sheduled task

[afuente26]

Hello,

my instant deploymente works well, but the delay and the cron-style deployment don´t start.

The sheduled task are created correctly, the problem is that the client doesn´t start the task. For the cronjob I use * for the blank fields and for the delay task I just select the date and hour of the calender.

Both don´t work. Does anybody knows what I could be?

Thanks
Angel

Hello Junkhacker,

I run the command sudo service FOGScheduler start (debian7 64) and the service started but the cronjob still doesn´t work…

Can you run the troubleshooting script found here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/4581/let-s-make-scripts

And see if it points anything out?

@Wayne-Workman

Hi,

No status in you FOG services ?

----------------------Firewall status below
----------------------FOGMulticastManager status below
----------------------FOGSnapinReplicator status below
----------------------FOGImageReplicator status below
----------------------FOGScheduler status below

Regards,
Ch3i.

The FOG services do not have a status flag on Debian.

iptables: unrecognized service
Usage FOGMulticastManager {start|stop|restart}
Usage FOGSnapinReplicator {start|stop|restart}
Usage FOGImageReplicator {start|stop|restart}
Usage FOGScheduler {start|stop|restart}

The only way I know is to check if they are running via: ‘ps -ef | grep [F]OG’

It saw it allready but I can´t understand it, because I´ve restarted the service manually. I can also do Multicast and so on…

Do not (if on debian/ubuntu) restart the service.

You will need to run:

service FOG{SERVICENAME} stop

Then you will have to start the individually.

Was going to suggest that earlier too (during lunch) but my laptop died

@afuente26

Yes, the cronjob-service is running ;-(

[Wayne Workman]

Ensure your FOG server’s time is correct.

Both for Apache/Web UI and the OS.

To update the time in the web UI, you’d do that somewhere inside FOG Configuration…

And make your local server time on the OS correct, also.

Let us know if that helps.

ok. we are progressing. I´ve tested the time in a php-file (date-function) and the apache time is ok.
But I´ve found, that nevertheless it is a time problem.

I´ve tried the following cronjob configuracion, asuming today is the 2 june tuesday, 20:23 hour
The scheduled task worked with exception of the hour:

You have edit your post to past your code, you can paste it in the code tags, the button “</>”

echo "some code"

[Wayne Workman]

brackets and CODE and slashes work, too.

open bracket [

then CODE
then close bracket ]

then the same at the end, but with a / in front of code.

Like this (but remove the quotes)

[“CODE”]
some code here
[“/CODE”]

[afuente26]

the diference are two hours. I have to schedule the task two hours less.

I´ve also modified the timezone in the php.ini but this do not afecto the cronjob.

For me it´s a “good” solution.
Thanks to all.
