Can't capture image, looks like permissions, but can't see how it could be

[ENorum]

So went through and checked permissions on all of those folders, they were good.

Went through the FTP troubleshooting article, found that the FTP service was misconfigured, I was able to connect and authenticate, but not able to send files to the server. Found the vsftpd.conf had a line that we needed that was commented out:

Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command
write-enable=YES

So fixed that, so now I’m able to connect, authenticate and send files to all of those directories.

However, fog still fails with the same error message.

You mean using a FTP client software? Please try creating files (upload), creating a directory, moving and deleting files… see if all possible file/dir operations work using a standard FTP client.

@sebastian-roth Sorry, yes, using an FTP client.

And yes, I can perform all of those actions using the FTP client.

@ENorum I suppose I should have explained more clearly on what to test using the FTP client. What FOG does at this stage is move the just uploaded image from /images/dev/<MACADDRESS> to /images/<IMAGENAME>. So please try moving a directory like described above (same locations in the filesystem). I doubt this will work.

Please post what you get when running ls -al /images /images/dev on the command line of yor FOG server

[ENorum]

Yeah, sorry. Not really familiar with Linux. I was able to move files and folders around in those folders.

[Sebastian Roth]

@ENorum Maybe there is just not enough space on disk?? Run df -h and post a picture here.

[ENorum]

Had that problem, moved the server and added more diskspace 6 months ago.

@ENorum Well then, I have to admit, I am out of ideas for now. But I am sure others here in the forum have new ideas.

I am still wondering why this is working properly using a FTP client. Could you take a picture of when you move a directory (including files) from /images/dev/abc to /images/test?

Just for something abstract, is 10.2.0.87 your FOG master node server?

Oh, what the hell is that?? image name =v2Office365-SymFix/18 Why is that forward slash ( / ) in the file name? What you have done is allowed in FOG, but I don’t think that is what you really intended here. By putting the forward slash in there FOG will look for a directory called v2Office365-SymFix and place the image in a image directory named 18 This allows for grouping of like Images. If this isn’t what you intended, replace the forward slash with something other than a special character.

@george1421 Awesome man! We had this before and I remember noticing it after staring at the error pic long enough… but not this time. Great you found it!!!

[ENorum]

Ok, fixed that and capturing a new image now, but I have to head home for the day. I’ll update tomorrow, but I bet that’s it.

Awsome guys, thank you. Especially you Sebastian for wracking your brain over it!

[ENorum]

That did it! Thank you guys!
