      Hello Guys,

      I have a problem on a machine inventoried in FOG named POMIG0558v2.
      I can’t change the hostname to POMIG0558, I get this message :
      Update failed choose another name.
      Nowhere else is this name defined.

      is there anything we can do?
      Thank you in advance

          @HorizonG What’s the exact error you’re getting?

          Can you provide pictures of the issue?

          Do you have logs you can inform us with?

          Do you have information about what fog version you’re using?

It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

            Hello @Tom-Elliott

            The message is in French and it says:
            Machine update failed - Please use another name
            Error_Hostname.png

            Another problem I noticed yesterday is that when I want to do a CSV export, I get “Unauthorized”.
            The account used to log in to the WEB GUI interface is part of the “Administrator” group.

            Best Regards

              @HorizonG What is the version of FOG you’re using?

              If I had to guess it’s the 1.5.10, but I believe this may have been addressed later (though admittedly I’m not for sure that it was.)

              Another option, if you’re willing, is to install working-1.6 where I’m pretty confident this isn’t an issue. Though (to be fair) I’m not certain the translation systems are 100% updated anymore. (so many things may show up as plain US English, but hopefully that’s not a complete hinderance).
