FOG time is far off

[Boyan Biandov]

Yep I did; but here is what actually worked for me. I had to restart the FOG services in order for the log to start updating with the correct time zone

[CODE]boyan@fog4:/etc/php5/cli$ sudo service FOGScheduler restart

• Restarting FOG Computer Imaging Solution: FOGScheduler [ OK ]
  boyan@fog4:/etc/php5/cli$ sudo service FOGMulticastManager restart
• Restarting FOG Computer Imaging Solution: FOGMulticastManager [ OK ]
  boyan@fog4:/etc/php5/cli$ sudo service FOGImageReplicator restart
• Restarting FOG Computer Imaging Solution: FOGImageReplicator [ OK ]
  boyan@fog4:/etc/php5/cli$
  [/CODE]

Now all is good as expected:

[CODE][02-07-15 8:51:18 am] * Starting FOG Multicast Manager Service
[02-07-15 8:51:23 am] * Checking for new tasks every 10 seconds.
[02-07-15 8:51:23 am] * Starting service loop.
[02-07-15 8:51:23 am] * No tasks found!
[02-07-15 8:51:33 am] * No tasks found!
[02-07-15 8:51:43 am] * No tasks found![/CODE]

For future reference:
If your time is off please check your timezone located in these two files(ubuntu):
[CODE]/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
/etc/php5/cli/php.ini[/CODE]

Then restart apache2 and Fog Services (or reboot entire server):
[CODE]sudo service apache2 restart
sudo service FOGMulticastManager restart
sudo service FOGTaskScheduler restart
sudo service FOGImageReplicator restart
sudo service FOGSnapinReplicator restart
[/CODE]

As a result of this “issue” coming up so often please see [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Time_off[/url] for other details.

Do I have to change the time in the storage nodes as well or do they pull from the FOG Server?

[Tom Elliott]

For the FOG Services to work properly, only the nodes that are masters should require it. Other than that everything else should be good to go.

I don’t know how much of a pain in the ass it would be to implement, but could the time-zone settings be added either to the Web interface or at least the installation script? Manually editing system files just to correct the time zone seems a little much for the average user, but that’s just my opinion.

Web interface now has this support. It will use the UTC setting if no time is set. If php.ini timezone is set, it will use this as its timezone, otherwise it will use whatever you select.
