Unable to add new snapin

[Tom Elliott]

I’m not seeing a problem with creating new snapins, or updating existing snapins.

[THEMCV]

@Tom-Elliott Same. I’ve been working on snapins today all day.

[Tom Elliott]

You might check that ftp is running? If it is, check that user and password are set properly for the storage node that is being uploaded to.

[x23piracy]

Solution? (it’s solved!)

[Tom Elliott]

@x23piracy It’s solved because the issue doesn’t exist. I believe the problem is FTP permissions or credentials as to the reason why it’s not working. There is also the possiblity the temp folder is unable to be written to. Too many variables, but not something that fog is directly causing.

[Wayne Workman]

Even a full partition could cause it.

[theWizard]

@Wayne-Workman
Well i have no full partition,
FTP is running correctly,
FTP Credentials have been checked but also reset to what they should be to make sure,
FTP restarted

Still no go. Any advise on what to try.

[Wayne Workman]

@theWizard Is the snapin file you’re trying to upload larger than the snapin upload limit? How big is it?

[theWizard]

@Wayne-Workman 126kb so no its just a script as an exe.

[Wayne Workman]

@theWizard Are there any apache errors immediately after trying? Web Interface -> FOG Configuration -> Log Viewer -> Apache errors

[theWizard]

@Wayne-Workman I tried to check in gui but fog is not reporting any it just says no logs found for any logs.

[Wayne Workman]

@theWizard Can you give me the output of these two commands please?
ls -laht /opt/fog/log
ls -laht /

@Wayne-Workman Also tried re running the installer but no change, any ideas ?

[Wayne Workman]

@theWizard Yes, I have ideas. I need to talk with Tom first about it.

@Tom-Elliott This is a case where the logs are going to the / directory instead of /opt/fog/log due to DB connectivity issues. What do we do? I suspect this is probably related to being unable to create a new snapin somehow as well.

[Tom Elliott]

@Wayne-Workman Look at the date of the files.

[Wayne Workman]

@Tom-Elliott November 7th. Last week.

[Tom Elliott]

@Wayne-Workman Precisely.

The guess I have? PHP FPM is the issue, why, because last week we switched the ondrej stuff becuase they changed.

But again, this is not a bug in FOG. This is a change in OS and Repo structure which is already “corrected” for.

[Wayne Workman]

@theWizard Try to uninstall the old php-fpm version, and then install the newer version, and then give the server a reboot.

apt-get remove php5-fpm -y
apt-get install php5.6-fpm -y

Also, topic has been moved to FOG Problems.

[theWizard]

@Wayne-Workman Ok followed your steps and checked again, same result for both logs and snapins. If i try re running the installer it fails on installing php-fpm ( i assume the old one ? ).
