@Lenain
With help I have find a solution:
Put proxy settings in fog configuration page
Edit fogconfigurationpage.class.php, change ’https://fogproject.org/kernels/kernelupdate.php?version=%s’ to ’https://fogproject.org/kernels/kernelupdate.php?version=’.

If your FOG server is behind a proxy server then you may need to do two things.

1. In the fog configuration there is a proxy setting you need to complete.
2. In the linux command line you need to export the following in bashrc or where ever your profiles are stored in ubuntu.

http_proxy=http://<proxy_server_IP>:<port>
https_proxy=http://<proxy_server_IP>:<port>
no_proxy=<fog_server_ip>

In fog proxy settings I did it, i’ll try in bashrc. Thanks

@george1421
I still have a problem of communication:

[george1421]

@Lenain When you are in the gui, there are proxy settings under the fog configurations

FOG Configuration->FOG Settings->Proxy Settings->FOG_PROXY_IP

[Lenain]

@george1421
Thanks but as I said I’v already do it in FOG_PROXY_IP as in bashrc:

[george1421]

@Lenain Well that’s a bit strange.

When you go to log into FOG does it display this? Does it populate the estimated FOG sites?

[Lenain]

@george1421
Yes it work fine.

[george1421]

@Lenain OK that tells me that the proxy settings are working for the http protocol. I would also guess if you go to the FOG Configuration page that you get something that looks like this (fyi: I’m running the same version on my production server as you):

{image removed not needed}

OK, duh when I go to the same page as you (to update the kernel) I gets the same warning message Unable to contact server Must be a bug in the code.

Will you update your FOG server to the latest version first (1.3.4) please. Then if its still broken we can go to the devs with this discovered issue.

@george1421
Fine, I will try to update as soon as possible. Thanks for your help.

@george1421
Hello,
I’ve tried an upgrade to 1.3.4, nothing change and worst delayed tasks don’t work anymore… I have rollback with a snapshot.

@Lenain
Here the issue:

And sometime I got a message error from my proxy:

Translate: “You got this page because your web browser is not configured with the proxy setting…”

Do I have to add proxy settings somewhere else?
Thanks

@Lenain I can’t understand how/why this is a fix. I’m going to update my prod instance fro 1.3.4 and see if I can duplicate it. I’m currently on 1.3.3.
