Call Trace??
-
if your predecessor said that “updating anything could mess up the server” it makes me wonder if he had customized any of the code. if you have a non-standard setup, then updating could be bad.

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 34258, member: 7271”]It won’t hurt to update, but update first then reinstall fog.
That all said, try my 32 bit kernel using these commands:
[code]sudo wget -O /tftpboot/fog/kernel/bzImage https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/web/service/ipxe/bzImage32[/code] Hopefully you’ll behold all the juicy goodness built within this kernel.[/quote]Tom, Do I just type this in to the command prompt or do I need to download something? Sorry, I am very new to this.

Should I update to Ubuntu 12.04, then install FOG 1.2.0, then install the kernel? Or should I just update to the latest Ubuntu I can?

I updated to 12.04 and now i’m getting “unable to connect to database”. Should I try and install 1.2.0 or stick to the .32? I am also unfamiliar with the command you sent. Do I run that in terminal or…? Let me know and thanks for your help.

You can run that in the command in terminal or however you decide to run it you can choose to upgrade to 1.to.0 if you want to but it’s not an absolute must if you are sure everything you have now works you just need a new kernel to get rid of the call trace

What about not being able to connect to the server after updating?
-
I don’t understand what you mean

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 34328, member: 7271”]I don’t understand what you mean[/quote]
When I try and log into the GUI, I get “unable to connect to database”
-
When did you start having this problem
-
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 34330, member: 7271”]When did you start having this problem[/quote]
Right after I updated to Ubuntu 12.04.
-
Did you try restarting the MySQL server service
-
ok, tom’s on his way home and can’t answer at the moment. i’ll try to help you out here
the “unable to connect to database” is typically either because the database is not running, or more commonly because the password is incorrect for the database.
after you updated from 11.4 to 12.04, did you reboot? -

It’s not being dumb it’s just you don’t know that’s why we ask the questions we us so we can try and get the answers you need
-
it’s ok. just go ahead and update to 1.2 now, the fog installer will either fix the mysql problem, or it should be easy to fix afterward anyway.

Is there an easy way to update? I tried looking on the WIKI and found ways to install FOG but not update.
-
Simply download installer. if you’ve got a good prior installation it will just update what you’ve currently got
