@Tom-Elliott

Just lyk that I updated the main FOG server to Debian 13 and installed the latest stable release of FOG.

Replication working well now that the OS and FOG server versions match the Storage Node server.

Thanks again

@Valer Hi Valer,

You can see my tutorial on using Secure boot with Shim, and my thoughts on what 2.0 means for Secure Boot with FOG here: http://forums.fogproject.org/post/158170

@Tom-Elliott

I’ve updated my FOG to the stable release and also updated my script with the following three lines, and everything’s fine – the database has been backed up successfully, it’s perfect!

fogApiToken="XYZ=" fogUsrToken="ZYF" curl -ik -X GET "http://$fogServerAddress/fog/system/export" -H "fog-api-token: $fogApiToken" -H "fog-user-token: $fogUsrToken" -o $backupDir/mysql/fog.sql 2>>$backupDir/logs/error.log 1>>$backupDir/logs/progress.log 2>&1

Thanks again for all your hard work on the FOG project!

Thanks @Tom-Elliott !

Perhaps we could include a brief note stating that it is possible the database schema may not need updating.

@Tom-Elliott said in Unauthorized error:

@Jamaal I’m not sure I follow? The database isn’t insecure, it was being able to download the database, or force an upgrade without authorization that was the piece being secured, nothing about the normal day to day operation of the database changed.

Got it, ok thanks for your help today on this.

Shoutout “The Minester”

On the storage node, create a .my.cnf file in root’s home directory:

sudo tee /root/.my.cnf << ‘EOF’
[client]
skip-ssl = true
EOF

MariaDB will try to connect with SSL by default but that’s not enabled on the main FOG server. This is why I had to use the --ssl=FALSE flag when I connected to mysql manually.

The installation succeeded!

@Nono Edit your /opt/fog/.fogsettings file and replace entries of ‘mysql-client’ with ‘mariadb-client’

I suspect they’ve updated the repo to solely exist for mariadb-client, but you had it before that package switch/change occurred so your fogsettings file is just expecting mysql-client always.

I might also recommend removing the existing mysql-client package just to ensure clean flow, though of course get a backup before any such actions.

Works well ! 😊

Works well ! 😁

update the kernals on fog server / nodes

seems to work when copying the directory from another host over to /opt/fog-service and creating a runit file /etc/sv/fog-service/run with content

#!/bin/sh exec 2>&1 echo "Starting FOG Client..." exec mono-service /opt/fog-client/FOGService.exe -d /opt/fog-service -l /opt/fog-service/service.lock

Hi,
I know this is a bit old, but I found it when I was searching for an answer to the following question:

I have prepared USB bootable image based in WinPE. I use it to boot from USB. I have this image in iso file and I use it to place it on USB with rufus software.

I wonder if I can use this tutorial of yours in exactly same way only to use my custom iso image instead of your mentioned WinPE.

I know this may be trivial question and I may just try it, but I am really only beginner in WinPE and fog project.

Thank you for your kind answer.

Hello @Tom-Elliott

Sorry for the delay 😞

I checked what you told me to do. It appears I have a file that I didn’t check : /etc/php/8.4/fpm/pool.d/www.conf
I set display_error=off and now I don’t have all those warnings.

Thank you for your help.

This is perfect 🙂

@GregorS I have 3 Dell Models that are also doing this, but I will try the change to DHCP Boot file.

I will post back when I have an update.

Thanks!

So I am alone ?

@Tom-Elliott

I pulled latest dev-branch version 1.5.10.1856, re-run installer and snapins are working again.

Thank you very much for help.

We can mark this closed. Turns out it was a old/bad snapin package on the old server. I set up Fog with a new DB and everything worked fine. Once I removed the snapins and exported and imported the DB again it all worked as expected.

Thanks for the help.

@Tom-Elliott just bumping this. Is there anything I can do to help? I have some experience building Linux kernels from a few years ago.
