Issue with Fog Server after running updates on Ubuntu 14.04

[ben.walker]

I had some updates for Ubuntu 14.04 and now I can’t get into my FOG server through the GUI. I am getting a page that says I need to run “Database Schema Installer / Updater”. When I run it I am getting an error. The screen shots are supplied.

Thank you in advance,
Ben

I had this happen and had to restart mysql.

I think the command is: sudo service mysql restart

Use this fix, should permanently fix for what you’re describing:

One of the things I hate about Ubuntu, lately, is exactly this.

Ever since moving to Upstart to control services, the services seem to no longer be controlled.

It will start services before the dependent services (Networking, Local system, etc…) is running.

This breaks other things as well, such as the linux side FOG Services (FOGMulticastManager,FOGScheduler, etc…)

What’s happening, from what I can see, is it starts mysql before networking is ready. It works for a small amount of time, but then when networking is ACTUALLY ready, the service fails. Upstart is supposed to handle restarting a crashed service, but it’s almost like it was completely forgotten about.
