      I installed a fresh instance of Ubuntu server 12.04 on a VM, then downloaded and installed Fog 1.1.1.

      We already have a dhcp server on the network, so I chose not to use Fog as the dhcp server. I added the dhcp options 66 and 67 as follows on our Windows dhcp server:
      66 10.1.0.21
      67 undionly.kpxe

      When attempting to PXE boot a server, it gets an IP address… however, it doesn’t seem to do anything after that. It doesn’t even show that it’s timing out or anything.

      When I try connecting with a Windows TFTP client using the command “tftp 10.1.0.21 get undionly.kpxe” it times out.

      I checked to make sure ufw is disabled on the Fog server, and there is no iptables.

      [CODE]root@PCI-FOG:~# netstat -a | grep ftp
      tcp 0 0 *:ftp : LISTEN
      udp 0 0 *:tftp :
      [/CODE]
      So is TFTP not running correctly?

      What could the problem be?

        what happens if you run:
        [code]sudo service tftpd-hpa restart[/code]

          I saw that restarting TFTP was a common fix for this type of issue, however, it didn’t fix it in my case.

          I even added a 30 second delay on tftp-hpa service startup, but this did not resolve it.

            Did you add 30 second delay to tftp-hpa, or tftpd-hpa?

              Sorry, meant to type tftpd-hpa. I added “sleep 30” to the beginning of /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

                Can you tftp the file on the fog server itself? (I mean run the tftp get above on the fog server). If so I would suspect the client or an intervening firewall: from memory TFTP might uses 69 as a control port but the actual transfer takes place on other port(s).

                EDIT Also, if you use tcpwrappers, take a look in your hosts.allow and hosts.deny

                  ianabc: Yes, downloading the file works from the fog server itself with the command “tftp 10.1.0.21 -c get undionly.kpxe”

                  I can SSH to this server from my workstation, and the hosts.allow/hosts.deny files don’t have anything in them but comments.

                    Given that, my best guess would be a firewall somewhere between the server and your client. As I mentioned above, TFTP does weird things with it’s port choices, disabling the firewall(s) for a few seconds could save you a lot of time in debugging.

                    If you have another machine (e.g. another linux server on the same switch as your fog server), you could try tftp from there and rule out networking/firewall issues on the fog server.

                      Okay I noticed something strange… TFTP’ing into the server from the local shell downloads the file, but it is 0 kb in size:
                      [CODE]root@PCI-FOG:~# tftp 10.1.0.21 -c get undionly.kpxe
                      root@PCI-FOG:~# ls -al undionly.kpxe
                      -rw-r–r-- 1 root root 0 Jun 19 11:51 undionly.kpxe
                      [/CODE]

                      I checked the original file and it also appears to be 0 kb:
                      [CODE]root@PCI-FOG:/tftpboot# ls -al

                      [/CODE]

                      So I deleted undionly.kpxe and renamed undionly.kkpxe to undionly.kpxe now.

                      I tried PXE booting another server and it comes up with an error when trying to boot:
                      [CODE]

                      PXE-M0F: Exiting Broadcom PXE ROM.[/CODE]

                      Now what? I’m wondering if I’m using the correct boot file, or if it got messed up somehow during installation o_O

                        Yeah, it sounds like you’re on the right track. my undonly.kpxe looks slightly different
                        [CODE]
                        $ cd /tftpboot
                        $ ls -l undionly.kpxe
                        -rw-r–r–. 1 fog root 102825 Jun 17 14:46 undionly.kpxe
                        $ md5sum undionly.kpxe

                        2967e86058a2ed5fbc159f722a62e211 undionly.kpxe
                        [/CODE]

                        If you untar a copy of the fog installer somewhere then you can copy out the file, it should be under packages/tftp/undionly.kpxe. Copy that into place and see if you are back in business.

                          So now it looks like I have the same size pxe boot file as you, so I tried PXE booting the server again and…

                          I have no idea how to resolve this. Any ideas?

                            I don’t know iPXE (or PXE) well so I’m not sure what the sequence is, but just comparing the file sizes in the directories, my default.ipxe looks different from yours. I’ll md5sum everything in that directory to let you compare

                            The missing (and corrupt??) files are weird. A reinstall might fix it, but it’s probably better if we can figure out what has gone wrong this time.

                              The default.ipxe you’re seeing looks wrong to me, unless you cut out the last line because of IP?
                              The last line should be set to something like:
                              chain 192.168.1.1/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params

                                Yes, sorry! that line is indeed in my default.ipxe - lazy copy pasting!

                                Actually BBBBLaine, now that I think about it, your default.ipxe IS going to be different from mine, it’ll have your fog server’s IP address in it. Can you verify that the contents of your ipxe file that is chain loaded look sane? (point a browser at [url]http://MY[/url] IP HERE/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params). Here’s mine

                                  In this [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/dell-optiplex-320.10872/’]other thread[/URL] where the same issue seems to be happening, somebody suggested trying different boot files.

                                  Tried undionly.kpxe.INTEL:
                                  [CODE]http://10.1.0.21/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php… ok

                                  transmit timed out
                                  38%transmit timed out
                                  transmit timed out
                                  transmit timed out
                                  51%[/CODE]

                                  Tried undionly.pxe:
                                  This boot file only reboots the server immediately after it loads. I don’t see anything useful come up on the screen.

                                  Tried vesamenu.c32:
                                  PXE doesn’t do anything after getting an IP from DHCP… just sits there.

                                  Tried ipxe.kkpxe:
                                  Just like with undionly.pxe… server reboots

                                  Tried ipxe.kpxe:
                                  Server reboots

                                  Tried ipxe.pxe:
                                  Server reboots

                                  Tried ipxe.krn:
                                  [CODE]This image cannot be loaded from a floppy disk.[/CODE] <-- What?? o.O

                                  Tried pxelinux.0.old (it’s worth a shot, I guess):
                                  [CODE]Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/

                                  Unable to locate configuration file

                                  Boot failed: press a key to retry, or wait for reset…
                                  [/CODE]

                                  At this point, I’m stuck.

                                  Does anybody have a WORKING installation of Fog 1.1.1? If so, what distro of linux is it running on? Maybe I’m just running into a bug?

                                    I’m running it on RHEL 6.5 and also Centos 5. Do you have any other clients you can try to iPXE boot? the VESA thing might be a hardware issue.

                                        The only files you should be trying are:
                                        ipxe.pxe
                                        ipxe.kpxe
                                        ipxe.kkpxe
                                        undionly.pxe
                                        undionly.kpxe
                                        undionly.kkpxe

                                        I’d first start by trying the (same named) files in:
                                        [url]https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/[/url]

                                        Just replace the file name with undionly.kpxe (so you don’t have to change dhcp stuff).
                                        Example:
                                        [code]wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.pxe
                                        wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.kpxe
                                        wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.kkpxe
                                        wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/ipxe.pxe
                                        wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/ipxe.kpxe
                                        wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.kkpxe[/code]

                                          Okay I’m trying each of those one by one…
                                          With undionly.pxe I get:
                                          Reboot after “Initialising devices”

                                          With undionly.kpxe I get:
                                          [CODE]Could not start download: Operation not supported (http://ipxe.org/3c092003)[/CODE]
                                          With undionly.kkpxe I get:
                                          [CODE]Could not configure console: Input/output error (http://ipxe.org/1d8c2139)
                                          Could not boot: Input/output error (http://ipxe.org/1d8c2139)
                                          Could not boot: Input/output error (http://ipxe.org/1d8c2139)[/CODE]
                                          With ipxe.pxe I get:
                                          [CODE]transmit timed out…
                                          transmit timed out…
                                          transmit timed out…[/CODE]
                                          With ipxe.kpxe I get:
                                          [CODE]Configuring (net0 00:1e:c9:d7:ee:de)…
                                          [/CODE] then the server reboots with no error message

                                          EDIT maybe I will try this on a different machine to see if maybe there’s just some problem with this server… It is a Dell PowerEdge 2900 - refurbished (I mean the server I’m using to try PXE boot at least. The Fog server is a Virtual Machine on ESXi 5.5)

                                            That sounds like a good idea, it would be informative to see some different PXE clients. Good luck!
