      I have successfully installed FOG 1.0.1 and Ubuntu 14.04 for the server, installed and imported the client into FOG web GUI, imaging upload and downloading works flawlessly, however, when I try to setup network printers I can’t get the server to push them to the client

      checking the fog.txt log file on the client it shows it connecting to the server and checking for printers however it says there is 0 printers found on server

      [INDENT=1][I]5/23/2014 8:50 AM FOG:PrinterManager Printer update was request from fog tray…[/I][/INDENT]
      [INDENT=1][I] 5/23/2014 8:50 AM FOG:PrinterManager Management level = 1[/I][/INDENT]
      [INDENT=1][I] 5/23/2014 8:50 AM FOG:PrinterManager Adding new printers to host…[/I][/INDENT]
      [INDENT=1][I] 5/23/2014 8:50 AM FOG:PrinterManager 0 found on server side.[/I][/INDENT]
      [INDENT=1][I] 5/23/2014 8:50 AM FOG:PrinterManager Failed to connect to fog server![/I][/INDENT]
      [INDENT=1][I] 5/23/2014 8:50 AM FOG:PrinterManager This is typically caused by a network error![/I][/INDENT]
      [INDENT=1][I] 5/23/2014 8:50 AM FOG:PrinterManager Sleeping for 1 minute.[/I][/INDENT]
      This is how I have the printer configured FOG web GUI, but it’s setup as a network printer with \server\printer name

      i have tried multiple variations

      \server\SecondFloorOperations - Xerox 7775
      smb://server/SecondFloorOperations%20-%20Xerox%207775
      \ipofserver\SecondFloorOperations - Xerox 7775

      maybe even a couple others, is there something I am missing? does the printer have to be locally installed in the OS?

      I changed my server name to “server” for security purposes

      Thanks!

            Having Printer Issues Also…
            I’ve installed FOG 1.1.0 with patches from svn version 1780, yet I’m still having issues with PrinterManager adding and removing printers. I have “Add and Remove” selected for all hosts under “Printers” in Host Management.

            Experiencing the following…
            [LIST]
            []Random comments in the FOG log: PrinterManager Service is disabled and I get no printers deployed at all.
            [
            ]When printers do finally decide to deploy, I can’t remove them afterwards without cleaning up the registry.
            [/LIST]
            Any help is greatly appreciated.

              Did you upgrade from 0.32 or is this a “fresh” install of 1.1.0?

              Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. 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)
