FOG FTP login failed (?)
-
-
I installed several times FOG version 1.2 under Ubuntu 14.04 (desktop) just to be sure. I followed various tutorials (same steps more or less) : appropriate permissions, fog user, move images etc.
-
Fog worked perfectly right
: importing of hosts, doing inventory, cloning of either Linux Ubuntu 12.04 or Windows 7 using the single disk multiple partitions mode, renaming of hosts etc. -
The only problem I answered with a script was to restart each new graphical session the mysql service (or I got a message to update the database again and again on the login webpage each session) and the tftpd-hta one (apparently too fast to start).
A few days ago and I setup things again today, I got the following error and still have it now : try cloning a w7 single disk resizable, 99,7% done (fog web interface / I destroy all the images so I have enough place on the harddisk)…
[When I check what’s happening with the help of a terminal, I can see a temporary cloning in /home/images/dev done by root:root]
… Then on the cloned PC, a fog FTP login error appears (with the password…) again and again.
I check : https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Unable_to_connect_to_TFTP but…
Thanks in advance,

I think you might be suffering from a problem that affects a few newer-ubuntu platforms with 1.2.0.
There’s a fix for it in here.
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_MySQL
And, for the record, there’s an article on troubleshooting FTP too.
Use the WiKi’s search feature, type in the word “Troubleshoot” and see what pops up. -

Thanks for the fix about MYSQL. I’ve just followed the advice and it looks OK (no more asking for upgrading the DTB).
-
I did have a look at the forums about FTP. For the moment, it is not solving the “Error: ftp_login”.
-
-
Do a cat /etc/passwd and see if the output looks like this:
fog:x:1001:1001::/home/fog:If it does, there is no shell associated with the user. As root, try the following:
chsh -s /bin/bash fogLet me know if that fixes it for you!

I was referring to this
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_FTP
Look at the credentials section.What @Trevelyan posted looks like great stuff though. I’ve made note of his post.

Hi to all,
Thanks for your help. I finally gave up with the 14.04 Ubuntu version, too unstable for the moment with fog.
I set up fog 1.2 with Ubuntu 12.04 and it is working perfectly (no need to restart services etc.) except one problem I cannot possibly manage with.
I’m cloning my 1st image (Windows 7 resizable). The cloning is OK (not stuck into the dev folder, can connect to the ftp with the fog user…). I can find the image done with the appropriate name into the images folder. (I move the images folder into the /home/fog/ folder).However the image size through the webinterface is 0 + root:root permissions on it despite the fact it is here in the images folder and cloned properly…
Any help again welcome… Thanks

have you tried to download the image ? If you have a size 0 it’s a FTP login problem.

I insist. The image is done, 1st into /dev then moved and available into images with the appropriate name and size. But through the webinterface, size = 0 depsite the storagenode shows me there is less space available.
