Thanks to Wayne I had access to the RHEL 7 machine for a quick test and seems like we hit it with the latest fix. Installer went through like a charm. So RHEL is back in the race I suppose.

@Sebastian-Roth Thanks for you answer, i’ll try next time.

Sincerely.

@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.

@tom-elliott we do all the installing manually… Could you please elaborate the steps…

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.

Removed. Well, kept the surface-pro-4 matching element, but just removed the 7156 portion.

@maikbat by default the api access is disabled. Check fog configuration ->fog settings->API Settings and enable

@tom-elliott thank you so much! You are a rockstar. I look forward to 1.6!

Thank you 🙂 That worked great!

@tom-elliott How can i request to /fog/host/search/xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ?
I will have an error with this for illegal url chars can i send it with data ?

And

http://domain.com/fog/host/search/randomhostname

return a white page (403 Forbidden error to get the search route)

Solved. Because Fog’s apache settings are configured in a vhost, the logs are going here on Debian 9:
/var/log/apache2/other_vhosts_access.log

@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 🙂

@wayne-workman
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
–data “{\“hostID\”:13}”

@joseph-hales That article needs overhauled I suppose. Probably re-titled too. I’ll see what I can do.
