@markbam Seems like we don’t extract empty directories at the moment as it’s not the default behaviour of the ZIP library we use: https://github.com/FOGProject/fog-client/blob/master/Modules/SnapinClient/SnapinClient.cs#L155
I guess we could add fastzip.CreateEmptyDirectories = true; (ref)
Will work on adding this and provide an updated Modules.dll for you in the next days.
@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…
@badhonsoam Do I get this correct? You have installed ubuntu 16.04 server within that VM you want to capture? So I am wondering what is on that second disk?
Please boot the VM to it’s OS and run the command parted -l. Take a picture of the output and post here. If parted is not installed you can also run fdisk -l…
@brakcounty The latest dev-branch has some fixes but it’s not way ahead of 1.5.7 as of now. Still, the Ubuntu upgrade issue described is fixed already and a few other things.
See changes compared to the master branch (1.5.7 really) here: https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/compare/dev-branch
It would be great to have more people around actually running dev-branch to find issues earlier. So if you have a little bit of spare time to test things and like to use bleeding edge you are more than welcome.
I will try to be as responsive as possible in case you need help.
@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.
@brakcounty said in Updating FOG and retaining settings:
Ok so if i just say “No” to the first part of the installation where it asks if i want to reinstall apache and php, everything else should go through without issue?
Yes it should!
@dolf FOG is image deployment software, not backup software. resizable is the default because that’s the most useful and common type of image capture to be used for FOG’s intended purpose. While, yes, FOG can be used to backup systems, it is not it’s intended purpose and we have encouraged people for years to not use it as such.
@Veerakumar Thanks for the update. I was wondering why you wanted to use that other field in the “FOG Boot settings”…
