Custom Full Host Registration for 1.3.4

@JGallo I just had a chance to debug the postinit scripts and they do run as advertised.
I setup a debug capture.
In the/images/dev/postinitscripts/fog.postiniton the FOG server, I just added a single line.dots "Testing postinit scripts"Then from the debug capture console on FOS, I entered
fog
on FOS I gotRunning post init scripts...... Testing postinit scripts... Done...So that is telling me the master postinit script is being called by the fog startup scripts.
In your post init scripts don’t forget if you have to reference your script path using the fog defined variable
${postinitpath}
Such as:. ${postinitpath}fog.postinit -
@george1421 So what I need to figure out is why my fog.postinit script is not working. There is literally nothing in the postinit script other than the comments of what to change and basically the following:
. ${postinitpath}fog.postselect
I went ahead and tested a dots “Testing postinit scripts” and still the post init scripts are being skipped.
I get the following everytime:
*Running post init scripts…Skipped
*Press [Enter] key to continueI do have the debug flags. So something is causing my postinitscript to be skipped. LOL
-
@JGallo So yours is saying skipped. In my case It ran.
If you are running this from a putty shell (I guess even the console for that matter) Press Ctrl-C to break out of the script. At this point we need to understand why it skipped. There is a check in the first few lines of the /bin/fog script that tests the existence of a file/path (stating from memory) and if that doesn’t exist it will print skipped and continue on. That I think is your case. We need to understand why that conditional is causing the postinit to skip.
I need to unpack the inits a work here to look at the code agian.
unpack not needed. Ref: https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/blob/master/src/buildroot/package/fog/scripts/bin/fog
recommendation, when you exit out after the skipped part. key in
df -h
and
echo ${storage}and post the results. It looks like your mount may be failing.
-
Mind trying this patch out? @george1421 Your method worked because you were in an “init” “imaging” needed tasking, but I think the problem is storage information was never passed for registration type tasks.
I’ve fixed this in the working group.
@jgallo please try:
wget -O /var/www/fog/lib/fog/bootmenu.class.php https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FOGProject/fogproject/3adec9a54254a9d466e129417f16163f396c358a/packages/web/lib/fog/bootmenu.class.phpThis should replace your bootmenu with one that will insert the storage information based on the “web” interface it’s passing through.
Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.
Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

True when I was debugging last night I was doing an debug capture. So of course it would have that variable set. Thanks for catching that one!
-
@george1421 After I type in:
df -h
I get:
Filesystem
/dev/rootalong with size, space used, etc. I assume this part must be in debug mode correct? I see Tom recommended something so I will give that a try as well.
-
@Tom-Elliott So I got a chance to try the bootmenu link you posted and I get a chainlink error and could not boot: input/output error followed by the ipxe.org link. This is fixed by re-running the fog installer and then the ipxe booted normally. Not sure if I did that correctly but all I did was run that wget and it seemed like it downloaded the bootmenu.class.php.
-
@JGallo said in Custom Full Host Registration for 1.3.4:
I get a chainlink error and could not boot: input/output error followed by the ipxe.org link
What we need there is to capture this chainlink error. With that patched file installed call the following url from a browser and post the results here. http://<fog_server_ip>/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=00:00:00:00:00:00` That will provide us with the text that is used to create the iPXE boot menu.

@JGallo And this what you get when you call the boot.php file with the mac address I gave you?
If so can you tail the apache error log and see if php is throwing an error. This IS an incomplete iPXE menu, which means that something is wrong with that patched file.
The head of a valid ipxe menu should look like this:
#!ipxe set fog-ip 192.168.1.53 set fog-webroot fog set boot-url http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot} cpuid --ext 29 && set arch x86_64 || set arch i386 goto get_console :console_set colour --rgb 0x00567a 1 || colour --rgb 0x00567a 2 || colour --rgb 0x00567a 4 || cpair --foreground 7 --background 2 2 || goto MENU :alt_console cpair --background 0 1 || cpair --background 1 2 || goto MENU :get_console console --picture http://192.168.1.53/fog/service/ipxe/bg.png --left 100 --right 80 && goto console_set || goto alt_console :MENU menu colour --rgb 0x00567a 0 || cpair --foreground 1 1 || cpair --foreground 0 3 || cpair --foreground 4 4 || item --gap Host is unregistered item --gap -- ------------------------------------- item fog.local Boot from hard disk item fog.memtest Run Memtest86+ item fog.keyreg Update Product Key item fog.deployimage Deploy Image item fog.multijoin Join Multicast Session item fog.quickdel Quick Host Deletion item fog.sysinfo Client System Information (Compatibility) -
@george1421 That is what I get. I will try to tail the apache logs and see if anything I can get there. If I restore the the original boot.php file, should expect different results when calling the boot.php file with the mac address: 00:00:00:00:00:00?
-
@JGallo I would expect your results to be similar to my (unpatched) results. You could always try mac address 00:00:00:00:00:01 if for some reason you have mac address 00:00:00:00:00:00 registered. The key is to pick a mac address that should not exist in your FOG server.

@george1421 Here is what I got from the Apache2 error logs:

@JGallo It looks like line 1168 is causing the error in the patched boot menu file.
From DM: The OP is also using the ldap plugin too. Only worth mentioning since the error being thrown is referencing attemptLogin().
[editor note] I fixed the previous thread to include the error log in a code block for easier review[end note]
-
I’m sorry, you’ll need to install the working branch then. I’ve moved attemptLogin to fogbase now and it appears the changes I suggested, I overlooked that change sorry.
-
So I pushed up RC-2 for 1.4.0 in a semi-official manner rather than have you jump directly on working branch.
-
@Tom-Elliott Thank you. I went ahead and updated to 1.4.0-rc-2 and it seems like like post init scripts are running because I get a message that says Patching registration files and eventually states that it’s Done Patching Registration files. Unfortunately it’s not copying the file I have set up to copy. So we know that the post init scripts are running. Not sure if the copy script is working because when testing a host by trying to do a full register of a host I still get asked questions I removed from my custom fog.man.reg
-
@Tom-Elliott @george1421 This is what I have as far as post init scripts:
code for fog.postinit
#!/bin/bash ## This file serves as a starting point to call your custom pre-imaging/post init loading scripts. ## <SCRIPTNAME> should be changed to the script you're planning to use. ## Syntax of post init scripts are . ${postinitpath}fog.postselectcode for fog.postselect

@JGallo OK the forum really manged your code in the post.
Let go back to basics. Insert this code in your fog.postinit
echo "Installing Patch" debugPause cp -f ${postinitpath}fog.reg.man.fix /bin/fog.reg.man echo "Done Patching" debugPauseIf that doesn’t work then we will need to install the debug kernel parameters again and figure out what is going wrong on the other end. If you see the Installing Patch in registration mode then we know the script is being called.
