistran86 this worked excellently.

i adopted mine to http flawless

you da man!

@Sebastian-Roth I don’t think it’s necessary unless you just want to do it for kicks. I abandoned it and went with CentOS 7 and was able to get up and running

@Wayne-Workman Thanks for the info. I did modify the .fogsettings file at first, but I was receiving errors for “invalid response” whenever I attempted to install. I just copied the .fogsettings from a working installation.

@Sebastian-Roth said in Debian Buster upgrade:

@George Upgrading from 8 to 10 is quite a step. Probably something we have not tested. Please take a look at the settings file in /opt/fog/.fogsettings - find the line starting with packages=… and remove that from the file (good idea to make a backup copy of the file before you do this). Then re-run the installer.

Thank you that solved the issue. I had to remove also from apache the php5.conf and php5.load and everything now is up and running.

@Ray-Zuchowski Give this a try:

sudo -i mv /var/lib/mysql /var/lib/mysql-mariadb apt-get remove mariadb-client mariadb-server cp -a /var/lib/mysql-5.7 /var/lib/mysql apt-get install mysql-client mysql-server systemctl start mysql

@astrugatch

It was an upgrade from 16.04, both universe and multiverse are enabled in sources. Good to know
Thanks

@Sebastian-Roth said in Fog Client Hostname Changer (Ubuntu):

[…]Take a look at the host’s AD settings. There is a checkbox to force even when users are logged in.

Thanks, it worked!

@george1421
It seems yes

I just upgraded debian an it’s now php 7.3 but the installer of fog 1.5.7 is looking for php 7.0.
Do i have to install the dev-branch ?
Actually nothing works anymore

@ckasdf said in Errors in Apache log and www-error.log:

Perhaps those are less errors, and more just warnings?

Abdolutely but it’s still imporant to get rid of those to not cause any confusion when we tell people to consult the logs when looking for an error.

Is LDAP login possible with the current build?

While I have not tested it myself in our test environment lately I am fairly sure it does work. I remember others posting questions on this in the forums and did succeed.

If so, I’ll open a new post requesting help with that.

Probably not too bad of an idea. Doesn’t cost much extra and it’s good to keep things sorted a bit so people find answers more easily themselves.

Just a quick hint: Are you able to connect to your LDAP using the same credentials in a tool like ldapbrowser?

@weidongyan CentOS installs on LVM by default. Unfortunately FOG does not support cloning LVM as of now.

Probably something we can add if you are very keen and help us working on this.

The easier way is to re-install your master without LVM…

@chunter2 You are free to ask pretty much anything here but don’t expect a full answer. 😉

Though you are using FOG this has not much to do with it and I won’t find the time to step you through this. Maybe other user will.

What I was actually trying to say is that there are forums with users way more experienced on this particular topic than we are. So even if people wanna help I am sure there are other places you get more experienced eyes on your question to help you.

To say it in a MS Windows terms (which also doesn’t support this). Lets say you have server A and you share a directory. On server B you connect Server A’s share to the W: drive. On server B you are try to share the W: drive. The share fails because you are trying to reshare a mounted share. Again this is a file level share. You may be able to do this with a block level share (as an iSCSI volume), but I haven’t tried.

@bogle

Solved it…

yum reinstall ca-certificates curl -sS https://downloads.mariadb.com/MariaDB/mariadb_repo_setup | bash

@quinniedid Sad to hear that you had a lot of work and trouble with this but sometimes it’s just good to redo the whole lot to get rid of old issues. Hope you have moved forward from Ubuntu 16.04 as well! 🙂

@george1421 thank you for the help.

@Sebastian-Roth It works!!! Thank you.

@Sebastian-Roth Hi Sebastian, I reboot the system and now when I enter the command, it prompted ‘Enter password’, I just click enter and now the error came
'ERRO 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ‘root’@‘localhost’ (using password: NO). Because last time I entered some command I found in the internet, I did not want that to influence our process so I reboot. Last time, I restarted MySQL and entered ’ sudo mysqld_safe -skip-grant-tables’

@mitnotromney said in PXE Boot "Initial menu has no LABEL entries!":

I set it up to have Fog handle DHCP.

In that case it should not habd hand out pxelinux.0 - possibly you have another device handing out IPs and PXE infos to the VM.?! The IP address we see in the picture, is this the FOG server address or a different one?!
