  @Doctrg You should be able to go straight from 1.3.5 to 1.5.4 I think. Make a full DB dump on the old server, install mysql on the new one by hand (yum install mysql mysql-server), import DB dump and then start the FOG 1.5.4 installer. When it asks you to open the web interface go ahead and it should upgrade your database structure - usually does without an issue.

  Not saying there can’t be anything going wrong but mostly this is going fine. As you still have the old server (or at least a full backup of machine and DB), you can always give it a try. Shouldn’t hurt.

  Like @Tom-Elliott said, the initial postdownload script always runs. However, you can use CASE or IF statements to either call a function or open another script. Here is my current postdownload script that I got from one of @george1421 and his wonderful driver injection scripts found here

  #!/bin/bash . /usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh [[ -z $postdownpath ]] && postdownpath="/images/postdownloadscripts/" if [ $img == "Win7BaseVM" ] || [ $img == "Win10BaseVM" ] ; then case $osid in 5|6|7|9) clear [[ ! -d /ntfs ]] && mkdir -p /ntfs getHardDisk if [[ -z $hd ]]; then handleError "Could not find hdd to use" fi getPartitions $hd for part in $parts; do umount /ntfs >/dev/null 2>&1 fsTypeSetting "$part" case $fstype in ntfs) dots "Testing partition $part" ntfs-3g -o force,rw $part /ntfs ntfsstatus="$?" if [[ ! $ntfsstatus -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Skipped" continue fi if [[ ! -d /ntfs/windows && ! -d /ntfs/Windows && ! -d /ntfs/WINDOWS ]]; then echo "Not found" umount /ntf >/dev/null 2>&1 continue fi echo "Success" break ;; *) echo " * Partition $part not NTFS filesystem" ;; esac done if [[ ! $ntfsstatus -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to mount $part ($0)\n Args: $*" fi echo "Done" debugPause . ${postdownpath}fog.deletelog . ${postdownpath}fog.drivers #. ${postdownpath}fog.ad umount /ntfs ;; *) echo "Non-Windows Deployment" debugPause return ;; esac fi

  You can see that I have an if statement at the beginning to only run his driver injection script if the image name is one of my golden image VM’s.

  @wayne-workman Says the man with an aintient electonictube as picture…(-: I am too old to pick that stuff up now, been trying that on and off for the last 10 years, as i told you, it doesn’t stick to me…

  And I am happy for you people who can master Linux, I envy you that it comes to you easier than to me… I really do not know how to get started to solve my problem…

  So, it is google all the way for me…

  Thanks for sticking around and actually add something usefull to the community, I on the other hand am to stupid to help!

  Solved. Because Fog’s apache settings are configured in a vhost, the logs are going here on Debian 9:

  @andyb2000 said in Plugin hook deploy problem:

  function groupDeployPost($arguments)

  I guess you need to give us more context. Hooks are usually

  getClass is defined in class FOGBase (ref) which is inherited by EventManager, which is inherited by Event, which is inherited by Hook. So if you do class myOwnDeployPostHook extends Hook you should be able to use self::getClass(...

  @DarkStorm007 what specifically do you want to change about the form? Is it that its showing in english and not the system language? We do have Spanish-Spain (es-Es) translations, but not for Mexico (es-mx). If you’d like to add a translation, see this thread: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/9068/help-wanted-client-internationalization and I can include it in the next build/release.

  Thats excellent, thank you Sebastian for taking the time to reply, I’ll get onto that code now, that’s what I’m after.

  And yes, the find/awk trick was also what I was looking for, who needs docs, like you say, it’s in the code

  Thx. I figured out where was the issue. Maybe this info will help somebody.
  I use curl under Windows, but command line doesn’t support single quotes '.
  I used " and had to escape inner ones
