Failed to Update Database and Host

[Fog_Newb]

@maxcarpone I had the same problem with 2390 and reverted to an older back up. That version was broke AF

@Fog_Newb : Good to know I’m not the only one having this problem. I’ll wait for a patch.

@maxcarpone 1.5.10.2402 is out. It works. I was able to capture from both my PC and laptop successfully. But it has a weird issue with null tasks.

@Fog_Newb : Well it doesn’t work for me. I still have problems with this version.

[maxcarpone]

I tried new things : I created a new user to see if I have the same problems as user “Fog”.

Well, when I perform a registration with immediate deployment : it works!

But it failed to update the database at the end of the deployment.

It looks like it has something to do with active tasking.

So, it’s still broken somewhere…

I’m suspecting you’re not entering the correct password?

This is your FOG Web login user/password.

@Tom-Elliott : Unfortunately, it is the right password. I was wondering myself when the problem appeared but the prompt says something when it’s not the good one and you have 3 tries before giving up.

And by the way, it works using “deploy image” from PXE menu.

I’m available if you want me to do some special moves to find out where is the culprit ^^

I’ve found and fixed several ways these empty tasks get created — a group deploy of two or more hosts was failing outright, and deleting an image was leaving its queued tasks pointing at nothing — but before I ship a cleanup for the rows you already have, I need to know whether the bad tasks hold a 0 or the id of something that got deleted, because that changes what the cleanup has to match on. Could you run this against your FOG database and paste the output?

SELECT  t.taskID,
        t.taskStateID,
        t.taskTypeID,   IF(tt.ttID   IS NULL, 'MISSING', tt.ttName)   AS type_row,
        t.taskHostID,   IF(h.hostID  IS NULL, 'MISSING', h.hostName)  AS host_row,
        t.taskImageID,  IF(i.imageID IS NULL, 'MISSING', i.imageName) AS image_row,

ORDER BY   t.taskID;

SELECT * FROM schemaVersion;

@Tom-Elliott : I can do that if you tell me how to do it!

Update : I figured it out.

[Tom Elliott]

@maxcarpone I don’t know if this is directed specifically at you @maxcarpone but if you want the gist:

sudo mariadb -u root fog

Then enter the select statements provided earlier.

[maxcarpone]

@Tom-Elliott : I found a way to do it :

mysql --user=fogstorage --password=MYPASSWORDHERE -D fog

Here are the results :
