Chromium OS Woes

rstockham23 · Jun 22, 2016, 6:43 AM

I have seen a few posts on here of people saying they were able to successfully create and restore an image for Chromium OS. I have tried in the past unsuccessfully but recently gave it another shot after seeing some success messages on here. I’m using Chromium 52, Fog 1.2.0, with Image type of Linux, Multi Partition, Single Disk. When uploading, all the partitions seem to be successful and when downloading, they seem to transfer fine as well, but then after the image, the hard drive will not boot to Chromium. Doesn’t recognize it as bootable. Any tips?

Can you try the same steps, but after upgrading to a trunk version? 1.2.0 kind of sucked on dealing with any partitions. You might even be able to do this using a resizable type image as well.

@Tom-Elliott Thank you. I just attempted to upgrade to Trunk. Ran into some bumps. I was using Ubuntu 12 before and appeared PHP wasn’t going to be new enough, so I upgraded to Ubuntu 14 and then updated to Trunk. Appeared to be successful but when going to the Fog login page, I’m getting this error instead:

SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column ‘hosts.hostPending’ in ‘where clause’ SQL: [93] SELECT COUNT(hosts.hostID) AS total FROM hostsWHERE hosts.hostPending=‘1’ LIMIT 1 Params: 0

Any thoughts?

@rstockham23 Is that the EXACT message or you hand typed it?

@Tom-Elliott Exact…copy and pasted from the web browser I tried to access it with

@rstockham23 can you run a join.me session?

I’m unable to replicate.

@Tom-Elliott Send me number (if so) via chat.

@Tom-Elliott Let me ask you this real quick. If I create a brand new fog server from scratch with Trunk. Is there any way to transfer information from the old to the new? Images, registration information, etc? Or do you think I’d be better off trying to fix my current one?

@rstockham23 YOu can take a backup of hte current and do a fresh install. Once installed, re-import the old database and allow schema update (as necessary).

However, I don’t know what’s wrong and would much prefer to see it.

I imagine this can be fixed really easily.

Try this Please:

rm -rf /home/fog*.BACKUP /var/www/fog /var/www/html/fog /var/www/fog.prev /var/www/html/fog.prev

Then retry installing. If you have ISO’s please back them up (if they’re in the FOG Web root folders) before removing.

@Tom-Elliott Just tried removing all of those files and re-installing fog trunk. This time it did get to the screen in the installation where it said to access the site to update the schema and then hit Enter to continue. However again, when I went to the website to update the schema, I got this message on the browser:

SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column ‘hosts.hostPending’ in ‘where clause’ SQL: [93] SELECT COUNT(hosts.hostID) AS total FROM hostsWHERE hosts.hostPending=‘1’ LIMIT 1 Params: 0

just a heads up incase you didnt know, Chromium has been discontinued and replaced by CUB due to name issue complaints by Google. I havent looked at CUB and dont know how similar the are.
