@Marcus-Allen Look inside of /var/log I had some pretty big files in there too.

Great this worked for me installing FOG on Kubuntu 14.04

Well that was dumb of me. I rebooted the server and everything is working now.

Ok, it is quite simple with grub.

For instance, with a debian jessie:

install ipxe with grub apt-get install ipxe Set the next grub boot to use the ipxe menu grub-reboot 2 Reboot ! reboot

The number to use is the number of the grub entry (counting the submenu) of the pxe entry, starting from 0.

Thank you for your help, I hope the result could help someone in the future.

FOG installs the FOG User when it’s installed.

The GUI is a database. FTP/local unix is a separate user.

If you can login to the Management page, look at Storage Management->Your Storage Node->Management username and password.

That password should be the password your local UNIX FOG user is using.

@Lyendril You can use Magical Jelly Bean keyfinder to extract your key.

Also, if the key is on a sticker on each computer, you could simply just type in this key after each imaging.

If you don’t have a Windows Installation Disk, you could just download one. Enter your key into it and see if it works. If it does not, you could activate over the phone (once) and then take an image of that.

I don’t think it matters so much that each computer is using the key it’s supposed to use - as much as - you have a legal key for each computer that is running said Microsoft product.

In OEM installation, manufacturers use only 1 windows key for all computers (tested on HP), you can saved it (key/certificate) by using ABR (activation backup & recovery - google it) and use it with Windows 7 Digital River download (Not provide anymore by Microsoft but you can find it by another way…).

If you want more details PM me.

Works okay in fog version 3642

that guide is from fog 0.27
it is no longer accurate
the places you will likely need to change the IP address are
in web interface

Fog Configuration>FOG Settings>General Settings>FOG_WOL_HOST Fog Configuration>FOG Settings>TFTP Server>FOG_TFTP_HOST Fog Configuration>FOG Settings>Web Server>FOG_WEB_HOST Storage Management>DefaultMember> IP Address

in files

/tftpboot/default.ipxe /opt/fog/.fogsettings

and, of course, your option 66 in your dhcp server settings

Do you d1.original.swapids?

d1.original.partitions, from the directory listing looks like it has data.

I’ve edited my post, the swapuuids is empty…

@cmcleod

Well… I’m not sure…

Most people don’t even get NAS to work right with FOG so… you should feel lucky lol. I guess just use the Buffalo Terastation’s web interface to keep an eye on your space usage?

@cspence I need to update the old post… the new forum kill my post lol. A script is missing.

there is a Dban example in there.

@KGreene I’m solving this post. Mostly because it was just user mis-understanding. Hopefully you understand, and if you need any help, don’t hesitate to let us know.

Thanks hadn’t seen that. but suspect its to ol

Still having issues ATM. but been busy and will check this out next week.

@Tom-Elliott
Solved my issue with the TFTP. it was because the FOG user password got changed and wasn’t updated in the web interface.

@jjacobs

Hi,

You can install MySQL command line for Windows and query your MySQL server (using the mac adress of your computer). I used it on linux computers.

Regards,
Ch3i.

EDIT : You can download Mysql in ZIP format here : http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/, binaries are in.

Ya, as a general rule of thumb, don’t use Ubuntu. Older versions like 12.04 LTS work fine, but anything “bleeding-edge” for ubuntu means it screws with 90% of the linux standards.

Oh, that’s an FTP issue. See this article: [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_FTP[/url]

Most likely it’s credentials / permissions related…

[quote=“SouperGrover, post: 46109, member: 27066”]Hey guys,

I just wanted to pass on something I had to work through with regards to uploading an image. I was getting the infamous “Can’t rename/move Permission Denied” messages on the client after it had finished imaging. Most posts tell you to ensure the FTP passwords are all set corretcy in the various PHP files, make sure permissions are set correctly on the /images folder, etc. None of this worked for me.

I have a vanilla Ubuntu 14.04 server running only FOG. When I logged in using the fog user with an SCP client over SSH, I could read/write/modify/delete everything I expected to be able to. But, when I used and FTP client with the same account, I couldn’t even modify the fog user’s home directory. What I discovered was that in my /etc/vsftpd.conf file, [CODE]write_enable=YES[/CODE] was commented out, so therefor no FTP users could modify anything. After I uncommented this and restarted the service, I was able to get my image to finally upload

Hope this can help someone else out because I didn’t se this as a solution anywhere else[/quote]

You’re problem and solution have been documented here: [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_FTP#Images_stuck_in_.2Fimages.2Fdev[/url]
