FOG 33b - installation - HP Elite 8300 SFF
-
Why would it work for 10 minutes and then not? The same yesterday.
-
From what I can tell, it appears the username and/or password are not working for mysql.
Try commenting the bind-address part of the my.cnf file entirely and restart mysql and try again.
-
how do I comment the bind-address
-
By the way, is it best to stop mysql first before doing changes and then start?
-
Oh yes # to comment
-
Have put # in front of bind-address and saved.
then
sudo start mysql
running
Tried login - not work.As I said it is easy to see that my correct password is being accepted because I do not get “invalid login”
-
Then the user you’re trying to login is flagged as quick image/mobile
-
That’s correct. I selected that option believing that it gave me an extra option on the PXE registration page.
You need to put a better explanation of what it is on the initial user creation page.
I really did not know if I should tick it or not.
What do I do now to get access again. This is the one and only user I have called fog. -
You have to unflag the user.
[code]mysql -u root -p fog[/code]From the mysql shell run the command:
[code]UPDATE users SET uType=‘0’ WHERE uName=‘fog’;[/code] -
And could I have a definitive answer on if it is necessary with 33b to modify the bind-address= in /etc/mysql/my.cnf to my fogserver ip address? (as it was necessary with 32)
-
Thanks so much Tom. It works again. And I will not tick that option again.
Can I suggest the following text in addition to that you have by that tick box:Warning - if you tick this box, this user will not be able to log into this FOG Management Console in the future.

I am trying to register 1 client, an old HP
PXE TFTP open timeout
It’s not finding the pxe boot file.
A few years ago I think I fixed this with
sudo start tftpd-hpaBut tftpd-hpa is already running.
Server 2012 R2 already has DHCP scope options:
066 = fogserver
067 = undionly.kpxeSo what’s the problem?
-
does your fog server have the file:
/tftpboot/undionly.kpxe -
yes
-
And could I have a definitive answer on if it is necessary with 33b to modify the bind-address= in /etc/mysql/my.cnf to my fogserver ip address? (as it was necessary with 32)
-
i recommend setting 66=10.0.1.40 on your DHCP server, so there isn’t any question if it’s resolving the hostname
-
Probably still necessary. I don’t have a definitive answer because this varies per system.
-
I have also tried one of the new HP clients. It does not find the pxe file either.
-
Please make sure you listen to Tom FIRST!
Sometimes after a restart you need to restart the tftp service.
[CODE]sudo restart tftpd-hpa[/CODE]
Edit:
Also, use the ip address of the fogserver for option 66. -
Thanks Junkhacker, I forgot to put in a DNS reference to fogserver.
Now PXE is working on the old HP
The registration works.
But now when the PC is rebooted, and I don’t touch anything, when it defaults past the FOG options, whilst the FOG pxe page is still visible, I see:“Booting from SAN device 0x80”
and it freezes there. Nothing I press takes me further …
I have not set an imaging task or anything like that.
I’ll try the new HP and get back to you.
