What revision you on? And so you actually have a snap in to deploy?

[Troye Johnson]

I am on the latest one just updated about 1 hour ago. and yes I deployed a snapin

[Tom Elliott]

Can you tell me how you setup your snapin? What file and args? This way I have something more concrete to test with.

It is just a normal bat file to activate windows silently

this script is what is in the bat file.

[Tom Elliott]

I’ve added that, adding the client to my test host. BTW how do you like being able to chose from a file within the directory?

[Troye Johnson]

This post is deleted!

[Troye Johnson]

what do you mean in the snapin part choosing instead of browsing your local computer I like the option.

[Tom Elliott]

Well, you can still chose your local computer, but it also gives the choice to use already created files.

[Troye Johnson]

I have to test it again because i think I had issues editing it the other day and had to delete and re-add it but let me make sure that is the case but let me make sure it was not user error lol, but I like the setup.

[Tom Elliott]

So I just tested it, and while the task failed, I’m guess because of the XXXX’s in the key sent info (which is fine) I got:
FOG::SnapinClient Attempting to connect to fog server…
FOG::SnapinClient Module is active…
FOG::SnapinClient A snapin task was found but, not all the meta data was sent. Meta data length: 10 Required: 7.

[Tom Elliott]

I Found a few errors and I’m sorry I missed them. It was never making it to snapins.file.php so the progress wouldn’t work. Remember the task doesn’t clear until all the snapinTasks are completed. I’m testing and man 5 minutes sucks!

[Troye Johnson]

Ok thought it was just me but just in case I am imaging another machine to test on I am using hyper-V by the way on a 2012 r2 server machine. Also can we change the 5 min option it does seem forever at times

[Troye Johnson]

how would I force delete a client from the database?

[Troye Johnson]

Went to add a new workstation to try to image and test and started to get this errors

FOG DEBUG: Host: Database Load Failed: ID: 0, Error: Row not found

[Tom Elliott]

Changing the checkin time is done per client in the file config.ini found in “C:\Program Files (x86)\FOG\etc”

I’ve got mine, now, set to 20 seconds just for testing, still trying to work out kink in it.

I don’t know why You’re seeing the issue with that, did it create the host and did you set an Image with the host?

it created the host but when I click on it it shows no data like it is corrupted. I am not sure why it happened I just did a full host inventory from PXE menu.

[Tom Elliott]

That sounds like, to me at any rate, that the isValid() function is actually checking if the MAC is valid AND if it’s associated with a host. I don’t know yet, still working on snapins.

[Troye Johnson]

ok i will wait for you let me know when I can play again lol

[Tom Elliott]

So I think I fixed the issue, however I think the FOG Client is bugged.

Originally the files would be sent with #!ok\n and then the options information.

I found if I I send the commands as originally in 0.32, they say the meta issue. If I remove the \n on the ok line, it starts to work, but errors out saying it can’t find valid task id, which as far as I can tell is because it’s sending the JOBTASKID= variable as: #!okJOBTASKID=

Trying 0.32 service.
