SNAP IN Trouble with Version 1.3.4 and Client 0.11.9

[Tom Elliott]

How did 0.11.7 and 1.3.3 work? 0.11.8 should be the version for 1.3.3. It was released in 1.3.1 RC 5, so 0.11.8 would have been available for official 1.3.1 through 1.3.3.

Either way, can you upload the client logs?

@Tom-Elliott where can i find the client log?

[asbenavides]

@Tom-Elliott sorry about the mistake on the client I meant to say 0.11.8

[Joe Schmitt]

@asbenavides on the computer with the client it will either be at C:\fog.log or C:\Program Files (x86)\FOG\fog.log

You need to hit Reset Encryption Data on this host in the fog web portal.

The snapin runs and returns an exit code of 0. One thing I noticed is you’re using the stub installer. How come? The stub installer requires downloading a lot of additional files during installation (it’s basically just a wrapper that downloads firefox).

[asbenavides]

@Joe-Schmitt i download it from Frontmotion.com because its the only place i could find the msi for firefox

[Joe Schmitt]

@asbenavides Firefox does not publish MSIs for their software. Firefox’s offline exe installer already has a silent mode: setup.exe -ms (assuming it hasn’t changed). Or see if that place offers an offline msi, and not a stub. Ultimately however, this is no longer a client issue.

[asbenavides]

@Joe-Schmitt okk ill try different methods…thanks so much for your help

[asbenavides]

@Joe-Schmitt

[Tom Elliott]

@asbenavides Just a thought, considering the exe is no longer an “MSI” you might want to remove the template and just add the -ms argument to the “Snapin Arguments” section.

Make the Snapin Run With blank
Make the Snapin Run With Argument blank
Change Snapin Arguments to just -ms

@Tom-Elliott

how long does the client takes to communicate with fog server?
