Description

Hello,
Since version 1.3, during the installation, the configuration of the DHCP service is not done:
Setting up and starting DHCP Server…Failed!
I must reinstall fog 1.2.0 with the same parameters for run Fog :

• Here are the settings FOG will use:
• Base Linux: Debian
• Detected Linux Distribution: Debian GNU/Linux
• Server IP Address: 10.0.2.15
• Server Subnet Mask:
• Interface: eth0
• Installation Type: Normal Server
• Internationalization: 0
• Image Storage Location: /images
• Using FOG DHCP: Yes
• DHCP router Address: 10.0.2.2
  (When I install 1.3 or 1.4 version the folder /TFTPBOOT was not here. )
  Thank you for your help
  Patrice

Does your fog server have direct internet access or can it get to the internet via a proxy server?

When you install fog 1.3.x and newer you run the installfog.sh installation script from the …/bin directory also in that same directory where the installfog.sh there should be an errors_log directory. There should be an fog_error_1.xxxxxxx file for each version of fog you are installing. Review that file to see if there is something specific that is causing your error.

[Quazz]

It fails because you did not designate a subnet mask I think.

Fill the information in in /opt/fog/.fogsettings

[patrice]

@Quazz
Thank you for your answer, and sorry for my english.
I have first install fog 1.4 on this computer with the subnet mask 255.0.0.0
The install was aborted when it want to configure and run dhcp.
So I install fog 1.2.0 , and The installation completed successfully.
But for the topic, I have reinstall the fog 1.4.0 and the subnet mask missing.
but But the finality is the same, the dhcp does not work.
and the file /opt/fog/.fogsettings appears only when is the fog 1.2 install:

@patrice said in Fog DHCP service not run since fog 1.3:

/opt/fog/.fogsettings

Correct the installer writes this file /opt/fog/.fogsettings at the very end of the install process. So if the installers stops then /opt/fog/.fogsettings is never created.

So to be clear you want to run dhcp on FOG or do you have an existing fog server.

Also if you need to use your native language to explain the issue better we can use google translate to switch to our native language too. Do what is right for you.

@patrice I fixed your post so it was readable in a code block

Nothing appears to be wrong initially. I will check line by line in a minute.

But one thing I find strange is that you have a HUGE dhcp range 10.x.x.x That’s 2 million addresses!! Is that what you wanted?

Is FOG the only dhcp server on your 10.x.x.x subnet?

[patrice]

@george1421
I haven’t the folder tftpdboot when i do the first install of 1.4

[patrice]

@george1421
I have took 10.x.x.x because have see tutorial with it, i don’t need 2 millions adresses, the fog is only on the dhcp server.
I try to install with 192.168.0.x range

Sorry,
I have to go to work, I leave you today
Thank you

[george1421]

@patrice I’m still reading through your config file.

I see your dhcp range is 10.0.0.10 10.255.255.254

But it appears you have computers systems at 10.0.2.2, 10.0.50.5, 10.0.2.15

This makes me think you have an already existing network, but no existing dhcp server (like on router or windows server)??

You have a router at 10.0.2.2, do you have other subnets? I’m just trying to understand how your network is designed so we can get the right answer for you.

I think your fog server is 10.0.2.15??

[george1421]

@george1421 On your fog server can you post the output of this command
ip addr show ??

[Wayne Workman]

@george1421 Once we have the network configuration, any issues with the dhcpd.conf file or other things will stick out.

[patrice]

@george1421
Hello George,
I want to try to remain simple in my explanation:
I had taken the configuration in a tutorial:
The fog server has 10.0.2.15, subnet mask : 255.0.0.0 gateway 10.0.2.2 DNS address 10.0.50.2
the DHCP server 10.0.2.2

I have nothing else on the network
I do not know if this is the best configuration
Here ip addr show:

    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

I can reproduce this segfault error on my machine using your configuration. Give me a few more minutes and I am pretty sure we can figure out what’s wrong with it.

[Sebastian Roth]

It seems like the range is “just too big”. Changing the following line made it work for me:

range dynamic-bootp 10.0.0.10 10.0.255.254;

With that you still have more than enough IP addresses to play with. But please keep in mind that you ought to read and think a little bit about your network setup to not run into issue after issue in the long run. The output of ip addr show gave us another network interface eth1 which is within a completely different subnet. Don’t get things mixed up here…

[patrice]

@Sebastian-Roth
hello Sebastian thank you for you answer.
I’ve 2 network on this Computer, the first ( eth0) for fog server, and the second (eth1) for internet connection.
I changed the configuration line in dhcpd.conf with

range dynamic-bootp 10.0.0.10 10.0.255.254;
but the installation was aborted
when i launch ./installfog.sh (fog 1.4.0) i can’t change parameters since i install fog 1.2.0:

I worked with the OP via TV to help get things fixed.

Once I had an understanding of what he wanted we fixed the subnet mask from /8 to /24 on eth0 and then went and adjusted the dhcp.config file so that it matched eth0 of the fog server. Then the dhcp started OK. After that we upgraded fog 1.2.0 to fog 1.4.0. I checked the .fogsettings with the settings in the webgui and everything looked good when I disconnected.

I think this issue is now solved.

[Wayne Workman]

Well now I have to go and try this out myself…

The ISC-DHCP folks will be interested to know if this range size really is a problem.
