Unable to multicast; FOGMulticastManager fails to start
-
Server: Ubuntu 14.04
- FOG Version: 6017
Description: I did a fresh install of ubuntu and downloaded the latest RC today to see if it was something I had messed up while trying to fix the problem last week. I have tried truncating the multicast tables in mysql. I tried stopping and restarting the FOGMulticastManager and now I just get a fail message.

It’s not necessary to type in all caps. We also need the exact errors to help. You can copy/paste them or screenshot or take a photo. The Multicast log would also be helpful, found in fog configuration -> log viewer -> multicast.
-
@Wayne-Workman Not entirely sure how the all caps happened. I didn’t type it that way. I do not have multicast listed in the log viewer. I only see apache logs in the drop down.
-
@ryanxplosion I suppose it could be the log’s permissions are messed up…
What is the output of:
ls -lahRt /opt/fog/log -
-
@ryanxplosion That’s it?
-
@Wayne-Workman Yes. That’s all that showed up.
-
@ryanxplosion Try this:
touch /opt/fog/log/multicast.log touch /opt/fog/log/fogscheduler.log touch /opt/fog/log/pinghost.log touch /opt/fog/log/fogsnapinrep.log touch /opt/fog/log/groupmanager.log touch /opt/fog/log/fogreplicator.log touch /opt/fog/log/servicemaster.log chown -R root:root /opt/fog/log chmod -R 744 /opt/fog/log -
@Wayne-Workman won’t work if the services aren’t seeing the db.
-
What is the output of
ls -la / -
-
@ryanxplosion Both Tom and I are thinking you have a DB issue. From CLI, try to connect to the db with these two commands. Does one or both fail?
mysql -D fog -h localhostmysql -D fog -h 127.0.0.1 -
@Wayne-Workman said in Unable to multicast; FOGMulticastManager fails to start:
mysql -D fog -h 127.0.0.1
Is this what it is supposed to do? -
@ryanxplosion Yes, and the other?
-
@Wayne-Workman Same thing.
-
I’m just going to guess here but php-fpm is unavailable?
-
@Tom-Elliott said in Unable to multicast; FOGMulticastManager fails to start:
php-fpm
It appears to be running. Is this what you wanted me to check?
-
I just reinstalled Ubuntu and FOG again. The only thing I have done is import my hosts, groups, and images. FOGMulticastManager is still not running.
-
@ryanxplosion Is it a big deal since you just reinstalled to try Debian?
I’ve had far fewer issues with it.
-
@THEMCV The server I’m having issues with is my functioning server. I originally reinstalled Ubuntu on it because I had messed with so many things trying to get it to work that I felt more comfortable with a fresh install. I currently have no way of multicasting which isn’t a big deal right now since all of our labs have been recently updated, but it is still a feature we use often. I am also having issues with uploading new images now. Fails trying to update the database.
