Pxe not working after update

[chclark]

Hi

I recently started making a image of one of my machine types I performed a full inventory of the machine and it appears in the hosts list.

since then I updated fog to 1.2.0 from 1.1.2 and I have come to upload the image made the task in the web gui for the host and when I pxe the machine it picks up the machine ip dhcp etc but tftp fails and pxe aborts.

any ideas?

What Version of linux did you install FOG on?

Ubuntu 12.04 lts.

But got it working now saw another thread mention similar but not the same and they were advised to restart the tftpd-hpa service once I did this it loaded correctly and started the upload job.

In Ubuntu 12.04 and later the tftp starts to soon after a reboot. I have had good success with doing the following.

sudo gedit /etc/rc.local

then add the following line
/bin/sleep 30 && /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa restart
