Description

We did a clean installation of FOG 1.4.4 on Ubuntu-16.04.2-server, everything seems working great with the exception that FOG is not recognizing any of the plugins, like “location” or “wolbroadcast”. Is there anything I am missing or a fix patch for that?

I noticed the “location” table is missing from the fog-mysql database. If I create the “location” table, would that fixed the problem?

Please advice, TIA.

@harzuaga So I just spun up my Ubuntu 16.04 FOG VM, and I enabled FOG’s plugin system, and then successfully installed the Location plugin without issue and exactly as I would expect the process to go.

Where in this process does this go off the rails for you?

Also, review this for how to install the location plugin properly:

[harzuaga]

Thank you for getting back. Wayne, the problem isn’t installing the plugin, the problem is when I try to add a new location, nothing happen, isn’t adding any new the location through the web GUI.

I took a quick look into fog database using MySQL Browser, and I noticed the “location” table was missing. So that is telling that for some reason Fog is not allowing the plugins to create new tables on the database.

Any thoughts?

Confirmed the issue and pushed up a fix.

For the time being please do:

wget -O /var/www/fog/lib/fog/plugin.class.php https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FOGProject/fogproject/6717f382177e714c1bd22eb11627133cfd4e0ebe/packages/web/lib/fog/plugin.class.php

This will fix it so when you install the plugin, the table actually gets generated.

I assume that the OP will need to uninstall and reinstall the plugin to get the plugin installed correctly and the required tables created (??)

[Tom Elliott]

@george1421 Correct.

[harzuaga]

@Tom-Elliott Thank you Tom, I will run this on Monday, and I’ll let you know if I ran into any problem.

[Herbo]

Is there any news on this subject. I tryed the fix but the tables still dont get created.

[Herbo]

Yes i did that of course but no success.

[Quazz]

@herbo Did you run the command given that installs the patched file first?

[Herbo]

First i ran the command :

wget -O /var/www/fog/lib/fog/plugin.class.php https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FOGProject/fogproject/6717f382177e714c1bd22eb11627133cfd4e0ebe/packages/web/lib/fog/plugin.class.php

(The filesize changed so I assume the update worked)

Then i deinstalled the plugin.
I can successfully reinstall the plugin but it still fails to create the tables.
I tried it a couple of times with LDAP, WOL and my custom plugin but none of them create the tables.

SERVER

FOG Version: 1.4.4

@herbo Anything in the apache error logs (might be called PHP error log or similar now)?

[Kagashe]

I also have this issue after a clean install, tried the script to patch the new file in but doesn’t seem to have worked anything else i can try?

[marcolefo]

@kagashe I had the same issue but the patch worked in my case.

Just I have uninstalled the plugin before applying the patch.

Just to be sure that you have the good file in place, can you do this ?

cd ~
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FOGProject/fogproject/6717f382177e714c1bd22eb11627133cfd4e0ebe/packages/web/lib/fog/plugin.class.php
diff ~/plugin.class.php /var/www/fog/lib/fog/plugin.class.php
